Staged. Transparent.
Never off a guess.
Nothing is charged against a value we've guessed at. Every charge lands only once the number it's based on is confirmed with you — inspection when your card arrives, restoration on a quote you approve, grading on the final result.
Inspection
Charged when your card physically arrives. Non-refundable, but credited toward your invoice if you proceed.
Restoration
Flat $20 under $100, then 10% (min $50) to $2,000 and 12.5% to $10,000 of your card's confirmed value. Quoted firm before any work starts.
Grading concierge
PSA, TAG or Beckett — one flat fee by grader and speed, per card, all-in. You never deal with the grader.
Tier jump
Only if PSA reassesses your card into a higher tier after grading: you pay the difference between tier fees plus a $20 admin fee. No jump, nothing extra.
Restoration tiers
| Confirmed card value | Restoration fee |
|---|
The percentage scales with the tier and is calculated on the value we confirm together at intake — not your declared estimate.
What might it cost?
A live estimate — the firm quote always follows a physical inspection at the confirmed value. Nothing here charges you anything.
The maths, before you commit.
The question every collector asks. Put in what your card's worth raw and what you reckon it's worth graded — we'll show the fees and the honest answer.
The verdict
Estimates only — no grade or value is ever guaranteed. If PSA re-tiers your card after grading, the tier-fee difference + $20 admin applies (not included above; most cards never have one).
