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 and online 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.
