verisleeve grading

[Doug]

Never heard of it, but the holders appear to be like a card saver with a label over the opening. According to the site "With Verisleeve's tamper proof labeling system, its virtually impossible for a label to be removed and reused in an effort to deceive a collector". If it's only virtually impossible to remove the label, odds are somebody will find a way.

Suffice to say, that seller's testimonials about Verisleeve should not be considered entirely objective.

The seller (who is selling all Verisleeve graded cards) is located in Boynton Beach, FL. Verisleeve is located in Boynton Beach, FL. I'm guessing either there's a connection or he's really pulling hard for the hometown grading service.

There's a link to all his ebay auctions at the homepage. Im not sure that's a good business move. Nor is the GAI flip impersonation.

But, competition is a good thing. Hope he makes it.

Isn't it interesting how none of these fly by night third party graders ever post a cv or other biographical information that would allow the reader of the web site to evaluate who they are and what their qualifications are for doing what they do?

The label can't be removed without shredding, but the card can be switched?

This seems an ideal opportunity for the board member who started this service to advertise their new product and address these questions.

I know I've at least heard of Mr. Koonce.

Has anyone seen any of the cards yet? I know I won't buy, without first seeing in person, but I was wondering if anyone has seen any of these yet?

Nice to know the label can't be removed, but a more pertinent question would be can they detect altered cards, and do they know how to grade?

I was also wondering if someone on the board has any connection to this service and if they can detect altered cards?

Most of you know me... and I'm the seller of the current Verisleeve cards on ebay.

Verisleeve is local to me and being run by Rob Butler. He's been a dealer for quite some time, quite a knowledgeable body when it comes to cards. He's given up life as a dealer, actually sold a hobby/card shop he had here in florida about a year ago and has been working on this startup.

I've known him for years and provided about 2000 cards for grading to help his venture get kicked off (and yes I paid for the services, he needed capital).

Its a saturated market and I wish him well, he might be a viable low cost alternative to the big guys for those on ebay looking to have lower value stuff graded for resale.

He's been engulfed with the startup, but I'm working to get him on here to introduce himself to everyone.
