GAI - Global Authentication
Posted By: OldOriole
Beckett's grading simply cannot be compared in the VINTAGE card market. They have not graded enough cards and are not players in the Pre-War market. This shows in a quick check on eBay note not a single beckett graded pre-1930 card and only ONE in the completed section. I don't know if they are good, bad, or in between but they clearly have not cracked into this market. Many people who collector modern cards seem to prefer them (probably because of the name - I think we all remember saying in our younger,uneducated days "What's Beckett on this card?"),and I've noted they even get a slight premium. But, the vintage market is a different beast and Bekett is nowhere to be found. Also, GAI is a fine company and whether you like them or not, clearly should not be mentioned in the same breath as inferior companies such as Pro, etc.
