Why I started this

I’m a collector first. I’ve learned what helps (and hurts) a card’s outcome and sale price. My goal is simple: protect your cards, make smart decisions, and remove the friction from grading and selling.

What I do (in plain English)

  1. Assess & Prep: I inspect your card under magnification, remove fingerprints and dust, and advise if it’s worth grading.

  2. Handle Grading: I prepare the paperwork, pack everything correctly, and ship it insured to trusted graders.

  3. Sell for You: I photograph and list your cards where buyers are, then manage the sale end‑to‑end.

Step‑by‑Step: Full Grading Submission

  1. Choose grading tier together (PSA; Value/Regular/Express).

  2. Paperwork & declare value done correctly.

  3. Pack & ship insured to the grader; you get tracking.

  4. Updates as the order moves: received, grading, shipped back.

  5. Final QC and re‑pack for your collection or sale.

How I handle your cards

  1. Microfiber cloths, air puffer, lens‑safe tools in a clean, safe environment

  2. Card safe liquids only, no chemicals, no alterations

  3. Fresh sleeves and Card Savers every time

  4. Tamper‑evident seals and insured shipping on request.

Step‑by‑Step: Sell My Cards (Consignment)

  1. Strategy: We review comps and set reserve/price for direct sale or auction.

  2. Presentation: Crisp photos and clean descriptions buyers trust.

  3. Listings: eBay/Whatnot/IG/Goldin/PWCC as appropriate.

  4. Negotiate & close: I handle offers and buyer comms.

  5. Ship & pay out: Insured shipping and fast payout once funds clear.

Step‑by‑Step: Assess, Clean & Prep

  1. Check‑in: Log your card(s) and confirm goals.

  2. Inspection: Centering/corners/edges/surface

  3. Gentle clean: Dry microfiber and dust removal as needed.

  4. Call: Honest recommendation with a grade‑range estimate.

  5. Prep: New sleeve + Card Saver with Brief summary + before/after photos.

What I won’t do

  1. No trimming, recoloring, pressing, or resurfacing. Ever.

  2. No untracked or uninsured shipments for outgoing orders.

  3. No hidden fees—grading and shipping costs are pass‑through.
