No. The grader decides every grade. We pick the service, pack and submit your cards, and check the slabs when they come back.
Graders sometimes move a card to a higher service when they think it’s worth more than its tier (an “upcharge”). We pass that on at cost and ask you before paying it.
Pokémon and Riftbound cards. Not every grader takes every game, so we’ll tell you before submitting if a card can’t go to your chosen grader.
On the way back to you, yes: we post your slabs Special Delivery, insured up to the values you declare. Insure your parcel to us with Special Delivery too.
