We know your cards aren't just cardboard — they're valuable collectibles you've spent years hunting down. That's why every card we handle is fully insured from the moment it arrives until it's back in your hands.
If you're not satisfied with our restoration work, we'll re-do it at no extra charge. No questions asked.
Everything you need to know about our restoration process, pricing, and results.
We can address a wide range of card issues including surface scratches, dirt and debris, minor creases, dents, and holo scratches. Our Deep Clean service handles deep cleaning, holo scratch removal and inspection, while our Full Restoration service adds dent and crease reduction, edge lift reduction, and deep scratch treatment.
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.
Deep Clean ($29.95) includes deep surface cleaning, holo scratch removal, debris removal, and a full inspection report.
Full Restoration (starts at $99.95) includes everything in Deep Clean plus dent & crease reduction, edge lift reduction, and deep scratch treatment. Pricing is tiered by card value. Ideal for high-value cards where maximizing grade potential matters.
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.
Deep Clean 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.
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.
Submitting any restored card to a grading company carries inherent risk. PSA, BGS, and CGC each maintain their own evolving criteria for what they consider "altered," and those criteria are not always disclosed publicly. A card that we restore using accepted, non-additive techniques may still be flagged by a grader as "Evidence of Alteration" (e.g., PSA's N-codes), which results in the card being returned ungraded and can permanently reduce its market value.
Things to understand before you grade:
By choosing to submit a restored card for grading, you accept that the outcome is solely at the discretion of the grading company. Poke-Fix is not responsible for any grade, alteration designation, or change in market value that results from a third-party grader's evaluation. If you are unsure, we recommend choosing our Inspection service first to discuss the expected outcome before committing to restoration or grading.
Deep Clean starts at $29.95 per card. Full Restoration starts at $99.95 per card and is tiered by declared card value — cards under $100 are $99.95, $100-500 are $124.95, $500-1,000 are $199.95, and cards $1,000+ start at $299.95 plus 2.5% of value. All prices are shown upfront during submission.

From minor surface wear to significant damage, our technicians bring your cards back to life.
Light and moderate surface scratches are the most common defect on Pokemon cards. Our micro-polishing technique removes scratches without damaging the card's surface coating, improving both appearance and the PSA surface sub-grade.
Dents, dings, and minor creases can drop a card's grade by 2-3 points. Our restoration process reduces these defects to minimize their visual and structural impact.
Holographic Pokemon cards are especially prone to visible scratching. Our specialized treatment reduces scratch visibility and restores the clean, reflective finish collectors demand.
Dirt, fingerprints, and debris accumulate over decades. Professional cleaning removes contaminants that affect both appearance and grading, especially on vintage Base Set, Jungle, and Fossil era cards.
