Default Live Sports Auctions and GAI

I really feel bad for the bidders who bid on this stuff. How are these guys still around?
https://livesportsauctions.com/catalog.aspx

Everything on this auction site is authenticated by GAI. On top of that, most of the balls are signed on "Official League" balls...not OML balls (except for a few like Koufax).
Just look at these Koufaxs:

Everything else to the Puig, D.Ortiz, Pedro Martinez, M.Tanaka, Darvish, the simplified Ichiro ball, ...they all look really bad to me.

How are they still around and why do people keep bidding on here? I thought GAI was shut down a couple of years ago. Did they get revived? http://www.ebay.com/gds/BEWARE-OF-GA...7237007/g.html

I've actually bought numerous of items from them and all has been good. I even submitted several of the items to PSA/JSA and they all have come back legit. Good service, good auction house; just my opinion.

Also those Koufax balls look good to me.

Again the early items from GAI are supposed to be good, so maybe this guy bought items with early GAI COAs. It would be interesting to find out the dates on GAI certs that were good and when they went " questionable".
Personally I buy nothing from GAI .

Those Koufax autographs are horrible.

Those two are not even close to the JSA one, and the two above are not even close to each other.

I will agree that the two Koufax autos in the OP are bad and do not resemble the certed one shown later (or each other).

I will also agree that I won't touch anything certed by GAI or GA.
