[QUOTE="clembo, post: 279237, member: 8033"]One could look at it at that way. ACG was the first and I have NEVER agreed with their grading standards. ACG did indeed exist long before ebay and ebay welcomed them upon their inception. Yes, they may have set the precedent but ebay opened the doors for all of the others. ACG may have even become stronger for a while. Ebay needs to take a lot of blame for this state and one can also look at the way ebay has changed. I can remember when sellers openly ridiculed ACG in ebay auctions. Lawsuits - yeah by ACG. It came to a halt. Try openly criticizing SGS in an auction. Auction will most likely be yanked. Ebay got itself out of that jam with policies. Only problem is that they invited more questionable sellers in by doing so. Now, you are openly allowed to misrepresent coins. Ka-ching! Then people got tired of it and now it's starting to turn the other way. Did ACG start this?- Perhaps. Has ebay perpetuated it? - WITHOUT A DOUBT![/QUOTE]
