Restoration services

Care level first. Treatments second.

Choose one care level for how the card is handled, then add only the restoration or grading-prep work you want reviewed. The submission page suggests a care level from the card's market or declared value, but you can choose a different level.

Optional treatments

Build the treatment plan card by card.

These are added on top of the selected care level. Treatments listed as “starting” prices can change after physical inspection if the damage or card construction requires more work.

+$15

Pre-grading condition review, presentation prep, and the option to discuss having TCG Card Clinic submit approved cards to PSA on your behalf.

Surface finishSurface Polish
+$15

Light polishing for appropriate card surfaces after inspection. Not every finish is a candidate.

Holo / foil surfaceHolo Scratch Reduction
Starting +$35

Scratch and scuff reduction review for eligible holo or foil surfaces. Final suitability depends on finish and severity.

Pressure marksDent Reduction
Starting +$40

Dent and pressure-mark reduction where the card construction and damage allow safe treatment.

Creases / bendsCrease Reduction
Starting +$60

Crease and bend reduction with pricing based on severity, location, and treatment complexity.

BundleComplete Restoration Package
Starting +$120

Bundled review for holo scratch reduction, surface polish, dent reduction, and crease reduction. Final scope is confirmed after physical inspection.

Grade Prep + PSA discussion

Grade Prep is a +$15 add-on rather than a separate care level. If you choose it, you can discuss having TCG Card Clinic submit approved cards to PSA on your behalf. PSA grading fees are separate and are due after the cards return and the clinic receives the PSA charge when we submit for you.

Before you submit

Value suggests handling. Condition determines treatment.

A high-value card may be better suited to Collector Concierge, but value alone does not mean the card needs dent, crease, polish, or scratch work. Select only the treatments you want evaluated and we confirm the safe scope after physical inspection.
