“The grading process doesn’t adhere to rigid timeframe intervals. It’s not uncommon for an item to linger in a particular phase for a significant duration, then swiftly progress through the remaining stages. This is especially notable with autographed items, given their separate divisions for grading and autograph authentication. Nonetheless, you can trust that the grading company usually meets its advertised turnaround times, even if your items appear to be moving slowly through the process.”
“PSA grades trading cards, memorabilia, Funko’s, tickets and unopened trading card packs. They authenticate trading cards, autographs, photographs, and most types of sports memorabilia.”
“While uncommon, grading companies may occasionally mislabel cards with incorrect names, variations, or years. Should this happen to one of your cards, simply inform us, and we will promptly submit a label correction request on your behalf. This process is typically quick and free of charge. However, please note that we can only facilitate this service for cards submitted through Market 2 Mint.”
Do NOT cut the card out of the sheet.
To safely remove an SI for Kids card for grading, place a straight edge (such as a ruler) on top of the surrounding cards, never on the card you are removing. This supports the sheet without risking surface damage. Gently fold the sheet upward and downward several times along the perforated line to weaken it. Once the line is properly flexed, slowly tear along the perforations in a smooth, controlled motion to ensure clean, even edges. Repeat this process for all four sides. This method preserves the natural perforations and gives the card the best chance at receiving a high grade.
