Every Rare Edition label Includes multiple security features:
Our "Basically" Bulletproof Case
Tiny sounds move really fast like a certain blue hedgehog to keep your card sealed. No pulling apart with your hand here.
Nobody wants faded cards they intend to keep for a lifetime. Consider our ultraviolet light protection your card's SPF100 sunblock.
With Corning® GORILLA® Glass, our slabs are designed to last a lifetime. Not only does it resist scratches, it gives our cards a fantastic feel in your hands.
Our fastest grading tier offers a 3 business day turnaround time to help keep up with market trends, while our other service tiers offer a varied return window for more patient collectors. Rare Edition grading also includes for free what other companies charge extra for: free subgrades, free auto grades, the industry's best grading report, and even free return shipping for our Diamond customers.

Rare Edition only supports Domestic US shipping at this time. For International orders, please review our page here.
At Rare Edition, we take many steps to protect your cards and ensure they're safe while we're receiving, grading, and sending them back to you. The following is a breakdown of how we calculate the Return Shipping, Handling, and Insurance fees for your cards.
The return shipping fees depend on the submission tier you choose for your cards:
Currently, Rare Edition supports all major Credit / Debit card issuers using Stripe. Stripe is our payment processor, and all payments are passed through and processed through Stripe's proprietary technology.
Some purchases may require additional verification steps or require alternate payment methods; in these cases our Rare Edition support team can assist our customers with alternate payment methods like wire transfers or direct transactions. If this is something you are interested in, please submit a support request and our team will get back to you.
Currently, Rare Edition ships cards to addresses located in the United States only. If you are an international customer, you may use a US-based third-party shipping service to ship cards to and from Rare Edition; however, you will need to put a US-based return shipping address into your order when you submit cards for grading, and Rare Edition is not liable for any issues that occur with third-party international shipping. Official support for international shipping is expected to be offered in the future.
At Rare Edition, we take many steps to ensure the safety of the cards you send in to us. We monitor your cards throughout our process, and every interaction our team takes with your cards is tracked internally. Multiple photos are taken along the way, including when the card is prepared for scanning and when the card is encapsulated.
Any card not actively being processed is stored in our Class 2 vault. Our vault, which includes multiple secondary secure storage areas inside the vault for extra security around high-value cards, is a restricted-access area and multiple closed-circuit cameras are always present and recording, as are senior members of our team. When working hours are over, any cards on the floor (raw or graded but unshipped) are secured inside our vault.
