TMCD75 Valued Member United States 245 Posts	Posted 08/21/2016 10:25 am I've got some GSA dollars I need graded, four to be specific. I see where NGC has a entry level price of $39 and then one they term the most popular, for $149. With such a price gap, which one should I buy and why Report this Post to the Staff

jgfindring Rest in Peace United States 1380 Posts	Posted 08/21/2016 10:45 am With the $149 membership you get a $150 grading credit. If you use it, it makes the membership free. They must count on a percentage of new members either not using the credit or only using part of it. Report this Post to the Staff

BuckeyeCoinGuy Pillar of the Community United States 711 Posts	Posted 08/21/2016 1:36 pm Assuming the cost to grade a coin is $25 exactly and no shipping, you'd be able to grade 6 coins with that $150 credit. I can't imagine not wanting the $150 credit if I had more than a couple of coins to slab. Report this Post to the Staff
Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 08/21/2016 2:08 pm I'm putting together an economy morgan submission to drop off at the NGC table at Long Beach if you'd like to tag in on it with your GSA's TMC. Unless you really want to get your own acct and start submitting yourself that is. Just an offer. Pm me if you like If you do want your own account I suggest either getting an ANA membersip for $30 +/- because you can submit to NGC as a member of the ANA, two birds mentality OR the $149 tier as you get all that $149 back in NGC "money" Edited by Cascade 08/21/2016 2:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 08/21/2016 2:09 pm Be warned though that new submitters can get very confused the first time or two submitting until you get familiar with the rules and how to fill out submission forms etc. Edited by Cascade 08/21/2016 2:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff
TMCD75 Valued Member United States 245 Posts	Posted 08/21/2016 4:51 pm Thanks guys!! Thank you, Cascade, for the offer but I think I'll just get the ANA membership. It sounds like a good deal. Edited by TMCD75 08/21/2016 4:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 08/21/2016 4:56 pm Sounds good. With the ANA membership though there is an extra step. After you join the ANA call NGC customer service and tell them you just joined the ANA and what the steps are to submit to them. If I remember correctly they have to send you a form by email and you have to send it back then they set you up with an ANA submitters account. Welcome to the TPG jungle Report this Post to the Staff
