From your hands to a certified slab.
Every card follows the same documented process — logged, authenticated, graded by trained human graders, sealed, and returned by shipping to your address with a verifiable certificate.
The process
Submit & Drop Off
Create your submission online, pay, then securely pack and drop off your cards with the packing slip at our collection partner.
Collection and delivery are handled with our collection partner.
Arrival & Research
Cards are unboxed under surveillance, logged, and researched.
Authentication & Grading
Trained human graders assign whole-number sub-grades for Centering, Corners, Edges, and Surface. The geometric mean determines the overall grade.
Imaging & Sealing
High-res photography, then sonically sealed in a UV-resistant slab.
QA & Return
A final quality-assurance review is completed before you collect in person or we ship your cards back.
What to expect
Your submission number gives you live status updates from drop-off to return shipping.
Counted from the day your cards are received and logged at our collection partner.
Every graded card is sealed in a UV-resistant slab with a QR-verified certificate; certificates are publicly verifiable at maggrading.com/verify/.
