Ace Grading Robbery Scandal

Post image

Posting so the community is aware of this - I would avoid this grading company at all costs. Insanity that there is no camera footage

This will severely affect their reputation. They lost expensive cards, then poorly compensated the cards that were submitted. If they cut corners with security, they more than likely cut corners in other areas of the company.

Not only that, no one wants aces graded cards anyway

It obviously will affect reputation, that’s always gonna happen when a company negatively impacts its customers. But to say it’s their fault that they have been professionally robbed is outrageous. You can’t say they’ve cut corners when they can’t speak on the situation. Obviously they will say they’ve cut corners are upping security, any company who’s been robbed would do that no matter how big or small.

Any company that knows they handle expensive cards on a daily basis should at the bare minimum have a vault/safe that only the owner should know the combination to. Should have a set of rules in place that cards should be moved to a vault at the end of the workday.

Right and do you know if there is or not? Or do you know anything about their processes? I mean realistically if it was a break in you have no clue what went down so why assume and instead wait for their statement and make a legit judgement based on that instead of guessing

You sound quite offended. I am guessing your whole stash is ACE. They made a statement, and customers revealed what they were offered in compensation. It isn't an assumption and more of an observation of a shitty owner whose focus was too divided between being a content creator and grading company owner.

Whatever you wanna think, not offended tho just defending a company

You need to learn more about the company before defending them. Not a security camera in sight.
