Many GAI cards got into holders with numbers and they shouldn't have as they were altered. You really need to be very careful with their holders but I would still put them above some of the others like PRO, GEM etc...If you know cards real well and know what to look for then GAI graded cards can be bargains....as many folks stay away from them (and rightfully so). Their issue was, imo, they started with a great name in grading, Mike Baker, and then he got out of the actual grading and they went down. Then their many fiascos with PR made them look even worse...regards
