<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drusus, post: 654430, member: 6370&quot;]You work for a TPG or CAC? You should...with a tactic like that you would be great in marketing.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is laughable. The way I see it is those people who blindly follow trends will jump right on the bandwagon and thank CAC for allowing them to spend even more for a coin to have a so called expert grade the grade. People like you will help them along and make it seem like it makes sense. Dont want to be accused of being &#039;afraid of change&#039; right? Mr. Leadfoot seems to know what he is talking about...look how he types with such authority and tells that guy he is ignorant!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This tactic you use is funny if not transparent. You make it seem like a person who sees this for what it is is &#039;afraid of change&#039; or &#039;afraid of the unknown&#039;. There is no mystery here and no big change....people have been trying to suck a little more cash out of collectors for many many years, CAC just found another way. If I didn&#039;t know it was real, I would think the whole idea was a joke. I don&#039;t use TPGs and I have a problem with them, but I can even half way see why people seek that false sense of security when they buy. CAC? I would laugh if it wasn&#039;t that they are serious. I am sometimes amazed...just when I thought I have seen every imaginable way someone can trying to make a living off collectors...something like this comes along. Go figure...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now of course I must add that just because its ridiculous doesn&#039;t mean its wrong. I would never buy an Obama sticker coin, I think they are deplorable...but of course if they can make money and they aren&#039;t breaking a law...its certainly their right. Just like with TPGs, there are people who simply will not buy a coin that isn&#039;t slabbed...they put their trust in these instead of learning and trusting themselves...that fine and their right. I expect there will be a few more companies like CAC soon...there is money to be made from collectors with more money than sense.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Its like anti-virus programs. They make billions on our fear of a virus. These people make money on our fear of getting taken. So China churning out fakes is only good news to them. It shows the level of fear when people will now grade the graders...or grade the grader who graded the graders grade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
