ISA Grading Company?

[2dueces]

Does any one recognize the owner? Seems like someone on CU knows who it is, but I have never heard the name.

The ISA principle is Jason Koontz (sic), who has been a large volume dealer for more than a decade.

I believe Jason also bought the "SCD" grading name a while back but this is going from memory and I could be wrong on that as well

I don't know Jason Koonce, but he has a lot of employees for a company with $0 revenue stream.

(I am willing to work with Customer Service and Shipping, however.)

Is there anyone in this hobby who doesn't deliberately try to create a false impression to improve his company's image?

As we all know, the "owner" of this "company" reads this board. Why hasn't he come on and refuted my belief that he puts ads up of auction companies on his website without permission?

Edited to add: I just noticed REA's "ad" is no longer on ISA's website. Nice to see Rob has his lawyers working on Saturday.

I like how on the grading scale a "Mint 9" card is described as being in excellent condition.

So the speculation is that we have a large volume dealer now operating a grading company?

Why not. If it has been ok for SGC, why not ISA?

Ha! I was just about to post the exact same thing but figured I better make sure nobody else did first. Got a little chuckle out of me.

Thank you Rich. I had never heard Jason's name in the same sentence with a TPG. With 12 years of experience I would have thought his name would have come up before.
