    Kevin It’s there and I just bumped it. It didn’t jump to the top. That happened to me one other time recently as well

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    Why not bump to the top?

    That is odd.
    The thread is stuck on pg 6, on my phone, despite the recent bumps.

    Well, I'm sure our host has heard all the input they need to make a decision. Pretty sure there's nothing new to add. Let's remember we are guests here!

    Probably wanted it to die a slow death. Before the images, I would wonder how many graded coins for a particular date were simply certs resubmitted, and not really there. See something with a pop 50 yet one would never come on the market ... then the images helped sort out how many errors were in the pops. I guess this puts us back where we were before if the take down the photos, but don't fix the pops. That's what the real issue is.

    PCGS made their decision on it, based on feedback they got from large dealers; some of who may, or may not, be large submitters but who definitely have the number to call the batline when they have "concerns"
    From what I read in the thread, coinfacts was too successful and too good and it made it so a certain dealer, or more, had trouble justifying higher prices for coins that had been lower grades at some point.
    So, the complaining about Coinfacts wasn't to better the hobby, it was done as self-preservation by certain dealers.

    Laura took credit for going to PCGS.

    With an interesting reason too. She’s trying to create new collectors and the photos were a liability.
