WHAT'S UP WITH GLOBAL?

Obviously, people are wondering if GAI is going under, moving or just in limbo for some other reason.

Now, I don’t know if the company is in trouble, but I will say that they might want to communicate what is going on to its customers a little better.

I know if I had a batch of cards in for grading and all of a sudden I saw that its website and phones are not working, I would start to wonder what was going on. If the only thing going on is a simple move down the block, you would think that the higher ups of the company would have tried to prevent any misconstrued thoughts of what may be going on in Globalland.

This whole thing doesn’t make sense to me, but hopefully it is just a move and nothing more. That said, if that is all that’s going on, you would think that they would have a little explaining to do. Grading companies are built on trust and credibility. These latest issues surrounding GAI add nothing to either of these attributes.
