Global Authority Announces New Dual Certification Service

Bettendorf, Iowa - September 16th, 2009 — Global Authority announces new Dual Certification service for any previously graded card collectible. This unique and first to market innovation enables collectors to receive Dual Certification on their existing graded product. The service will help boost buyer confidence by creating a double stamp of approval. “The service addresses a critical need, highlighting certified collectibles, by adding additional provenance and assurance. Dual Certification by a leading recognized brand adds tremendous peace of mind for the collector” stated Demian Werner, CEO of Global Authority.

Each Dual Certified item receives a tamper evident label affixed to the encapsulated holder. A digital scan or image is taken of every item and is registered to Global’s database for website verification at www.globalauth.com. The population of each Dual Certified item is also archived for information on pricing and rarity. “There are ten’s of millions of certified cards in the marketplace. It also allows collectors to keep the certified product as is, offering just the Dual Certified label. This is a great value add for the collector and the overall marketplace. It’s a welcome addition to our list of services and we are excited about the potential” stated Mike Baker, Director of Grading.
