<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1599258, member: 66&quot;]The other big name in the founding of PCGS was John Albanese (sp?).&nbsp; After a year he left and formed NGC.&nbsp; Later he left NGC and most recently formed CAC.&nbsp; Is he still with CAC?&nbsp; If not what will he do next?&nbsp; Could he start another new grading service that could give the top two a run?&nbsp; He has three under his belt already.&nbsp; If he tried again would you bet against it?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>One problem any new startup would have is the knee jerk reaction that so many collectors have that &quot;if it isn&#039;t PCGS or NGC then it isn&#039;t any good&quot;.&nbsp; Many collectors would not be willing to even give them a chance, it&#039;s not one of the big two so it has to be wrong.&nbsp; They don&#039;t go looking to see how they grade, they go looking to find fault.&nbsp; Then you have the Kool-Aid drinkers that quote the mantra &quot;PCGS or nothing&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
