Ebay needs category for reputable grading services

Frankcoins

The abuses of sellers claiming coins in SGS and Accugrade holders are of comparable value to price guides based on prevailing standards like ANA grading guide, PCGS, NGC, ANACS, ICG is cheating ebay buyers millions!

Look at this garbage...

Worth about $75 but seller claims it's MS69 and worth two points higher than MS67 at $1300. PURE FRAUD.

Ebay needs a category for legitimate grading services such as PCGS, NGC, ANACS and ICG.

The ebay certified autograph categories specifies only certain major authenication services can be used for items in that category. Why not offer coin buyers the same protection?

Who are these comparable grading services

Looking through this feedback it appears that this seller may own SGS?

It is really starting to surprise me on how many new, third-party grading services out there. Accugrade has all but disappeared, but so many new ones have taken their place. NNC, NTC, SGS, etc. With such a flood of them, how can new folks to the hobby not be fooled by them. It really is a blight on the hobby.

They're like the Hydra. CHop off one head, and three sprout up in its place...

I would love an ebay coin category that allows only pcgs, ngc, anacs, and old pci holders. A strictly raw category would be good too, and then a wild west category of crap holders.....
