Photo assessment

Start with a photo assessment

A grading submission records the house you are aiming for, the declared value used for pricing and carrier-cover choices, and how you want the card returned. Declaring a value does not itself insure the card; any selected carrier cover and grading-company cover are subject to their own terms.

Why CardRevive

One Sydney bench, six grading houses.

Before a card is submitted we run a pre-grade screen and give you an honest house-fit call, so a Sydney collector can weigh whether PSA, BGS, CGC, PCG or ACE suits the card and its value before any fees are committed.

Grading houses we prep and submit from Sydney.

Prices below are CardRevive middleman starting rates in Australian dollars where published, not the houses' own pricing. The grading companies set their own final pricing and timeframes, and third-party descriptors are as at July 2026. CardRevive is independent of PSA, BGS, CGC and ACE; its PCG relationship is limited to the separate co-branded Australian submission pathway.

Process

The Sydney grading path.

01

Assess

Create a submission, then we review photos, declared value, card era and the grading house you have in mind.

02

Prep

Cleaning or restoration is quoted and only done after assessment and approval, so a card may present better before it is graded.

03

Submit or return

We package and submit to your chosen house, or return the card safely if grading no longer makes sense.

Can I drop cards off in Sydney?

Yes, walk in to the Lab at 493a Forest Rd, Penshurst NSW. No appointment needed; please create a submission first so the cards are logged on arrival.

Is Beckett the same as BGS?

Yes. Beckett Grading Services and BGS are the same grading house, so a search for beckett grading and a search for BGS grading point to the same submissions we prep from Sydney.

Do you submit to TAG?

Yes. We submit to TAG through our own arrangement as a middleman, from A$110 + GST (A$121 inc. GST) a card. Our AI Card Grader can also return a separate TAG-style estimate, which is not an official grade.

Do you guarantee a grade?

No. Screening and prep can reduce risk and help a card present better, but the grading house makes the final decision. We do not promise a specific grade.

Intake · Sydney

Send us your worst card.

Start the submission flow, package your cards, and ship them to the Sydney lab for assessment.

A$10 inspection per card on mail-in, online and drop-off submissions. If restoration is unnecessary, you skip the tier fee and can grade where requested or have the card returned untreated. If our service has a problem, contact us so we can put it right.

Every card is assessed before any work. No grade is ever guaranteed, and we never recolour.
