Does special lables add that much to the value???

Email from NGC

Modern Special $20 12 working days

All U.S. coins 1955 to present requiring a special label, including Releases designations and Eagle 20th and 25th Anniversaries. Five (5) coin minimum. 5-coin minimum waived for America The Beautiful 5 oz. quarters.

Why I ask is this level of grading and labeling increasing in price. I thought $17 was bad. Is it because we are all fools. Brown, blue it all the same. My coins which was received by NGC on 12-5 still have not show up as received. Great customer service. Now you can pay more for less service. I send 150 to 200 coins a year some more some less. I use this teir alot. I am not happy about this at all. $3 bucks increase and $8 Handling charge and over the top Shipping fee. To really tee me off a few years ago NGC took away the 10% discount for submission done on line. You have to pay more in your renew fee to receive it. All I can say is I will be useing PCGS much much more.
