"The person who consulted with ICG was undoubtedly Mark Scott, not me or James."

Wonder why Mark's name is not on this ICG grading sheet scanned below?

"Also, look at the facts. Our system uses a 100 point system. ICG uses the 70 point MS coin system."

Well gee Steve, I guess the collectors of the world should be grateful to you for pushing 30 more grading points than ICG does.

"They're trying to "legitimize" their system by referring to our book. The reason we didn't do anything about it is that we thought we might sell more copies of our book."

Well that makes it OK. Who cares what happens to the hobby as long as C/W can sell books and make money.

"Would I feel differently if a better company
graded chips properly and used our system as a basis? Maybe,"

Gee Steve, there in lies the problem. you are still pushing that grading system.

"I examined a few of their graded chips and thought they did a horrible job."

Well maybe its time you signed up for the "List".

"except that I'm sticking mostly with slot cards from now on-"

Can we expect a 100 point grading system for slot cards in the near future?

"Gene, do me and James a favor - stay out of our lives and our business."

I was aiming to do just that, until James brought me into this thread.
