How are graded cards authenticated?

Every graded card we sell is authenticated and encapsulated by a recognised third-party grading company: PSA, BGS (Beckett), CGC, SGC, ACE or TAG.

Each listing shows the grading company, the numeric grade, and the certification number printed on the slab label. That certification number links directly to the grader's own public verification database, so you can confirm the card independently before you buy — and again when it arrives.

We never break a slab open, re-holder a card, or list a card as graded unless it is in its original sealed holder.
