I really believe that PGX operates under a very tight budget that doesn't allow them to spend the type of money they need to in order to get their name out to the collecting community. this hinders their ability to pursuade collectors to use their services.

Do they need to change this? Positively, or else they will always be considered that other grading company.

I am fairly certain Daniel hasn't done the full marketing package that I described. I seem to recall Daniel saying that he had offered free subs to some dealers in the past as a try out. I don't know to whom he offered the subs or how successful the idea was from a marketing standpoint.

The Overstreet ad should go a long way toward getting their name out there.

well, this will seem shallow and unimportant, but the main turnoff for me wrt PGX slabs is the label.

the information on the label is great, but the look of the thing just seems like something that was thrown together in Microsoft Paint or Word and printed out on Avery labels. and that logo needs a serious overhaul. which of course makes the slab less desirable, even though you buy the book and not the slab...

as Donut says, perception is reality. and as i said, this is a minor issue in comparison to the bigger issues addressed in this thread already. but if you want to be seen as a leader, you have to look at everything, imho

I agree with you Scott, I am just wondering if you know that they haven't tried this. Or did Daniel attempt it and was not very successful at it.

We always listen to suggestions and have made many changes based on customer and forum member suggestions.
