you would hope but do you know.

if they havent authenticated autographs before and they wont tell you who authenticates for them. then why is their authentication any better than joe bob's authentication that started up last week out of hicksville, west virginia?

they make it a point to NOT tell people who their authenticators are? isn't that a red flag. just because they are sgc, a CARD grading company, now they know autographs? why do they know autographs?

its bread and circuses, the holder looks nice, then they must be competant?

for 8 dollars, repeat 8 dollars an autograph, you hope they would get someone competant.

to open the box, data entry all the information about the submitter and the order, organize the autographed card, bring up all the exemplars, authenticate the autograph, sonically seal the autographs in the holders, and box them up, you think that translates into authenticators who are competant names in the hobby spending more than a few seconds per autograph, at 8 bucks an autograph?

What if its a tough one that requires an hour an a half to competantly authenticte? answer-they won't spend 1.5 hours on one autograph because their business model wont allow it, just like the other services. it's a race to the bottom.
