Opinions about GAI

That's a big problem with GAI being able to make it. A lot of their cards are only being bought in order to cross over to SGC and PSA. When that happens if the cards don't cross consistently then people will be more conservative when buying GAI cards the next time. You can do quite well if you're good at grading and know why certain cards might be in their holders. Some cards are easy to grade and will consistently get similar grades from all three services. Cards with subjective issues, major or minor, usually wind up in the holder of the company that will give the card the highest grade. If you don't know much about grading or the card you're looking at and try crossing one of these to a tougher company you won't have much luck. People are willing to take chances in order to make or save a few bucks, but they've got to realize that the people they're buying these cards from might be aware of the same game.
