I couldn't help it.

 

Can't resist an attempt to be just a bit :devil:

And Lehigh's Lakers is feelin' a bit low at the moment.......

 

Bite your tongue, I am a Bulls fan. I hate the Lakers, but until OKC wins something, I will refer to it as a Laker game. Ramon Sessions sucks. He better start looking for accommodations north of the border cause he is gonna be in the CBA next year. He is a point guard but he can't dribble, pass, or shoot jump shots. He can drive to the hoop on a scrub but can't finish when he gets there. He can't stop anybody on defense and when he fouls them they still make the shot. In coin terms, he is dreck!

 

Tongue bitten, LOL........

 

That seems to be the word of the day along with pardisulation.

 

And LA is history.....for this year anyway......

Mets announcer Ralph Kiner. Q: Who was your favorite "Kiner's Korner" guest? A: The guy I had the most fun with was Tug McGraw. One time he gave me a haircut, he was in the military service. It took me about six months to get over that. Q: Most reluctant guest? A: The first player to turn me down was Curt Flood. Cleon Jones wasn't willing to let his personality come out, but after he was on 40 or 50 times, he was actually doing the commercials.

 

If that's the case, then you and the many, many, people rely on CAC's opinion because you don't trust the opinion of the TPGs.

Totally incorrect. That's as ridiculous as statements by others that is someone doesn't submit coins to a TPGs they have nothing to say about the TPGs.

Both are incorrect.

 

From CAC's website:

WHAT THE CAC STICKER MEANS:
• Verified. Your coin has been verified as meeting the standard for strict quality within its grade.

• Guaranteed. CAC stands behind our verification by making markets in most actively traded coins.

 

Kiner's Korner was best after Ralph had consumed a few too many adult beverages during the game.

 

You guys remember Bert and Harry Piels? (AKA Bob and Ray).......

 

My take on this as a CAC authorized dealer, is that in many, many cases the CAC sticker is very useful.

I am not an expert on Standing liberty quarters, frankly I would like to hear from Mr. Kline, with the stove pipe hat, who is a true expert with a photographic memory.

Someday another company may be formed to compete with CAC, maybe a QAC, with a "platinum" level for those PQ specimens.

 

All you Mets fans? UGGGH. Nothing matches "The Scooter" with his "holy Cow!"

 

How are they useful Owle?

 

They increase the resale value of the coin.

 

Interpreted as meaning, it's a marketing tool for justifying inflated prices. Gotchya :thumb:

 

Agreed! 100+

 

There are some coins that will never earn a CAC sticker, and I posted on overgraded coins that "earn" a CAC sticker. They have gotten hundreds of millions worth of coins, don't you suppose they are going to make mistakes? And those dealers who are infamous for dealing in uncertifiable problem coins, will always have their twisted argument that they don't submit to the grading services because they have seen a lot of overgraded and problem coins in the TPGS holders, they don't want to "feed the beast", blah, blah, blah! The grading services may not be even close to perfect, but they do keep a lot of crap out of the real marketplace, thankfully, and now CAC is doing a relatively good job of maintaining independent standards.
