    If you're not buying PCGS graded coins then . . . I think you get my drift. image

    My heart goes out to no flipper....particularly those who do bulk.
    (and, I flip....I don't expect sympathy if I lose the bet)

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    I sent some plats in for grading to PCGS. I thought I would do better but these were my results:

    Only 4 70's out of 22 coins and none were proofs. I was a little bummed.

    In this case , why not? I would buy the plastic then crack them. Resubmit to PCGS or even better put them in my empty OGP boxes I have. Cheaper then buying from the Mint.

    Ditto. but you'll have a hard time convincing the Kool-Aid drinkers that this is worthwhile

    I'm one of those people who have done well buying nice coins in all holders. Kool-aid drinkers that overlook other coins in NGC/other plastic due to some bias and inability to grade a coin with your own eyes, is a sure way to overpay for coins.

    I have been selling PCGS graded Platinum coins (both proof and uncirculated) at just under a 5% discount to US Mint prices.

    LINK

    How can I do this and still make a profit? I bought them before the Mint raised prices!
