    No, but I like their cute little Gem label. I would be wary - it looks like they've graded less than 500 cards (by the serial #), and the first thing stated is "no problem with trimmed cards" - how does the seller know?

    Considering that the card is not even "centered" and gets a "10" for centering would make me go hmmmmm.

    I agree with Aknot. If that is a 10 for centering, the scale must go to 20.

    That looks like the same screw-down slab and gasket (but different label) used by GRA, another kitchen-table "grader" who slabs mainly his own cards. I guess there's a steady supply of doctored cards (and suckers buying them) to keep these laughable enterprises going.

    What's to stop anyone from unscrewing the holder and swapping out the card for an even worse specimen?

    No really I think I will do this myself. I have an (6 Maybe 7 PSA) extra Marino rookie laying around. Im going to "type" up some "crap" label and place it in a screwdown.

    Be advised I will place a disclaimer on the card/auction.

    Can anyone think of a good Grading company name?

    HGC
    "Homeboys Grading Company"
    TTGC
    "Table Top Grading Company"
    IGIMHWWMPJ&EP
    "I Grade In My Home While Wearing My PJ's and Eating Pudding"

    CON - yes. They all have Grading in the name. image

    I'm surprised that with all the do-it-yourself graders out there, no one has chosen CAG (Card Authentication and Grading).

    10 for centering? LOL that really makes you wonder what the edges and surface being a 9.5 really means... PSA 5?
