The original complaint was posted on CU a while back and it didn't seem to me like a lot of it was proveable. I'm glad the judge saw reason and dismissed it. Guess ACG will just have to improve their standards and work for their money.
Rest in Peace

This is the first time I've seen a judge use common sense in a long time. He needs a reward.

To those who've been around awhile
Did ACG really have anywhere near 8% of the TPG market in 2001? Do you know the outlines of who their suit named individuals who posted on CU?

Here is the information with a copy of the complaint and the amended complaint. I borrowed this link from CU (k6az)

That is a lofty number, but during the heyday of ebay, there were quite a few of their slabbed coins being offered. So my guess would be very close to that number. Many of the major dealers were also offering their slabs both publicly and privately. While I am very happy to see this judge drop the suit, many of the accusations are certianly plausible. Too often the internet allows people to make whatever claims they choose while keeping anonymous.
It is easy to slam others. Instead, I have always tried to promote the good.
Rest in Peace
