The Process
Arrival & Research
Your cards are unboxed under video surveillance and logged into our system.
Authentication & Grading
Two senior graders + AI verification assess centering, corners, edges, and surface.
Imaging & Sonic Welding
High-res scans are taken before the card is sealed in our UV-resistant holder.
QA & Shipping
Final quality check, then securely packed and shipped back to you.
