Optional (add ons):

  1. Removal from previous encapsulation – Have cards you believe are under graded? You’re not alone! Select this option to have them carefully removed from their holders, fully cleaned, prepped, and re-submitted for grading.

    *Includes: Fully Covered Guarantee – Worried about potential damage during removal? Don’t be! With our fully covered guarantee, your card is 100% protected.  If we damage the card during removal (hey, even Greg Maddux walked a few batters!), you will be reimbursed for the damage.
