Just browsed ebay and noticed the high end stuff but there were "authentic/altered" cards and other lower grade ones as well, all of which seemed consistent. The high end was very nice by the way, possibly ringers to attract attention. Looks pretty good so far. If done the right way, they can compete, and I noticed known advertizers on their site, along with probstein (?) selling some high end card.

P.S: they'll advertize here if they have any sense.

Jeff-let's clear one thing up, if your name is not Grady you couldn't be born to grade (exceptions may be made if your mother's maiden name was Grady and you are willing to undergo some genetic testing).

I would take a pass on the Banks if I were you. It is in that ISA holder for a reason.

I don't collect recent issues any longer and have always stayed away from cards in the minty ranges. Looking at the Banks card shown (without it in hand) I would have no clue it's been trimmed from the scan. I might not know even with it in hand..... An "off brand" of TPG and unusual condition suggests an extra level of caution be applied.

When I matched up that Banks with a PSA 8.5 on ebay the two cards appeared to be the same size. I'm no image expert, just cropped and resized the images using a very old Powerpoint (MS Office 2k) until the name "Ernie Banks" on both cards appeared equal, and compared the height and width of each card and they appeared to be equal (considering the tools I was using).

If you crack it out and send it to one of the big three grader, please let us know the results.
