That CD "Report Card" is pretty damm cool. And, it offers a huge array of information that other graders do not provide (and the other guys charge more!!)
I really hope Grade-Tech gives the other big-dogs a run for their money. I, for one, will do what I can to help these guys succeed. I like their product.
People can talk about one error, but I see errors from every grader. I have a mislabelled card from SGC! Wow, big deal!! No reason to to bring the house down. Stuff happens. At least these guys corrected theirs immediately upon notification, and then came in here and discussed it with everyone! (How many graders do that? In fact, even sellers right here on this board often resort to name-calling and smokescreens to avoid the truth. <laugh> But, mostly their "errors" are intentional...)
To quote JFK: "An error only becomes a mistake when you refuse to correct it."
In Grade Tech, I see strong and promising integrity. I also see a far superior product -- not only in appearance, but in the quantity of good, usable information about each card returned to the customer. How many graders tell you why a card graded the way it did? Answer: None (except Grade Tech). How many provide you with a link to photos, scans and a "report card" for each card? None that I know of (except Grade Tech).
I know where my cards are going from now on.
