How to submit cards to us for grading
STEP 1:
Collect Information
We will need the following information
- Name
- Phone Number (recommended if we need to contact you)
- Address (only if requesting service by mail)
STEP 2:
Bundle cards into groups based on grading service
- See our Grading page for available services.
- If you would like us to assess your card and recommend a service, please write “Recommend Service”
- If card has an autograph, whether you want autograph grade
- Whether you want our complementary card cleaning (wipe-down) service
Note that you do not need to provide details on each individual card.
Please indicate which service you want for each group of cards, or if you would like a recommendation instead. If it is not clear as to what service, auto-grade, or cleaning a card needs, your grading submission may be delayed as we will have to contact you. Here is an example below:

STEP 3:
Safely package your cards
You can use any holders you wish but we recommend toploaders, one touches, or semi-rigids to protect your cards from getting damaged during transport.
We will supply the appropriate holders for grading when we send them off to the grader.
STEP 4:
Deliver the cards to us
There are 3 options you can use to deliver your cards to us
- Schedule an in-person appointment with one of our ambassadors through their contact methods or booking links here
- Mail the cards to us. Please pack your cards securely to prevent damage in transit. There will be return shipping costs if you wish to have your cards sent back via mail.
- Visit us at a card show. We are at all major sports collectibles shows across Metro Vancouver region

We will contact you via email if there are any problems with your submission
Once your cards are ready to be sent off to the grader, we will send you an email with scans of the cards ready to be sent off. Click here for an example of a pre-grade assessment email.
STEP 6:
Invoice
We will send an email with an invoice for all the grading services. If you requested recommendations for services, we will invoice you according to our recommendations.
The invoice will also list which card is to be sent with which service. If you need any adjustments, please let us know and we will send you an updated invoice.
STEP 7:

- have been sent back to us
- have been scanned by us
STEP 9:
