Inspection matters

The details that decide it

Centering is only the start. The surface, edges, corners, and print-quality signals collectors cannot afford to miss — all get a close look.

Find the dealbreakers before the submission box closes.

01 / CENTERING

Centering check

Measured alignment puts a clean frame around the upside.

02 / CORNERS

Corner integrity

Whitening, softness, and tiny bends can become big grade swings.

03 / EDGES

Edge consistency

A clean edge under the right light tells the real story.

04 / SURFACE

Surface clarity

Scratches, print lines, and gloss issues change the call.

Built around your collection

Your cards. Your grading plan.

Card market ready

Sports cards

Modern heat, vintage staples, rookies, autographs, and the cards you keep revisiting in the case.

TCG tuned

Pokémon & TCG

Foils, textured holos, promos, and battle-tested favorites deserve a closer condition call.

Flexible handoff

Mail-in or drop-off

Choose the workflow that fits your collection. The next step is straightforward.
