Protect the cards that matter
Give standout cards the careful assessment and protection they deserve. Our TCG grading service helps collectors preserve, organise and present treasured cards with confidence.
Professional card care
A closer look at every card
Trading cards can carry personal, historical and collector value. Grading provides a structured assessment of a card's visible condition and gives collectors a consistent way to describe and protect important pieces.
We work with two highly trusted grading providers PCG Grading, and ARK Grading. So when you submit with us, the choice is yours.
Each submission is handled carefully. Relevant condition factors can include centering, corners, edges and surface condition, along with the checks included in your selected service.
- PCG as submission partner with pristine looking laser etched labels
- Ark with pristine looking clear slabs
- Careful handling throughout the submission process
- Condition factors reviewed under controlled professional conditions.
- Clear service options for individual and multi-card submissions

Frequently asked questions
These answers cover common questions. Contact us if you need advice about a particular card or submission.
Which cards can I submit?
Contact us with the card game, set and card details. We will confirm whether the card is suitable for the available grading service.
Should I clean my card first?
Do not use chemicals, polish or abrasive materials. Cleaning or altering a card can damage it and may affect its eligibility or grade. Ask us how to prepare it safely.
Does grading guarantee a card's value?
No. A grade is a professional opinion of condition under the selected service. Market demand and sale prices can change, so grading does not guarantee value or a future selling price.
How long will grading take?
Turnaround varies with the service level, submission volume and provider availability. We will provide the current estimate before accepting your submission.
Can I post cards to you?
Contact us before sending anything. We will confirm the available delivery or drop-off options, packaging requirements and any return-postage arrangements.
