[QUOTE="torontokuba, post: 2044082, member: 56793"]The common occurrence is buying a raw mint coin, having a membership to a TPG, grading the coin, increasing the value of your coin by doing so. Now, lets say that at least 40% of your submitted coins end up with a favorable and profitable grade. Same thing should be possible with CAC, but, they seem to have started out as an exclusive club, went public access, withdrew from public access and now I'm hearing of a waiting list, along with meeting specific criteria, prior to future acceptance. I'm just saying that nothing good that you have to pay for, should be this unpredictable, difficult and confusing. I believe the membership control is the reason for the current higher prices on green beans. Saturate 40% of the market with them (which seems to be the goal), and they will end up in half price bins, like some TPG coins. That belief would be one of several factors that hinder my interest in the green stickers. For a comparison, doesn't NGC and PCGS each have approximately 40% of the slab market?
