Please contact us before purchasing this item to ensure that the issue of concern is covered by the Quality Assurance Guarantee.

See the service description below for more information.

Issue Return

Almost all grading experiences go perfectly, however, as there is human interaction involved in the grading process, sometimes there are issues which are not spotted by quality control. For these issues we offer a free return and correct service for every partner and we will also return your item to you for free once it has been corrected.

This service is intended only for customers who have had items returned back from The Sub Center with an issue such as but not limited to:
The card/item has been mislabelled
The holder has substantial damage / heavy cosmetic damage
The holder has some foreign debris inside it (for example a hair)
The card/item is incorrectly holdered
Suspected damage by the grading company

Unfortunately sonic Welding cosmetics aren’t covered as the final finish of this can’t be controlled

Please contact us to discuss the issue with your return and only purchase this product once we have advised you.

Estimated turnaround: There is no specific turnaround time for this product as all issues can take different lengths of time to resolve.

Semi-rigids

All cards are required to be sent to PSA, Beckett or CGC in clear loose fit card sleeves and the correct size semi-rigids for grading.
If you are not sending your cards to us in the correct card sleeves and semi-rigids you will need to add the necessary quantity of semi-rigids to your order.
This fee covers the clear loose fit card sleeve, the semi-rigid and the handling fee for swapping out your cards in store.

Sending your cards to us in the correct way will save you money and reduce the handling of your cards in store.
We highly recommend subsafe.uk. Plus you can save 10% on all orders with code: THESUBCENTER

Holder Removal

If you would like to send us a graded card to be removed from it’s current graded holder and be sent on a new service you will need to add the holder removal service to your order.

Our experienced team can safely remove the cards from any grading company holders.
The holder removal service fee is applicable for each card that needs to be removed.
