Anybody heard of CEC?

I have seen some notes on ebay lately that have been slabbed by CEC - Currency Evaluation Company. The notes that I have seen have noticable folds, bends, and wrinkles yet all are graded 70 and labeled "perfect new". Does anybody have info or history with this company or is this somebondy just making up their own slabs?

If you can see the malidies through the holder and the holder say "70" then their is obviously a problem somewhere..run man...run!!

I am not buying, I don't care what the holder says the notes are not CU. I am trying to add alink, never done it before but here goes.....http://cgi.ebay.com/2-1953-B-UNITED...-BILL-448-/270617297964?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0

 

I know appear to have figured out the link-I just did cut and paste, and I think I hit paste twice. Damn big thumbs!!!

I did ask a question about the grading company lets see if there is even a response.

 

That note you posted looks like it's been through water or some liquid! At least no one is overbidding...

 

The yellow and black of that label looks suspiciously like Star Grading Service, maybe CEC is the paper arm of SGS-- or just as bad at any rate. Buyer beware.

 

For anybody looking to invest in high grade paper money there are really only two players
That would be PCGS or PMG there are several out there but when it comes to my money
And trust there it!!

 

Can't find any website for CEC, that there is a bad sign

 

A CEC discussion on eBay forums... pretty funny stuff: "Word on the street is that CEC stands for "Calls Everything Choice"."

and another from CU

 

Here,s another bad sign no population report,s or registry! A BIG RED FLAG!!

 

The SGS of Paper Currency.

 

Maybe if I send a legitimate 70 bill it'll come back 80!
