[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1431068, member: 112"]Problem is CAC goes right along with many of the same "market acceptable" practices that the TPGs use. You see, you'll have a hard time finding anybody that disagrees that when it comes to coins of rarity or coins of greater value, that the TPGs give those coins a grade bump. Same thing goes for coins with famous pedigrees, and stuff like early US coinage, or coins with nice toning. You can find thread after thread where pretty much everybody agrees that this happens. And CAC goes right along with them when these things are involved. CAC also seems to follow right along with grade-flation to a large degree. Yeah, there are the coins that CAC refuses to sticker. But even according to CAC standards those coins are still correctly graded, they just happen to fall in the A category instead of the B or C categories. What CAC needs is a blue sticker. One that says - HEY ! This coin is over-graded ! Do that, and stop following the other practices, and the company would have true value ! But I aint gonna hold my breath on that ever happening.[/QUOTE]
