PREGRADING

Would you like to sell or certify your collectible cards but are unsure of their true condition?

The card’s condition is analyzed according to specific criteria (corners, surface, centering, edges) and rated on a dedicated Pregrading scale.

 

With this expertise, your cards are:

  • Accurately authenticated.
  • Rated according to a clear and dedicated scale.
  • Protected in a sleeve, secured in a card saver, and sealed with a tamper-evident label.
  • You gain confidence and credibility, whether for selling or before an official certification.
