Piedmont Cards / ACE Authenticated Babe Ruth Signed Silver Certificates

Wasn't Priddy the authenticator for GAI when they were in Irvine, CA.?

Looks like it:

Also, if you put in GAI and Priddy in a search engine you come across some other forums that are not too pleased with certain authentication results.

I keep wondering if Mr Priddy will come on this forum and defend himself.
Hard to defend the things we have seen today.
How can you defend yourself when you authenticated 13 Mathewson autographs and 42 Ruth autographs from the same seller.
He can say he thought about it but never wanted to ask about it.
Why try to kill the goose that was laying him golden eggs?

I'd like to see Prisco defend himself.

1. Priddy was the administrator on gameusedforum.com's autograph side. A thread came up with some bad Jeter balls that had been OK'd by him for an auction house. He said that he would look into the situation. Several members asked about him making retribution for the cost, since he had come on the forum saying he now thought they were bad. To this date, well over a year later, he has yet to respond. My point: I don't think he'll be coming here to defend himself.

2. I don't know Frank/Piedmont, I've never dealt with him and have no idea what kind of dealer or human being he is. But two things I've read in these 2 posts stick out to me: he acquired a (relatively speaking) huge group of Mathewson autos, along with a large group of Ruths, all authenticated by a second-tier authenticator with a very iffy past (not only my opinion, just using a basic 2-minute google search), and he doesn't bat an eye! Secondly, after reading the other post twice, I get the feeling he submits his items around until someone says they're good. Neither of these makes me want to buy from him.

Did I hear anyone say US Attorney/Postal Inspector investigation?
Some members of this board have already had discussions with postal inspectors and US Attorneys about ongoing transgressions.
Frank, you can help out here.
Give us the names of the people/places you bought all that bad crap from.
You might turn out to be a hero.
You can write to me privately with the names, I realize that you won't want to expose them here on the board. I will pass along the names to the proper people.

I agree with Richard.
