Should I grade my card?

Compare raw value, likely graded value, grading fees, shipping, selling fees, and grade risk before submitting a trading card to PSA, CGC, or BGS.

Quick decision rules

• Grade when the realistic graded value beats the raw value plus every submission and selling cost.
• Keep raw when missing the target grade removes the upside.
• Recheck centering, surface, corners, and recent comps before using a top-grade price.
