12500 out of what? 12502? We need a percentage of what they're doing. They're notoriouly known to churn out high PF and MS numbers. What else is new?

Exactly... that's where they will end up momentarily... only for $500 each or two for $950... I'm sure they can give you stretch pay for five easy payments of $190 per month.
And then, once the little old blue hairs leave the planet for greener pastures, their family members will realize the coins might get them $40, if their lucky.

Look out below what? It's not like NGC MS70 2007 SAE's are bringing any real money.

thats why pcgs 70`s command a much higher premium when sold. they don`t hand them out like candy. this is why i never submit across the street

It would be interesting to know the number they buy and if their submissions are for certified 70 coins only. This would screw up the pops. Are submissions cheaper this way?

.....and if you like submitting coins/NCLTs to a TPG that works on a quota to keep the prices artificially high (and thus reinforcing a false notion that a 70 grade is actually rare), it looks like you made the right choice.
All in all, it is still "buy the coin", but I think NGC is more liberal than PCGS
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

Maybe. ....but there are a lot of modern PCGS kool-aid drinkers that claim they can grade moderns and tell the difference between a 69 and a 70, but would still spend several times times as much (give or take, depending on the coin) on PCGS's claim that the coin is a 70, instead of buying a much cheaper NGC coin and "cherrypicking" it for much less.
Many won't do this however, as they know the TPGs won't cross a 70 in the holder, and it must drive them nuts having to have their "perfect" coin wrapped in the wrong flavor of Kool-Aid plastic. I have never seen more sheer plastic only buyers than i have lately with many of the ultra-modern crowd; it now seems like the old adage of "buying the coin and not the holder" doesn't apply to this segment much anymore. IF it did, you'd see many more collectors of these Mint products hovered over slabs at the major shows with loupe in hand, looking for the "perfect" coins that are residing in the "wrong" brand of slab. This kind of "cherrypicking" seems foreign to this group, and they would rather pay far too much to rely on a given service, and hope they got the grade right. sad state of affairs, really.

Take about 10 seconds to think about the big picture I was referring to. It really isn't that hard.
