It seems to be true, as he no longer appears on the page showing their list of experts.

True. Steve Grad and another authenticator, Brian Sobrero, reportedly gave notice a couple of months ago and their last day was yesterday.

Bill Corcoran and Kevin Keating are now full-time autograph authenticators for PSA/DNA.

Thanks Steve for the information...

Didn't know about Mr. Sobrero...

So I wonder if these two gentlemen will soon be self-employed ??

I would rather do business with Steve Grad over PSA. At least you would know he was looking at it. I wonder why he left?

I heard that they've been fighting over Jerry Lee Lewis autographs.

Steve would no longer be a pawn star.

He still might be, They will just leave PSA out I would guess.

His Pawn Stars gig is his own as far as I know.

I wrote a piece on the staff changes at PSA/DNA:

Nice summary Steve. Really does seem like a big loss on the entertainment side of things. I wonder when Steve's new company will be up and running. Do you think this points to a sign of trouble for PSA?

Psa should change their name to 50/50 now!
