  • I have to admit, I've been seeing so many of these new services poping up that I'm not sure if I've seen this one before or not. I haven't been able to keep up my notes.
  • Want there a thread about this outfit a while back, where people were saying that their slabs were a little too similar to NGC?
  • For a few thousand dollars anyone can start a TPG service. Actually, if we are talking about SGS you can probably get started for about a hundred bucks. Caveat Emptor.
  • Starting a TPG is only expensive if you want custom slabs and ultrasonic welding of shells. If you want to do it on the cheap, there are at least three types of generic slab shells available on the market for a dollar or less per shell. For sealing the slab you have a choice of using labels as seals, or gluing the shells shut. (Yes several fly by night companies use glue to seal their slabs.)

    Please dont do this, I'm having enough troubles keeping track as it is.
