1. Authenticity Check (Pre-Grading)
Before a card is graded, we first verify its authenticity. While we carefully examine each card, authenticity checks are based on our independent evaluation and are not guaranteed.
2. Detailed Inspection (Grading)
Once a card passes our authenticity check, we carefully inspect its surface, corners, edges, and centering using reliable tools.. Each aspect receives an individual grade, and we assign an overall grade on a scale from Acceptable (1) to Flawless (10):
Our Grading Scale:
| 1 – Acceptable
| 2 – Played
| 3 – Worn
| 4 – Fair
| 5 – Good
| 6 – Very Good
| 7 – Excellent
| 8 – Near Mint
| 9 – Mint
| 10 – Flawless
3. Sealing & Protection (Post-Grading)
After grading, the card is sealed in a durable plastic slab with a strong adhesive for maximum protection. The case features:
| UV Protection to prevent fading over time.
| Crystal-clear transparency for full visibility from all angles.
| Impact-resistant plastic to shield against dust, moisture, and damage.
| Secure fit to prevent movement and protect edges and corners.
| Each card receives a unique serial number, barcode, and QR to check its information.
