How do you pronounce 'CAC'?

See-Ay-See?
or
Like 'Crack' with no 'r'?
or something else?
It matters if you want to say, e.g.
"If it don't CAC, you can send it back".
p.s.
The CAC is sort of like preschool... you get a gold sticker for doing a good job.

My Gold Type Set
See-ay-see is how it goes in my head. I don’t know that I’ve ever said it out loud to another person, though, or heard it said.

I like to use it both ways in different contexts, ex:
"Im going to send this coin to see-ay-see"
or
"I think this coin will get kak'd""

Maybe we can have a long and pointless CAC thread, not about the merits of the service or sticker, but about how to say it...
The "Kack" crowd may now have 2 minutes for rebuttal...

KAK
And for the past participle I say C-A-Ced (ˈsē /ˈā / ˈsēd ).
And for non-CACed or unCACed (which is a mouthful), I just call it dreck. 😈
I always reflexively say "Cack-a-lack-a-ding-dong".
But that's just me.
I say kak. Every other person I've heard say it says c-a-c. That does not deter me from saying it how I like however.

I prefer the softer and more gentile "Seeyasee" as opposed the finality of "KAK"... like a hairball that my cat gave up.

If you want to mock it, "Cack" is better.
If you want to praise it, "Ciasi" is nice.
You smokin' CAC or somepin'?!?
I believe it’s pronounced “cheddar”.
CAC don't crack
It's pronounced, "You are ridiculously bored and need another hobby to keep you busy."
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
Another hobby? Getting back into the coins is my 'another hobby'.
I also just started volunteering at a local food bank.
But you are right... i have no idea what I would do if I retire.
Good thing (some of the) people on this Forum are (somewhat) tolerant of my peccadillos.
And I do mix in some 'hardcore coins' topics with my fluff..
Like** Ipecac**, but without the gagging and vomit.

Cack. Just like a cat coughing up a fur ball.
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.
Judging by what the guy in following video says, it probably should be like CaaK

Stupid thread.
I'm twine my best...

A frayed knot? I think sew.
I have used, and heard used, most frequently.... 'kack'.... Occasionally I hear 'C-A-C', however, most people are speech lazy and go with the first option. I wonder what the employees at CAC say?? Cheers, RickO
