ASA - Accugrade Coin Grading - PLEASE ADVISE
Hello.
I have sent 10 coins (worth appx. $600) to this service for grading during their 10 for $100 21 day special on 8/22. I have not received anything back and by now left numerous messages on the phone number listred on their site without any reply. Also, it seems that the original number and the address have changed. Has anyone recently had any experience withi service? (My CC has already been charged a couple of weeks back.) thanks in advance. |

Has anyone recently had any experience withi service? (My CC has already been charged a couple of weeks back.) thanks in advance. ASA Accugrade has, in the past, sued many people who made statements that Accugrade considered negative, especially in a public forum, so I doubt you'll get a meaningful response here specifically addressing your question. Many who regularly post on RCC were named personally in several lawsuits entailing many thousands of dollars in legal costs for the defendants. Personally. I'd stick with the one of the top 3 grading companies. That would be, in order of consumer acceptance, PCGS, NGC and ANACS. Not all grading companies are equal, and that incudes, grading gurantees and most importantly, resale potential in the marketplace for coins thus graded. Low grading fees do not mean that the company you might use is the best "deal." From your resume, linked elsewhere on this thread, you seem to be a very bright guy. Why you didn't use due diligence before sending your coins off to ANY grading company is beyond me. I think you'll eventually get your coins back from Accugrade. 21 days probably refers to 21 banking days, so you might get them back in the next week. If you sent them Registered, you can check on the USPS website to see when they were delivered. Ira |

On 29 Sep 2006 04:52:51 -0700, is alleged to
have written: Thank you for your reply. Yours and the one before it were the only ones to address my situation. (ASA will SUE me? For what? I have not made any statements about the quality of their grading - just the fact that I have not received my coins in the time frame advertised.) Don't blame anyone. Some who were sued by ACG were out quite a bit of money before they got dropped from the suit, you really can't blame them for being a bit gun shy. Will ACG sue you for the above post? Probably not. They are having terrible luck trying to sue individuals for saying bad things and they've got bigger fish to fry. But ACG does monitor this newsgroup (Hi Clayton!) and has corrected some of their ebay blunders mentioned here. Perhaps they'll look into your problem and take care of it. You could also try the number for Treasure Gallery from this auction: http://snipurl.com/xmj5 That's ah-collectables new ebay id, and ah-collectibles = Al Hager = ACG. They may be more inclined to answer that phone number. Anyway, if I don't get my coins next week and/or don't hear from there - I'm off to the post office, thank goodness, the transaction was insured. ALWAYS ship insured, even to the major services. Stuff happens.
