"We do not own the rights to copying anything from our book."

....looks like someone should get busy scanning the pages and burning them on to a CD to sell, or better yet, post them onto a website so anyone can view and download them for free...

"Are they actually slabbing chips under these guidlines with the 70 points like in a coin book?"

DUH! They had them on display at Rene's show in January, or did you miss that one? ...didn't think so.

"Why is this so important to you?"

It's important to everyone in the hobby when it appears someone within the hobby has taken actions that may have helped and encouraged the slabbing companies to target the hobby.

...it's a simple question, one that you shouldn't need to look at a contract to remember if you did it or not. Did you give ICG permission to use your name(s) and refer to your guide on their grading chart?
