Full restoration
$125 per card (CAD) + tax

  • Scratch reduction
  • Damage repair

Choose the tier that fits the card. We assess every submission individually and recommend the level of work that makes sense before anything moves forward.

Each card is assessed by condition first, then matched to the most appropriate tier and workflow.

Complete Repair is best suited for cards valued at $300+ or where grading potential and presentation improvement justify deeper restoration work.

No payment upfront. You approve the plan first, and payment is due after the work is completed.

Add $25 for in-house slab cracking on graded cards. Return shipping is billed at cost.
