Posted By: <b>Elliot&nbsp; </b><p>Does anybody have any thoughts (positive and negative) on CSA. They seem to have a new case, and grading methodology. Lately, I have seen a number of nice cards graded by them. Has anybody had cards graded or bought cards graded by CSA?

Posted By: <b>ockday</b><p>Elliot..Unfortunately, 2-3 years ago I bought a bunch of CSA cards because the "price was right." Well the price was wrong because most of them turned out to be trimmed or altered in some way not to mention overgraded. I have also seen the new fancy CSA Elite holders but personally I wouldn't touch them with a 10 foot pole!<BR>Alan

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>My experience has been mixed. I took a deep breath and bought a really nice 1954 Williams in a CSA case and it was ok, but I got an altered 53 Bowman Spahn, a trimmed T206, and a "near mint+ 7.5" Koufax with a bend in it. I would never buy their stuff again unless I had the chance to view the card personally.
