    I guess that leaves you open to send full payment or "virtually full"
    payment if you win the lot.

    Oddly enough, there is another Florida dealer selling HCGS slabs on ebay as well, but they are a different variety of holder. I've got one now and I'm going after the other one.

    Visited their website. They claim to have been in business since 1993, specializing in grading British Commonwealth, that they began grading modern US in 2001 and earlier US in 2005. This is interesting since no one here has ever heard of them, and the slab shells they are using a a generic type that only became available last year. So far they only seem to be available from a couple of Florida dealers, but the grading service claims to be located in Canada. Their website has a bunch of "links" that aren't active. The link to their new 2006 slab is active but goes to a page with nothing on it. They do have an email address, but it isn't a clickable link.

    What's funny is that their walkthrough is 2 days to PCGS' one, and they charge only $1 less image

    At least they're realisitic... the 2006 slab preview imageimageimage
