What to send
What the first message needs
For a documented break, the first message is complete when it has:
- The specific product and how many boxes or cases
- Preferred dates, and whether the break happens at your premises or an agreed venue in the Yuma area
- Your intent for pre-grading, hub submission (grading fees prepaid by you), or concurrent staff certification
Questions
Does this guarantee the cards will grade well?
No. Condition is recorded as observed at the recorded time. The record protects you in a dispute; it does not predict a grade.
Who owns the cards?
Always you. The practice never buys, sells, brokers or consigns cards.
Do you hold my money?
No. Grading fees are prepaid by you, either directly to the company or as a pass-through invoice paid before shipping. There is no escrow.
