I think quality control took a huge hit after Priddy left. I'm sure there are some that don't like Priddy or wouldn't use him. However, I can say from my personal experiences, about 90-95% of signatures I purchased that Priddy certed have also been certed by JSA or PSA/DNA without issue. This percentage holds true for some PS/DNA signatures I purchased that were then submitted to JSA. So, from my own perspective and experiences, I thought Priddy did well most of the time.

I believe GAI was using GIZMO (remember him) as their authenticator after Priddy left!

Yeah, I guess it's as worse or worse than I expected. I was thinking of reporting a couple of these GAI's to Ebay, but I doubt it would do anything. It sounds like either they're "in-bed " together or at least turning a serious blind eye. I wouldn't even know where to begin with reporting all these also.

Everytime I go to the Hofstra Shows on Long Island twice a year, it seems as though I'm seeing more GAI junk. Last time I saw some bad Mantle and DiMaggio STAT as well.

They also have had ACE at some recent shows ( I don't know anything about them, but I think I've heard they weren't any good as well) Please correct me if I'm wrong on that.

I agree I have seen a lot of these things at shows too. It is disappointing to see all that fake stuff. For me, if I see those things in a dealers case, I simply won't do business w/ him. just move on and find those few people that are honest to the hobby and the collector.

While watching my Yanks lose tonight, I went ahead and reported those ones to ebay for what that's worth. I also reported a couple others. Here they are for your amusement.....

I felt I should clarify, I don't know any of these sellers. I'm also not accusing any of these sellers of any wrong doing as they may be unaware these aren't authentic.... I felt I should make that clear. I'm merely trying to point out bad autos being cert'd by GAI

the Mantle/Dimaggio sold for $115. If it were for real it would get $500 - 750. What a shame, that person just threw that money down the toilet.
