Grading services
We are an authorized CGC and CBCS dealer. If you would like to have your books officially graded and slabbed, bring them by and we can get them graded for you!
Books for CGC will be hand-delivered and picked up from the facility in Sarasota for grading. CBCS books will be mailed to Dallas.
Rather for grading or return shipping, we'll pack up your books to ensure that everything gets there as safe as possible.
Dealer prices and grading dates vary based on book age and value.
Interested in a CGC or CBCS signature event, let us know and we can get your books to the appropriate service in time for the event! Come by the shop to get your shipment set up or reach out to Matt via phone at (941)714-0402 for more details.
