At least they didn't sweep any of the coins

You mean peel and sweep.  That has been a worry that they at some point will have a rougue employee who who wait for a good "batch" to come in and hit it hard.  Sounds paranoid but this exists for any company you send a coin to.  Just takes one dopehead to get his hands on a couple hundred thousands of dollars to wipe out your stack

How about not using any coin grading service at all as long as you have eye(s).

Anacs altered their grading behavior in the past which sucks in addition.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

There are a lot of reasons to want to slab cryptocoins, as much as any other type of coin.  I think what most are upset about is that we had a nice thing going with ANACS until they decided to alter the process to the degree they have.  Granted, not perfect, but it was tolerable.  Now they've tanked the whole program for us.

So at this point there is either the ICG option or keeping them raw.  So I guess collectors will choose one or the other at this point.

It just completely lost its professional appearance. Not sure why Anacs would want to hurt their brand like this, unless they just want to get rid of the whole crypto grading thing.

As I have noted a few times, it's actually like they want to ditch us as customers, but also just take our money and not do any QC if not.

Paul DeFelice is a fucking lying prick, and I hope he gets fired, as I'm writing a letter to his boss outlining how he fucked the whole program over with his lies and delays... Fucking idiots should have kept grading under the old labels until they were ready. Instead, they held our coins hostage, and gave us shit and/or lied when we complained, now they have a huge backlog to deal with. Fucking morons of the highest order.  

BTW here is his twitter. Feel free to yell at him as I did yesterday via phone - Am I really the only one who dares yell at the fucking douchenozzles for fucking us over for months? Huh

Agreed, that new slab looks terrible.   I don't understand how they look at that and think it looks professional.   I'm actually OK with them not certifying the bitcoin value for legal reasons.   The scams that have happened on here with Alitin and such put them at risk for a lawsuit if the coin says "funded".

Maybe some good will come out of this.   Maybe they will see these complaints and make new holders and the coins graded in these will become "Ultra rare ANACS butt-ugly slabs".

No. They won't do any of that. I talked at length with Paul DeFelice yesterday, and explained all this shit. Here is the result:

1. Regarding slab "Warning" - It's for new people so they won't blame anacs. I questioned the actual use of that in court, then he got REALLY defensive. I told him, "anyone buying crypto coins should know this already" but he doesnt' care, it's about protecting new people (Sounded like new people meaning old men who collect normal coins lol).

2. The slab color will not be changed from Green, nor will the text be changed to white for proper visibility (That's a hard NO on both, straight from the scumbag liars mouth).

3. The most I have gotten is a "Chance" to return my coins for holo fixes, and a reholder for the hair in my slab.

4. They seriously don't care about us - After I got pissed at him, he tried to send all my coins back ungraded.. Fuck that, I paid them, so I said grade them, then I'll send them all back for repair since your hologram is shit now. 

Fuck Anacs from now on.....  Sad

@owlcatz , you are right about the fact that we should all complain.
That might be the only thing to make them review their service, and show some more professionalism towards their customers again.

Now they are being ultra assholes and sending all my coins back registered usps instead of UPS which will take more time and effort to receive properly. Even a larger order that would normally be sent UPS is now USPS. Fuck these guys, let me know if I'm alone there? Tongue

Yeah.....not sure what might have caused them to do that.   Wink

Still, they have conducted themselves horribly over the last few months.  I wouldn't be shocked if they up and decided to stop accepting crypto submissions altogether.  Which is fine with me since I will never send another coin to them.

The new ones are so ugly it almost seems they don't want crypto coin business, if that was the intent I think they got what they wanted.

I've requested the name and mailing address of mr. DeFelice's supervisor via support email, after asking why they are shipping everything like this now.. Will update next week, I think Monday is a holiday, not sure for them. Tongue

I don't really have a problem with the new green slab design. The overall quality of their work is the problem. Badly graded coins, badly placed holograms, general lack of professionalism etc.

I just ran into this a couple weeks ago except the package was only going a short distance.  I was under the impression Registered was a higher level of quality than Priority but I haven't seen it recently.

It's tracked the whole way, and only specific people can deliver registered mail as well. That's why it takes longer, but you almost never lose registered mail.

Registered is the best if you are not in a rush. Not only is the package signed for every time someone handles it, but it is also stored in a safe at each location. USPS Registered is the safest way to ship in the USA hands down. I do agree having to show up at the post office is a hassle, but with the value of these coins it is well worth it imo.

I get it.  Definitely a nice thing to be assured of getting your stuff.  That said I've had it take over a month to get packages back from PCGS.  I don't care how safe Registered Mail is, a month is just ridiculous.  FFS we can blast cars into space but we can't get a package coast to coast in under a month?
