<p>[QUOTE=&quot;1865King, post: 8437827, member: 103207&quot;]I looked at many responses to the question of CAC and MAC stickers.&nbsp; Never heard of MAC and could really care less.&nbsp;&nbsp; As far as CAC they are a legit company run by a decent person.&nbsp;&nbsp; However, the idea of a CAC sticker wasn&#039;t to make the coin more valuable it was only confirming that CAC agrees with the grade.&nbsp; Unfortunately, this has backfired to a point.&nbsp; Dealers are now using the CAC sticker in marketing as being the only coins to buy.&nbsp; Thus, pushing the ask price up.&nbsp; Great marketing tool but somewhat miss leading.&nbsp;&nbsp; There a plenty of coins that don&#039;t have stickers on them that would qualify for a &quot;sticker&quot; but haven&#039;t been sent to CAC to look at.&nbsp; What&#039;s going to happen when John A. is no longer involved with CAC.&nbsp; He was involved with the founding of PCGS &amp; NGC before moving onto starting CAC.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other thing to worry about is fake CAC stickers.&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen them so I know they&#039;re out there.&nbsp;&nbsp; Sometimes on real slabs and sometimes on counterfeit slabs.</p><p>You need to remember a sticker is only a sticker and a sticker is very easy to copy and make.&nbsp; Even if the sticker isn&#039;t quite right most people only see the green or gold color and not really take the time to look very close at the sticker.&nbsp; This is another reason not to pay more because of a sticker.</p><p><br /></p><p>It always seems to go back to the main concept in buying coins.&nbsp; Buy the coin and not the plastic and now not the sticker.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
