That 1919 Canada 1c is supposedly located in Wauchope, just next door to Port Macquarie, so I'd say you could guess the sellers' 'other' ID's.

so much hate ? what ever happened to supporting the new firm ?
i mean a bit of competition in the industry never hurts anyone :)
as long as this shane guy uses positive selling tactics and refrain from unwanted actions its shud all be good right ?
Or are we all just against change ?

we are only against shady business practices / individuals we are not against change buddy , any one who grades ( TPG ) and sells his own coins can not be trusted to grade fairly and what training has APCGS had in grading to the sheldon scale (zero ) , pcgs uses 2 people to grade and a third grader as arbitrator if the 2 people grading a coin differ |

Well, chacha, regarding grading companies, put it this way:
PCGS is a globally-recognised, NASDAQ listed company worth close to $200 million based in Newport Beach California. They have graded over 30 million coins.
The other company that is frequently mentioned here is based in Port Macquarie, and is hardly known outside of the Facebook forums. Just to clarify, that company is not related to PCGS in any way.
If you want a coin grading service with a global reputation, stick with PCGS (or NGC). Hate them or love them, they're the standard.

APCGS GUARANTEE
APCGS guarantees that all coins/banknotes/tokens graded 2015 and beyond (items starting with the the following barcode numbers 15 or greater) will fall under this following agreement. This guarantee insures that most items authenticated by APCGS will be covered by this agreement.
Terms:
*All encapsulated Australian coins/banknotes/tokens graded from APCGS with barcode number 15 or greater are covered under this agreement for authenticity as well as the grade assigned to them., what this tells me is that APCGS ADMITTS IT GOT ALL THE GRADES WRONG ON COINS GRADES BEFORE 2015

I would NOT consider the negative comments made by a plethora of different collectors about APCGS as "Bullying" at all. From the onset this particular TPG company ( and I use the term TPG very loosely here) was purely a rort, even the name of the company implied it had "Connections" with PCGS. Not only did they grossly overgrade coins they may have "Tarnished" and devalued the coins in NGC/PCGS slabs at the same time. Maybe if they had used a different name and had recalled all their previous overgraded slabs and graded them accurately they may have earned some small amount of credibility. None of this has happened and even if they did it now it would be far to little and far to late. Bullied NO Shunned Yes. |

APCGS also like grading cleaned coins , which is a BIG NO NO by the top rated TPG like PCGS and NGC |
