Even TPG graders are human and that is the problem !!!!!!

We can all agree or disagree with the grades that we pay the professianals for, however we all must remember that it is an opinion that we are paying for and opinions differ. I have read about studies done where 3 or 6 or 9 different coins, the number really doesn't matter were systematicly sent to both NGC and PCGS for grading and then comparing the results and time and time again the results varied. I have read in the journals many complaints about coins being graded lower than what the owner had thought they should be, mine included. I have yet to hear "Wow look at this I got an MS70 and any dummy can see that it is a MS68." The grading is what it is until a machine is invented that will scan the coins and compare them to set standards and we probably won't like that either. One bit of advice that I was give by some more knowledgeable members is never crackout crossover that way if something happens you don't like you still have the coin in the original grade and holder. I have found this to be some very solid advice.
