Looks like NGC has gone to a new two-tier grading system...

Just a special deal done for the Coin Vault. It would be funny if it weren't so sad

This Coin Vault is ruining their reputation by only having one grader and one finalizer like they do.

So, what do you think it grades?

Circulated. They do have a point - who cares what junk silver grades?

[James_OldeTowne]

Yep, I agree with this sentiment. I think for common cheap coins, a grade of "circulated" works admirably.

That is no JUNK silver coin, that is a CC morgan.

 

I think NGC is dumping whatever reputation they may have earned.

 

I also worry about the QC in the slabbing stages.

 

I have 3 NGC slabs with blantant errors in the slabbing process.

 

1. wrong mintmark

2. wrong date

3. wrong denomination

 

To make matters worse NGC wants you to pay for the shipping to return the coins for them to fix their mistake!

 

I wrote 2 polite letters asking about their QC. 2nd letter never got reply. All posts (so far) deleted.

 

What is going on here?

 

Huh?

Mistakes happen in any busineess. How they are dealt with has a big impact on how a consumer reacts. I would agree that in the case of an obvious error on NGC's part they should pay for shipping both ways. I've been shipped wrong items by mail order retailers before. The ones I continue to do business with send UPS over to pick up the wriong item at to charge to me.

 

For the sake of argument, let's say the error occurs on a $1000 value coin. The cost for insurance & return postage is not trivial. Why would I be expected to pay for that?
