    Hopefully you kidding....right? Stay away if unless you wish to render your cards virtually worthless. But why have them grade your cards when you can do it your self: Grade Your Own

    Sure you can.

    I buy bags of dirt all the time. As a general rule, you should replace the dirt in your flowering annual beds every 2 years image

    1. Ok, Yes you can buy dirt. lol

    2. GMA says they are a leader in the field. Leader? Maybe the leader of unneeded companies. I mean, their name is GMA Grading Minus Accuracy, right? lol

    3. Any company that will allow you to give them the grade and they slab it or they will sell you the holders/labels.......

    They are worthless and will always be. They will be used by scammers (trimming etc) ,people who want to deceive,the average collector who wants his collection slabbed cheaply and the unknowledgable. Not for those with knowledge in the field or for a trusted opinion.

    This is from their site.......

    Option #2: You do all the Work
    January 12, 2008
    Our second option that we offer is you purchase the holders from us and blank labels. You do all the work. Your minimum order is 500 holders per order. This option gives you ultimate control of your own business. Once the holder are purchased they are shipped out the next day and everything else is left up to you.

    Note:** for this option you will need to purchase an Ultrasonic welder to seal the holders. A horn that fits our parts and an air compressor for the welder. The outlay can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $25,000 depending on which machine is purchased. We do not sell the machines but if you choose this option we can give you all the details of who does sell these units.

    This is the more expensive option but if you would like to do on sight grading this option is available.

    Option #1

    Option #1 - We do all the Work

    This has been the option of choice for many of our current customers that have decided to open their own business. They have chosen this option for one of a couple of reasons. Here is how it works.

    1. You grade the cards and then send them to us to do the rest.

    2. You play a flat fee.

    The story is that Billy Ripken came clean many years later that he actually wrote that obscenity on the bat knob himself, to distinguish his BP bats from his gamers, as well as other players' bats in the rack. He only used the "teammates played a joke on me" story to deflect the blowback at the time, as he "supposedly" was unaware that it was legible or that they would potentially use the photo.

    I don't know if I buy that story but it is done now. I'll take your word on it and assume he was simply that stupid.

    can we all just please focus and not lose sight of the fact that bobby was talking pop tarts to someone who made a comment over 13 years ago and hasn't even logged in in over 8

    Come on, Bobby. Watch the language...

    I gotta commend you guys, though. You were quoting POP TARTS before I even saw and edited Bobby's post. Nicely done, folks, nicely done...

    Sorry Todd. I'll try to clean it up. I did think the pop tarts stuff was funny too.
