Well Alex, The way i look at it is this. I joined pcgs for a year, (I am going to let it lapse after the year is up,) And it cost a fortune to have it graded. If you ad in the shipping, insurance, cost to have it graded the way you want, and shipping it back to you with insurance, On some pieces, It just isn't worth it. If you're talking about a very rare and expensive piece you bought from someone, I can understand to have it graded for authenticity to give you peace of mind. But to have the Mongolian pieces graded buying from a reputable company, To me anyway, Is not worth it.
