BobI've got a lot of cards in GAI holders and can tell you two things: cards in GAI holders don't bring as much as PSA and SGC and also GAI does NOT grade more trimmed cards than SGC and SGC, in my experience. I have had cards come back as trimmed from GAI which are now sitting in PSA and SGC holders.
I think GAI gets slammed here a little too much, sometimes rightly so, but often unrightly so. You do get a little bit of a bump for cards with beautiful fronts and back problems from GAI but otherwise their grades are very similar to SGC. SGC murders back problems.
