Insurance Protection

You may declare the maximum value based on the value of your card. For instance, if you used "Value Service," your maximum declared value would be $499.00. The insurance rate is 2% of the declared value, which means that if you declare a card for $499.00, you will pay an insurance cost of 2% of $499.00 = $9.98 per card.

Minimum Card Grading: Minimum Card Grading refers to the number of cards that must be graded in order to receive that service. So, if you choose Value Service, you must grade at least 10 cards. In this case, the most you can pay for card insurance is $9.98 per card or $99.80 for all cards.

Insurance protects you if the card is lost or damaged during the PSA's transit or grading process. You will only receive insurance for the card that is lost or damaged, such as if one of the ten cards you send is damaged by PSA. You will receive a $499.00 insurance payment.

Note: In addition to a numerical grade, some PSA graded cards also carry a Qualifier to identify specific characteristics of the card. Following is a description of the six PSA qualifiers, 2 of which are required, and 4 that are optional. (MK = Marks | MC = Miscut | OC = Off Center | ST = Staining | PD = Print Defect | OF = Out of Focus) For More PSA Grading Standard Information. Visit PSA Official Website (See Link Below)

PSA Grading Standard

Disclaimers: Only Pokemon and YuGiOh TCG Cards are serviced by us. If we handle the grading for you, there is a 20% surcharge. You are responsible for both shipping and return costs, as well as any insurance declared on the forms, which is non-refundable. If you use the PSA official website, you must abide by their terms and conditions, and we are not liable for anything that occurs during the process on their website and your grading procedure because we do not charge or profit from it.

Effortlex Pre-Grade

We offer a pre-grade process in which we provide insight into the card's condition and assist you in determining whether or not it is worth grading. We also give you an estimate of the rating you might receive from PSA.

The card's grading is determined by CENTERING, CORNERS, EDGES, and SURFACE.

(For example, CENTERING: 8, CORNERS: 8, EDGES: 10, SURFACE: 10 = FINAL GRADE: PSA 9 Mint).

[((8) + (8) + (10) + (10)] / (4 = 9)

The cost of the Effortlex Pre-Grade Process is $5.00 per card. Within 24 hours of completing your order on our website, you will receive an appointment schedule via email or phone.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please keep in mind that cards pulled from packs and placed in sleeves will not be in perfect condition. In fact, the majority of the cards pulled from the pack are in PSA 7 (Near Mint: NM) - PSA 9 condition (Mint: MT). It's Difficult to Find PSA 10 GEM Mint

Pokémon cards have a better chance of getting a higher grading than YuGiOh cards because they have better printers. Many YuGiOh! pulls straight from the packs will have a blemish or minor scratch, especially Ghost Rares. (Because it is difficult to determine, we do not pre-grade Ultimate Rare YuGiOh Cards.)
