<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 2888040, member: 5233&quot;]It&#039;s simply a matter of removing some of the subjectivity from the coin for the buyer (read - removing much of the &quot;skill&quot; required in purchasing high quality pieces).&nbsp; If a given coin grades MS65 with PCGS...that means they believe that it&#039;s MS65.&nbsp; That being said, there&#039;s a significant amount of wiggle room within that grade.&nbsp; There are high end MS65 coins and low end MS65 coins and everything in between.&nbsp; CAC attempts to distinguish the quality.&nbsp; A coin that receives a green bean sticker is at least a solid for its grade...not low end.&nbsp; This is what justifies the higher greysheet price.</p><p><br /></p><p>These coins always carried a higher price before CAC came along, the dealer would recognize the higher quality and price accordingly.&nbsp; The problem was, you needed an educated buyer to come along and see that too and agree with the higher price tag.&nbsp; CAC takes that education factor out of it.&nbsp; It gives less educated buyers a tangible reason why one coin is more expensive than the other.&nbsp; It makes the coin easier to sell.&nbsp; Often that is worth the extra fee in getting the sticker for the seller.</p><p><br /></p><p>Not saying this is a good thing...but that&#039;s how it is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
