Grading a stack before you send it to PSA?
PSA still moves fastest for resale — but with its cheaper tiers paused and entry pricing near $80 a card, sending a pile of "maybe" cards in blind is an expensive gamble. Pre-screen them with PCG for $1 each, then spend the $80 only on the cards that earned it.
The hobby's #1 question
Not sure if your card is even worth grading?
It's the most common question in the hobby — and the scariest, because grading elsewhere can cost more than the card is worth. Get the honest answer first, or skip the guesswork and grade it for $1.
About PCG
Built on transparency, fairness,
and a love of the hobby.
PCG was founded to take the anxiety out of grading. We come from the medical-device manufacturing world — where precision and quality control aren't optional — and we brought that same standard to every card we grade.
