<p>[QUOTE=&quot;brg5658, post: 2501901, member: 29751&quot;]None of us know what kind of shady dealings happen behind closed doors in the coin dealer world.&nbsp; I&#039;m not a conspiracy theory whacko, but I also realize that the coin dealer markets are wholly and completely unregulated.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is no such thing as &quot;insider trading&quot; in TPG coin grading and CAC reviewing, and it would <b>NOT</b> surprise me one bit to find out that there was some behind closed door policy or even unknown psychological bias that affects CAC reviewers in a possible preference of PCGS plastic over NGC plastic.&nbsp; After all, there is <b>NO</b> way a CAC reviewer can be &quot;blinded&quot; to the TPG brand when he/she has to look at the coin through the slab and look at the grade to know whether or not they agree with it.</p><p><br /></p><p>CAC is no longer just the <i>person </i>John Albanese.&nbsp; It&#039;s also a company, created for profit, and has many financial backers (e.g., Legend Numismatics) and other dealers who peddle and swear by their shiny little green stickers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
