Raw or graded
We buy PMGs and Metal inserts raw or graded by PSA, BGS or SGC. Foil surfaces scratch and chip easily, so keep raw cards in a sleeve and top loader, and photograph them without glare — front, back and the serial number.
Selling by mail
Send photos for a free value from recent sales. If you sell, we email a prepaid, insured label and pay by PayPal or Venmo once your cards arrive and are checked.
