Quick answer

Use a CGC Card Submission Pack to securely package your cards for grading. Follow the steps below to avoid common mistakes and ensure your submission arrives safely.

Why use a dedicated submission pack?

A CGC Card Submission Pack includes the exact materials required by the grading service. Using standard envelopes or sleeves can lead to damage or rejection. The pack provides holders, sleeves, and protectors that meet industry specifications.

Steps to submit your cards with a CGC submission pack

  1. Prepare your cards: Inspect each card for damage or dirt. Place each card in a penny sleeve, then into a semi-rigid holder. Common mistake: using a soft sleeve alone can cause bending during transit. Check that the sleeve fits snugly without forcing the card.
  2. Assemble the submission pack: Insert the sleeved cards into the provided mailer. Add the card protectors and microfiber cloth if included. Seal the mailer securely. Common mistake: overstuffing the mailer can cause creases. Leave a little space so the cards don't shift.
  3. Complete the submission form: Fill out the grading service's online form, print the label, and attach it to the mailer. Common mistake: forgetting to include a return address or service level selection. Double-check the shipping label before sealing the package.
  4. Ship and track: Use a tracked shipping method to the grading facility. Keep the tracking number until the process is complete. Common mistake: using untracked mail can lead to lost submissions. Save the tracking number in your records.
