OUR GRADING STANDARDS
Every card we grade undergoes a rigorous, multi-point inspection by our team of full-time, trained specialists at our headquarters. We follow strict, standardized procedures to ensure every card is meticulously checked and graded with the utmost accuracy and consistency.
GRADING INFORMATION
We adopt a rigorous inspection on every card
a. 18 zones checks on front and rear of card
b. 4 corners checks
c. 4 edges/borders checks
d. Surface coating checks both front and rear
We do not let any prior grading influence our process. If you send us a card that has already been graded, we will crack it out of its case and evaluate it as a new submission according to our own standards. Your card's final grade will be based solely on our assessment.
Our cards are graded by a small, dedicated team of specialists who work full-time at our headquarters. This commitment guarantees consistency in our grading standards, ensuring that every card is evaluated with the same high level of expertise.
Our comprehensive card label provides four key classifications to give you a complete overview of your card:
1. Card Information
This section includes the card's name, description, its collection set and number. This provides the fundamental details needed to identify your card.
2. Rarity Class
We use a tiered system to classify a card's rarity, providing a clear indication of its scarcity.
EX RARE (Extremely Rare): Reserved for cards with a print run of 10 or less and/or those that are super short prints, often referred to as "case hits."
V RARE (Very Rare): For cards with a limited print run of 11-49 and/or those considered case hits or short prints (SPs).
RARE (Rare): Cards in this class have a limited print run of 50-500 and/or are classified as "box hits."
NORMAL: This classification is for standard, base cards that do not have a limited print run.
3. Rarity Numbering
If your card is part of a limited print run, this classification will be included. For example, 03/25 indicates that your card is the 3rd card out of a total print run of 25.
4. Grading Score
This is the final score assigned to your card, ranging from 1 to 10. A score of 10 represents the highest possible grade for a card's condition.
