Shipping Notes

  • Customers are responsible for all inbound shipping and insurance costs. Return shipping will be calculated based on the declared value and chosen return carrier.
  • TGS is not liable for cards lost or damaged while in transit to our facility. We strongly recommend using a trackable service (e.g., FedEx, UPS, USPS) with full insurance coverage.
  • In the rare event of damage occurring during the grading or encapsulation process at our facility, TGS will compensate the customer based on the fair market value of the raw card.
  • Please do not send cards in hard acrylic screw-down cases. We recommend using standard penny sleeves and semi-rigid card holders for all submissions.
