Glyn,
Great point,
Found this on their site:
Q: Can I request “No Qualifiers” on my submission?
A: You can make this request and it could mean that the original grade may lower. Also, while you may request no qualifiers on your submission, it is up to the discretion of our graders to determine if the qualifier can be removed. The qualifier can not be left off in all instances and no refund will be given if we determine that we can not remove the qualifier.
It has been my experience that EVERY time I have requested No Qualifier, they have granted that request and I have sent over 300 cards alone just this year so my track record is good on this point. I also called customer service a few months ago and they told me that in the Registry, that if a card has a qualifier, then it is figured into the equation as a card that is exactly 2 grades lower so you can rely on that if you were wondering.
Thanks for the correction,
peace, mike
