Why. Heritage, WHY?

I get daily offers of some pretty neat stuff. Some beaned, most not.
But ...COOL stuff.
Priced "right"

But VERY predominantly in the "other guys'" plastic.
Yes, I've asked why.

Forget the answer.

I would BUY some of the stuff regularly if it were in PCGS plastic.

Call me picky. Or silly.

Because the consignors had the coins in NGC plastic. Why let that stop you? Just cross them over if they're such a bargain.

Do you not trust your own opinion (or grading skills) or is this your way of saying that it really is all about the holder?

I never relegate my purchases to chance when I don't have to.

They may be a bargain because they won't cross.

topstuf · July 25, 2018 2:05PM

Let's call some dealers I can name and ask if it's all about the holder.

Call me a heretic: Generally, the plastic (PCGS or NGC) matters little to me.

Far more important are the usual suspects (price, condition, strike, luster, color, eye appeal, etc).

Do the principals of Heritage still own a big chunk of NGC?

That stuff will bring moon money.

It doesnt bother me at all buying NGC coins. Having said that, probably 80% of my slabbed collection is PCGS. It all comes down to the coin for me.

The power of the cool aid is strong.

What's your point exactly?

Are you implying impropriety?

Cougar1978 · July 26, 2018 3:10AM

Perhaps somebody tried cross now getting rid of them.

Your hobby, your money, your choice. Cheers, RickO

So you can cross them over, after the juice is paid. That's why.

That if anyone in the world is going to be an active market maker in NGC that it makes total sense that it would be the owners?
