For me, I trust Jimmy Spence over the others but that is personal preference. I have bought and sold many PSA/DNA authenticated autographs as well and they are also good. Does not mean that either of them are infallible. It is an educated opinion. No more, no less. if that is not good enough, stay away from autographs.
You may trust Jimmy over all others. But if you send an item to JSA rest assured he'll never see it. It will be authenticated by an employee.
