Frequently asked questions

How does the grading work?

We grade in-store using DCM Optic™, an AI-assisted visual grading system. Your card is photographed front and back and analyzed for centering, corners, edges, and surface, producing a 1 to 10 grade with four sub-grades and a written condition report, in minutes instead of months.

How do I verify a card you graded?

Every slab we produce carries a unique serial number and a QR code. Scan the QR or enter the serial in the lookup on this page to see the exact photos taken at grading, the grade and sub-grades, and the full report. What you see in the registry is what was graded.

What do the sub-grades mean?

Centering measures how evenly the card is cut; corners, edges, and surface measure visible wear and defects in each area. The overall grade reflects the card's weakest area, because a card is only as strong as its weakest attribute.

Is this the same as PSA or other mail-in grading?

It's a different service with different strengths: grades are produced by an independent AI-assisted system, in minutes, at a fraction of mail-in cost. Many collectors grade with us first to decide which cards are worth an expensive mail-in submission, and keep the rest in our slabs.

Does grading include authentication?

No. Grading evaluates the visible condition of the card. It does not determine whether a card is genuine, altered, or counterfeit. The verification registry does let any buyer confirm exactly what was photographed and graded.
