Choosing a grading service
Looking at the different options for grading your cards can be very confusing at first, but ultimately it's really up to you and your preferences to choose which grading service (and which service level you choose) is best for you.
Here are some points to consider:
The cost of the service and the turnaround time (Click here to view pricing)
What does the slab (the protective casing) look like?
Do you want subgrades? (Currently only offered by BGS)
