GAI pack crossover to PSA experiment

I decided to crack out 7 packs and send to PSA. The results are as follows:

GAI 6.5 - Altered Stock
GAI 7 - PSA 7
GAI 7.5 - PSA 7
GAI 7.5 - PSA 7
GAI 8 - PSA 7
GAI 9 - PSA 8 (This pack was stunning but upon close inspection had a small pinhole in it)
GAI 9 - PSA 8

Overall, I am happy with the results. The pack that came back as altered had a cert beginning with 101. All the others began with 103.

    Packs are the only cross-able GAI commodity.

    GAI - what could have been! Started with promise, but towards the end the slabs were worthless. They could have dominated the pack and box grading market.

    Did you crack them out and submit or a true crossover?
