[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 481865, member: 112"]Ruben - You say that it is fraud for CAC to offer their opinion on a coin after that coin has already been graded by a TPG. OK - so let me ask you this. You go to your doctor and he tells you that you have an incurable disease. Naturally, because of the seriousness of the situation you go to another doctor to get a second opinion. That second doctor charges you for his opinion - is that fraud ? Now you can describe the same scenario with your lawyer, your pharmacist, your dentist, your insurance agent, your car dealer and your auto mechanic just to name a few. Every single one of them will charge you for their opinion. Is that fraud ? Next, I have been helping people with their coin purchases for as long as I can remember. Some very expensive coins have been purchased on my say so. By the same token some very expensive coins have not been purchased - again on my say so.
