Posted By: <b>runscott</b><p>Seems you are still a little touchy over my GAI post - do you have a GAI investment, or is this just a bad hair day?

Posted By: <b>Donald Johnson</b><p>Not touchy at all Scott. Just my observation when cards are flooded onto the market in a short period of time. Only have 3 GAI cards myself (see my opinion on GAI on the other thread).

Posted By: <b>runscott</b><p>I apologize - I still have a large arthropod lodged up my posterior over the recent SGC flubs, so I'm in a "slabs suck" mind-set. I realize that there are a lot of valid reasons for slabbing cards, but my main interest is protection and presentability.<BR><BR>This might sound goofy, but I think a "grade your own card" slabbing company might be a decent idea - you simply send the card in for slabbing, and the card is returned protected in a high-quality holder with a label containing all information except grade. Kind of like putting a card in a top-loader or screw-down, except it's better protected and looks better. I could go with "authentic" as well, provided "authentic" did not insinuate alterations.

Posted By: <b>J Levine</b><p>I would do that in a heart beat. Send in my cards to be slabbed like SGC, which I think has a nicer presentation than most PSAs, but not graded. Most of my cards would grade below SGC 30 anyway but the slabs are nice and present well...Now if only I did not waste my start up capital on T-212s and T-205s <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><BR><BR>
