Global Authority Grading
 
Is anything they graded considered reliable or basically assumed trimmed or altered on everything ..I know GAI people said the early stuff was better..but for Global Authority is it basically all bad?

Pretty much. And don't submit anything to them for grading unless you never want to see it again.

If you see a good card in a Global Authority slab it is there by accident.

I found out this the hard way. It took me a long time to get my cards back. Once I figured out the company is actually in the owners garage and got his personal cell # getting the cards back became much easier and got them returned almost immediately. Got a great learning experience and even though I got charged the grading fees the cards came back to me in the same penny sleeves and top loaders I sent them in. I was actually happy about them not putting my cards in their slabs.

I only sent to them because part of my order was some 1989 Fleer Bill Ripken saw cut cards that only they grade.
