GAI 1st graded, are these worth more?

I took a chance when GAI first started taking submissions and sent in a bunch of cards. They graded many of my cards tough and I also did not have the eye for grading then that I do know. That leads me to my question...Are GAI 1st graded worth any more than the card in the same condition no given the distinction?

That sticker I busted out of a BGS 6 meanwhile GRRR.

No difference in value than the same grade without "1st Graded." Sorry.

thanks jr, I thought as much but wanted some opinions on the topic. Was it an idea that just didn't catch on?

People sure try to make something out of that "1st graded" thing though... people sending in busted up mid-90s inserts to get that card to be the first graded as a 5 or 6 and then go "GAI FIRST GRADED 1/1!!!!!!!!!!" in their Ebay auctions... so sad it's almost comical
