    Judging by the quality of that listing we can only assume that NGC and PCGS are shaking in their boots.

    I'd worry that I'd never get my coins back if I sent them to this "service".

    The ad should at east have a sample slab so people can see the plastic they are getting.

    Notice on the submission form you grade the coin.....

  • I actually started wondering about what gmarguli said. Just think how easy it would be to set something like that up and get people to actually send in coins to a bogus grading service and oops, never get them back! Hmm...

    Well marketed introduction and such a glossy brochure to advertise...
  • How many of you are going to send in for cross-over service. I'm sure they'd upgrade a PCGS coin and they don't have to worry about authenticating them. (If they send them back)

  • That's not a grading service, that's a raiding service.

    in life, i have discovered that anything with "tru" or "smart" in it's brand name is guaranteed to be crap.

  • I don’t know about you guys but I always use “professional” services that list in all Caps. If they type in all Caps they must be a good place for me to send money. image

    WE ALL KNOW THAT CAPS COSTS MORE.

    I'd like to take a moment to thank my sponsors for paying for that capitalization...

    The "caps-lock" light on keyboards isn't enough for some of these lunk-heads. I propose a keyboard that makes an annoying sound while the caps-lock is on. That might solve half the world's problems...

  • He said he would be posting pictures of the slabs in a couple days.

    He missed the book though, he'll have to wait for the second edition.
