Documented breaks

A documented break suits card shops and sealed-product retailers who want their singles to sell with proof behind them, and collectors who bring their own box and want the same record. It matters most for product where the hits are worth enough that buyers ask how the card was handled.

The fee is flat per box or per case, with a volume tier for shops, plus per-card fees for condition documentation and pack-fresh certificates on the hits. Everything is quoted in writing before the break is booked, and none of it is tied to what the cards turn out to be worth.

A typical example: a shop books a case opening at its own counter. Each box is weighed and its seal photographed at intake, opened on continuous video, and every hit is sleeved as it is pulled with its condition recorded. The shop then sells those singles with a certificate that links to the recording, kept under the retention and consent policy.

Because a shop filming its own product is not independent. The practice holds no interest in the cards, applies a written condition standard, is the same appraiser who pre-grades and sees the returns, carries insured custody, and produces a record in a format buyers and grading companies recognise.

At your premises or an agreed venue in the Yuma area. The practice has no storefront.
