Four collector tools, free and private

The tier you pick and the value you declare set the grading fee

Pick a grader and a tier, then enter how many items you are sending and what each is worth. The tool adds the fees. Shipping and insurance depend on your carrier, so you type those in.

How the total is worked out

  1. Fee per item times the number of items.
  2. Where a tier charges a share of value, the tool uses the value you enter per item, and applies the tier's minimum.
  3. Optional add-ons and the per-invoice handling fee are listed when the grader's page lists them.
  4. Your shipping, insurance and return costs are added at the end.

Turnaround times are the grader's own estimates, and the grader does not guarantee them.
