Default GAI - Global Authentication

Posted By: Kevin

Actually, GAI is inferior, mostly because they come up with really goofy ideas such as grading packs and boxes and then hire people who don't really know how to grade or much about the material that they are grading.

For example, they hire Mark Murphy to authenticate packs, yet he was fooled by those ridiculous Topps Holiday Rack Packs that he was selling a few years ago. Anybody who can get fooled by those has no business authenticating anything.

GAI cards don't bring much of a premium, and the only reason the graded packs do well is because they don't have any competition.
