I stumbled across a card on ebay, and it is graded by Accugrade, Inc. Sportscard Authentication. I did some research on the company and it seems that they mostly do coin grading. Does anyone know if they are reliable in there card grades?

Thanks any help is greatly appreciated.

I don't think this company is in business at this time. Stay with PSA/BGS/SGC and you will be fine. Off brand graders only bring your card into question and actually can become a liability when going to sell. Buyers think you are trying to hide something.

The card I am interested in is a vintage basketball card. It is graded by Accuscore and I was hoping that it is authentic because of the grading. If I were to buy it, I would crack the case and send to PSA most likely. Can I trust that the card is authentic in a Accuscore case?

Card is probably authentic (unless it is a MJ Rookie) but there are no guarantees that it has not been altered (trimmed, re-colored, etc.).
