Good words Jim!!
If we as collectors do not take a stand here, we are in deep trouble.
The grading system is a "SCHEME" to get in your wallets.
I found it interesting, that this whole thread came about over a "FEW" words that Jim P had in a lenghty and 99% positive review of the book. I believe it would have ended there if the authors had not rushed to the defence of these few words. I wonder why they found it so important to vigoriously defend a few words and 9 pages in their book. Could it be that these 9 pages are the most important pages in the book? Could it be that these 9 pages are the seed that is meant to change the face of chip collecting?
Just wondering!!!!
