Pre-grade Optimization

Ideal for collectors who want to improve presentation and make smarter grading decisions. Includes full examination, cleaning, and a detailed lab report.

Slab Lab Signature Service

Our complete, end-to-end process.

Includes examination, full optimization, structural prep, and submission to your grading company of choice.

The full Slab Lab process — from evaluation to final grade.

Card Examination (Lab Report)

Professional pre-grade evaluation using the four key grading standards: edges, corners, surface, and centering. Receive a clear recommendation on whether to submit or hold.

Card Sterilization

Surface cleaning and decontamination to remove dirt, residue, and impurities. Enhances clarity and prepares the card for optimal presentation and grading.

Card Submission

We handle the entire submission process to PSA, TAG, or CGC. From prep to paperwork — your cards are sent the right way.

Advanced Surface Correction

Targeted work for structural and surface-level imperfections. Additional charges may apply for high-value or complex cards. Restoration results vary by card. Restoration improves presentation but does not guarantee grading outcomes.
