Seeing as how he is labeling his own product with wild abandon (whether it truly deserves it or not) while you got a 1 out of 20 shot of getting one yourself tells me all I need to know about this venture.

I predict we will see more from them soon. And I think they will make a good run at it. A lot of people use CAC for coins? We shall see.....

What is the point of applying a purple label to a card Beckett already has graded Gem Mint?

I will let them answer questions for themselves. I spoke with the owner very recently. He understands the uphill battle. I told him I don't need his services and a lot of board members don't either. That said, there are more coin collectors than card collectors and CAC seems to be doing fine. Maybe the 9.5 is a high end 9.5?

A high end Gem Mint? Head explodes, as Bill G. said.

If this business wants to succeed, IF it starts getting popular, the #1 thing he should do is hire an impartial grader. After seeing this sticker on the Johnny Bench PSA 1 with all the numerous flaws it had leads me to believe he IS NOT impartial. Like Leon, there might be a need for this in the future. PWCC already got the ball rolling with their HE stickers. When you are trying to get yourself established NOW is not the time for half measures.
