*** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***

I was just reading Coin World's article about slab varieties and it mentions the book made by Conder 101 called Third Party Grading / Certification Services & Slab / Certificate Varieties. I have looked for the book elsewhere without avail. Is there anyone out there (including Conder 101) who is willing to sell me a copy?

The book is not available. The last (only) auction I know of for a copy sold north of $200. There is at least one standing offer for a copy.


Best bet is to join the ANA and BORROW their copy. Take lots of notes.

I don't mind paying $200 for it. Or $250 for that matter. Any takers? Counter offers?

I tried sending Conder 101 a message but I was not allowed.

So, if I get to 50 posts am I allowed to send PMs automatically? I guess I will find out because this is my 50th post!

There is no mailbox system built into the forum. A message from a member will come to your normal email at the address you used to register here at CCF.

Who is familiar with Conder 101's book called Third Party Grading / Certification Services & Slab / Certificate Varieties? I have not heard back from him. I would like to buy a book.

Condor101 wrote the book. I don't have a copy (that I'm aware of), I have so many books in storage it's hard to know exactly what exactly is in there anymore, though for the past 2000 books/catalogs I've been putting them in a database I created and... It's not in my database.

Here is another short write up on it by David Harper of the NBS from about 2 years ago.

It's on my "watch out for/BUY" list though.

There is a lot of slab information/history (or has been in the past) on a CU Forums thread. Perhaps ask for a link over there. You will be amazed at how much data is in one thread.
