Better Chances getting it slabbed??

Was wondering what people thought about this question...Are the chances better of getting a coin slabbed, for the grade you want, if you pay the 100 dollar 24 hour service at a show then the regular mail-in 15 days?

    No.

    The service you choose has nothing to do with the grade you get as much as it has to do where your submission gets put into the "waiting" line.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Do the graders know what grading tier that a coin was submitted under?

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    Not in my humble experience.

    I would expect not with the exception of the bulk graders which may be a totally different operation.

    But thats just a whacked out guess!

    Your grading skills determine this. If you know how to grade the grade will be as you expect or darn close to it.

    If your premise were true then you would have undermined the entire paradigm of third party grading services.
