I suspect that NGC's re-enabling of PCGS graded coins back into its system and NGC's dramatically improved collection system software enhancements has likely brought MANY collectors back or to NGC. Personally, as an owner of coins from both grading services (as I'm sure most people are) I was disgusted that I had to be caught between two seemingly warring grading services which forced collectors like me, who had coins from both grading services, to have, at all times, two partially listed registry sets, neither of which could ever be complete. However, NGC finally restored the joint NGC/PCGS listing service and, for that reason, I have "one complete set" of my listed coins. This has caused me to drift away from PCGS and return to buying more NGC graded coins again. Moreover, I am now free to buy the best coin, not just a holder that will be listed toward completion of my collection. Clearly, NGS wins this battle and maybe in the long run the war. NGC's decision to add allow PCGS coins to be listed was a wise one. It gives NGC the appearance of being focused on the betterment of both the individual collector and the hobby. In the long run, that strategy will drive interest and people to NGS's website, increase advertising revenue, and create more profits. Smart move all the way around.
