This service, however, is inherently risky—often due to circumstances beyond our control. For more information, check out our FAQs. Note: selecting this add-on doesn’t guarantee sticker removal. If WATA’s team of experts determine that removal of the sticker is likely to damage the game or uncover pre-existing damage, rather than attempting to proceed, we will let you know that and refund the fee associated with this service.

How an item is graded

Items are graded on their overall condition — the more "perfect" an item is, the higher the grade. Companies look at four main points:

1
Surface

Print quality and finish. Scratches, print lines, indents, scuffs — anything visible on the surface under bright light.

2
Corners

All four corners are inspected for whitening, fraying, dings, or rounded edges. Even a tiny ding can drop the grade.

3
Edges

Cleanness of the edges along the long and short sides. Looking for chipping, whitening, or wear from handling.

4
Centering

How perfectly the artwork sits within the borders, front and back. Often the deciding factor between a 9 and a 10.

Every third PSA month opens all PSA service categories — TCG, Value Max, Sports, Autographs, Jumbos, Coins, Magazines/Comics, and Vintage TCGs.

USA returns — customs & shipping

When items come back from a USA-based grading company we add a flat 17% customs charge and R45 shipping per item. Those amounts are calculated at checkout — no surprise bills later.

  • +17% customs (calculated on declared value)
  • +R45 shipping per item

How to pack your items

For the safest journey, send each card in a penny sleeve inside a semi-rigid card holder. Comics, games and other collectables are welcome in their usual bag/board or protective case. We strongly recommend our own GradeIT semi-rigids — when you use them, we don't repack your items at all and they go directly to the grader.

GradeIT Semi-Rigid Sleeves →

Don't have any? No problem — we'll re-pack into a fresh penny sleeve + semi-rigid on arrival.
