I gather they were a now defunct grading company? Were they legit? Would you feel comfortable buying a high end pre-war card they graded? Thanks for any knowledge you can pass on.

In my experience they were not not legit. Lots of trimmed cards graded as if they were true to size with perfect edges and corners.

Still grading...for themselves and friends. I think out of Florida, now. Company has changed hands several times but always been owned by a skilled card doctor.

The original CSA was actually very good. Now, not so.

.. the old old CSA graded cards were okay ; I have a lot of graded post-war , no worries... the new big bright glossy hologram style ???... The cards really look sort of a bit too perfect.....too short or too narrow to the eye.......picture "Battlefield" owning a grading company....

When CSA started, around 1996, in London Ohio (sort of close to Columbus,OH) they slabbed cards from local collectors who could drop cards off for grading and pick them up without shipping cards. The slabs looks sort of like PSA holders, with red and white flips.
There are alot of good cards in holders from this era. Most of these cards have been regraded by now. In the late 1990's I regraded a decent amount of these cards to PSA successfully. Most cards in other CSA holders are problems. |
