    In my opinion, it would have to be EBAY'S grading!

    about 80% of the people selling on ebay have no clue about grading cards!image

    They grade reprints, cut outs from mag's, recolored and trimmed cards.

    And the best part of Ebay's grading is that if there is no grade for the card, they will make one up!

    My favorites are (VG-Mint, EX-Gem Mint) and some old time classics (super, beautiful, blazer, sweet, mint for its age and "best one anywhere")

    Hope this helps!

    depending on what cards you buy , i would stay within the big 3 PSA, SGC and GAI

    if you are into modern stuff, you should be safe with BGS as well.

    Basically all the "kitchen table" graders will grade trimmed and fake cards. They're just selling a holder and a grade, they don't actually try to do any accurate "grading."

    now for real grading companies, that might grade counterfit cards, i bought the mickey mantle how to stop a fake book on ebay and they said pretty much anything in a PRO grading case is suspect.

    atleast with the mantles

    Just my 2 cents, but maybe before you start calling established members "abolute morons" you could do a little more research.

    Speaking of liars and idiots, this is the guy who dreamed up the NGS scam and tried to legitimize it by posing as someone who was checking it out. When caught and identified as just another school kid goofing around on the Internet, he dropped the pose and got out his squirt gun. Just in case there is anyone here who has not yet got a nice laugh out of the other thread.

    Despite all this, I don't think he should abandon the NGS idea. Maybe PRO would even finance the venture, since they are probably tired of being the worst graders known to man. NGS would bump them up a notch.

    It is nice to know that there will be no humor involved at NGS. It was a joke get over it.

    Actually, there is a thread over on the Beckett boards about some bogus 1988 Cal Ken Griffey Jr. cards that were graded by Beckett's cheap service, BCCG.
