FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our restoration process, pricing, and results.

What types of damage can you fix?

We can address a wide range of card issues including surface scratches, dirt and debris, edge whitening, minor creases, dents, and edge lifts. Our Standard service focuses on surface cleaning and light scratch removal, while our Premium service tackles deeper damage like creases, dents, and edge repairs.

Some defects such as severe creases through the card stock, ink loss, water damage staining, and major structural damage may have limited improvement potential. We always provide an honest assessment before beginning work.

What's the difference between Clean & Polish and Full Restoration?

Clean & Polish (from $19.95) includes basic surface cleaning, light scratch removal, and dirt/debris removal. Best for cards with minor wear that need a professional touch-up.

Full Restoration (from $39.95) includes everything in Clean & Polish plus edge lift repair, dent and crease removal, deep scratch treatment, and full before-and-after documentation. Ideal for high-value cards where maximizing grade potential matters.

Do you open graded slabs (PSA, BGS, CGC)?

Yes, we can crack open PSA, BGS, and CGC slabs for restoration. Many collectors send us graded cards that received lower grades than expected, hoping restoration can improve the score on regrading. Please note that cracking a slab voids the current grade, so this is a decision to consider carefully.

How long does the restoration process take?

Clean & Polish typically takes 3-4 weeks from when we receive your cards. Full Restoration takes 5-7 weeks due to the more intensive work involved. High-Value Custom and Bulk timelines vary based on the scope of work. You can track progress through your customer dashboard at any time.

Do you guarantee specific grade improvements?

We do not guarantee specific grade outcomes, as grading is ultimately at the discretion of PSA, BGS, or CGC. However, most cards see a 0-2 grade improvement after restoration. We provide an honest assessment and realistic expectations before beginning any work so you can make an informed decision.

Cards with severe structural damage (PSA 3 or below) may see limited improvement since many defects at that level are permanent.

How is pricing calculated?

Pricing starts at the base rate for each tier ($19.95 for Clean & Polish, $39.95 for Full Restoration) and scales based on the declared value of your card. This ensures that higher-value cards receive the additional care and attention they deserve. You will see the exact price for each card during the submission process before you commit.

How should I ship my cards to you?

After placing your order, you will receive our facility address and your unique order reference number. We recommend shipping with tracking and insurance via USPS Priority Mail, UPS, or FedEx. Each card should be placed in a penny sleeve and toploader, with cards secured to prevent movement during transit.

What happens after I submit my order?

After checkout, you will receive shipping instructions and your order reference number. Ship your cards to our facility. Once received, we conduct a detailed assessment and send you a condition report. After you approve the restoration plan, our technicians begin work. You can track every step through your customer dashboard, and we provide before-and-after photos when complete.

How do I track my order?

After placing your order, you will receive login credentials to access your Customer Dashboard. From there you can view real-time status updates, check individual card progress, see before-and-after photos, and communicate directly with our team.

Do you offer bulk or volume discounts?

Yes. For submissions of 20 or more cards, we offer custom volume pricing through our Bulk Submission tier. Contact us for a personalized quote based on the number of cards, service level, and card values. Dealers and large collectors are welcome.
