Frequently asked questions

Do I need a PSA or CGC account?
No. We handle the submission on your behalf using our own account — you just hand over the cards and we take it from there.
How long does grading take?
Turnaround depends on the service level you choose — see the tables above for each company's current estimated turnaround time. Faster tiers cost more but return your cards in days instead of months. These are the grading companies' own estimates and can shift with submission volume.
Can I submit Pokémon and other TCGs?
Yes — sports cards, Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, Disney Lorcana, and other major trading card games are accepted by PSA and CGC, subject to each company’s current eligibility requirements.
Are grades or card values guaranteed?
No. Grades are determined solely by PSA or CGC based on their own standards, and card values are set by the market. We can't predict or guarantee a specific grade or resale value.
When do I pay, and what if my card is worth more than I declared?
Grading fees are due in full when you drop off your cards. If the grading company determines a card exceeds the declared value limit of your selected service tier, they may assess an upcharge — that additional fee is your responsibility and must be paid before your cards are returned. You're responsible for providing an accurate declared value at submission.
How should I prepare my cards before drop-off?
Submit cards in penny sleeves and semi-rigid holders — Card Savers are preferred. If a card doesn't meet submission requirements, we may re-holder it for you.
Can I change or cancel my submission?
Once a submission has shipped to the grading company, it cannot be modified or canceled.
What happens if my cards are lost or damaged?
We handle every submission with care. For PSA and CGC submissions: once cards have been shipped to the grading company or a carrier, we're not responsible for loss, damage, delays, grading outcomes, or carrier-related issues.

Grades are determined solely by the grading company. Grades and outcomes are not guaranteed. Payment is due in full at drop-off. Turnaround times above are estimates provided by PSA and CGC and are subject to change without notice.

Checkout is required before submitting your card details form, to avoid delays in processing.
