Instructions for Sending Cards for CGC Grading
Thank you for choosing our CGC grading submission service! Please follow the steps below to ensure a smooth and secure submission process:
Step 1: Place Your Order
- Add the CGC grading service to your cart and complete checkout.
- Be sure to select the correct service level (e.g., Value, Regular, Express) based on your card’s value and turnaround preference.
Step 2: Prepare Your Cards
- Use a penny sleeve and a semi-rigid card holder (e.g., Card Saver I) for each card. Do not send cards in top loaders or magnetic cases.
Step 3: Ship Your Cards
- Package your cards securely with padding to prevent movement or damage during transit.
- We recommend using a tracked and insured shipping method.
- You will be provided a form to fill out with the cards you are grading once you complete your order that will have the address to ship to.
Step 4: Confirmation & Updates
- Once we receive your cards, you’ll get a confirmation email.
- We'll handle the entire CGC submission process and provide updates as your order moves through grading and returns.
- Submissions are sent out on the last day of each month. To ensure your cards are included in that month's batch, please make sure they’re with me at least 4 days prior to the end of the month. This allows enough time for processing and preparation.
Current Turnaround Times (Estimates):
Turnaround times are subject to change based on CGC's current processing volume.
If you would like your cards professionally cleaned and prepped before grading, please be sure to add our Cleaning Service to your order.
