FIVE PCGS OVERGRADES

rhedden · May 25, 2005 6:18AM

So they are charging extra for the damage? I will take a screwdriver and put several really nice gouges in all of your gold coins for $125,000 any time you want.

Looks like a strike through. the guy is a little off his rocker, IMO. MS68 for a MS modern gold is about as low as they go and with a strike through "as struck" the grade seems appropriate.

itsnotjustme · May 25, 2005 6:22AM

They look like strike throughs. Since it is as struck, there is no reason to bady bag. Perhaps the seller is someone from ACG with a grudge?

BigAl · May 25, 2005 6:22AM

VF at best

rlawsha · May 25, 2005 6:22AM

Hmm...

Item location: hurricane land

LeeG · May 25, 2005 6:29AM

What's his beef? Has got to be more to this story.

streeter · May 25, 2005 6:33AM

Now that's a bitter seller

How much did that auction cost to list unless it was free listing day?

Russ · May 25, 2005 6:35AM

<< Looks like a strike through. the guy is a little off his rocker, IMO. >>

Agreed. The seller is clueless.

Maybe he can get it assigned a number like "speared Buffalo"

tjkillian · May 25, 2005 6:43AM

He is clearly stark-raving mad! He thinks that PCGS is perfect and if they make a mistake, then the coins have 100x the value?

Crazy.

This is someone with an agenda. Feels the heat of trying to sell overgraded raw material, so he must do what he can to trash PCGS.

People like that just give us more to talk about here.

$4.80.

Edited to add: He has it in two categories, so make that $9.60 plus 20¢ for 10 day listing.

I'd have to agree that there is some kind of agenda going on. Cheap way to slam PCGS. Hmmmmm, who has a vendetta against PCGS? Let me think..........

Russ, you ain't that ticked off are you?

dragon · May 25, 2005 6:58AM

LOLOLOLOL.......yet another brainchild of Ebay, LOLOL.

VAMs4U2BuyHere · May 25, 2005 7:16AM

Strike thru error...

Obviously somebody with an agenda against PCGS. I wonder if the coin might have even graded MS69 or MS70 if not for the strike thu???

Auction states 5 coins but only has photos of one coin. I'm willing to bet he overpaid when he bought it, probably sight unseen with no return policy, and is plain old P'd off.

jonesy · May 25, 2005 7:19AM

That guy is an Idiot.

scher · May 25, 2005 7:46AM

I am so with Jonesy..what an idiot..

nwcs · May 25, 2005 8:33AM

I'm with Bruce. The guy's an idiot. Wannabe???

BigMoose · May 25, 2005 9:04AM

See what happens when you give Uncle Nutsy access to a computer!!

Russ · May 25, 2005 10:23AM

So, I send this guy an eMail that says:

<< What you have pictured is a mint made strike-thru. It is NOT damage. >>

And, he responds with:

<< Attempt to convince pcgs of that. When & IF you do, feel free to contact me, chump >>

Russ, NCNE

mozeppa · May 25, 2005 10:40AM

russ!..........you shouldn't be such a chump

streeter · May 25, 2005 10:43AM

<< Attempt to convince pcgs of that. When & IF you do, feel free to contact me, chump >>

I see his prozac has taken effect and he has calmed down.

markglicker · May 25, 2005 10:43AM

Wonder how much shipping is?

Russ · May 25, 2005 10:49AM

So, I respond to that one with:

<< You're the one that doesn't know the difference between a strike-thru and
damage, and I'm the chump? LOL! BTW, the members of the PCGS forums are
laughing their asses off at you. >>

And, his retort is:

<< I know far more than you and pcgs put together. >>

This is fun!

Russ, NCNE

nwcs · May 25, 2005 10:52AM

It's a riot now!

streeter · May 25, 2005 11:03AM

RUSS

Is he masking his ebay addy too?

How do you spell AGENDA?

Russ · May 25, 2005 11:06AM

<< Is he masking his ebay addy too? >>

Nope. But it's Yahoo, which is easy to hide behind.

Russ, NCNE

geb209 · May 25, 2005 12:21PM

Notwithstanding that it's a strike through, I agree with him/her that 68 is a too high of a grade for the coin.

Shamika · May 25, 2005 12:45PM

Hmmm...

The guy is crazy if he thinks that's post mint damage. But MS68 is certainly too high in my opinion.

Considering the severity and location of the strike thru, I'm thinking MS67 at best. And even then, I still wouldn't want it.

Bochiman · May 25, 2005 12:52PM

Hey Russ,

Can we get your title changed to CHUMP now?
Maybe slip some chocolate to Carol and flowers to SM1 to do it?
(or is that the other way around....either way....

)

BIGDAVE · May 25, 2005 1:42PM

Boy Does that make my 2 Fake cameo's worth $225,000 mine are realy Fake

WaterSport · May 25, 2005 9:33PM
