assumed £5,000+ values for a 70 will decline the more that appear
anyone sat on a 69 might be be the best time to flip now if there are an abundance of 70's floating about 
plus if everyone grading is looking to sell as soon as they get them back, expect a load to enter market/ebay/auctions at once - thus offering more available for purchase, thus lowering value as everyone who wants one will be able to get one.
once these grading figures become more common knowledge this will also further shape perceptions, appeal, price someone will pay 

I would like to show off all my massive stack of Bitcoin

anyone awaiting gradings - looks like things are going well

NEW RELEASE ⬆️ 
2oz Matte Silver. Only 250, all PR70s. This should do well for those who want it’s sister coin. 🤔 
@PaulSeen this?

Think someone got a reasonable deal - sold for £6,451 - not to bad if it grades well 

Still a c**p price for what gold should be at, but OOOHHH !!
look at the numbers are £1,234.56 !
Can't wait for it to be £2,345.67 on its way, ...............to the moon ! 

I put a folded $10 inside the flip, worked last time 😂

My personal opinion is like it or loathe it, grading is the future for british numismatic coins. We are trailing the US market which is years ahead of us, yes its a bigger market but it doesn't have the depth of history and rarity present in British coinage where some of our coins trace their history back to the global dominating british empire and earlier, everyone knows what a sovereign is globally.
Not that long ago you required experience to establish the grade of a coin and so it’s value vs another coin. Coins were kept loose in beautiful cabinets and handled by experts. This limited the market to a small very small, niche group, numismatists and it controlled the price, arguably holding it back.
Grading rewrites the script. Graded coins can now be and are bought by institutions, big investors, banks, pension funds, etc who have absolutely no idea about what they are buying other than it is a global market that is proven and they can now buy from a menu, where the ‘stock’ has fundamentals that can be analysed so a known and understood entry & exit point can be planned. This I believe is why you see the gulf between a 69 and a 70. It has nothing to do with a tiny mark or hairline on the coin, but investors who have no interest in that side want the best of the best as its the most secure end of the market to diversify their portfolio into. 70’s / the highest possible grade is a market in itself.
this trend for 70’s / highest grade available screaming ahead has rippled and we see it in all types of coins and ranges, not that I think these big investors are buying much outside of rare high grade and desirable sovereigns and very special coins (unas, 3graces and the older patterns) but that doesn't matter, the trend and protocol is set and I think its here to stay and high grade rare and / or desirable ‘safe investment’ coins are on an exponential rise with a long way to go. To get a feel for where I think we are heading just watch the next platinum night at heritage and the US (and world coins, its not only the US) easily making high 5 figure and 6 figure sums. Coins that arent anywhere near as rare or as historically important as a lot of  british coins. But what they all have in common is they are all graded and can be ranked.
as our market grows, confidence builds and the highest grades become extremely expensive I think the lower grades will catch up and there will be a difference between them rather than the current attitude being if its not a 70 or maybe 69 its a failure (or whatever is the highest grade known for a given coin vs its lower graded equivalent)
There are plenty of other markets like this which allows for diverse and secure investment portfolios outside of the traditional stock market.
time will tell, but I think british coin collecting will be a very different place in 10years and high end coins in beautiful old mahogany cabinets will be a thing of the past, sadly.

Chards and me dont get on because I don't like them selling items they don't have in stock, so other dealers get my business that don't use this practice   
Their choice how they do business but it is not for me, other seem more than happy to wait an undisclosed amount of time 
If i'm committing to buying something i want it in a few days, not a few weeks, months or even a years time
