MNT Card Grading Services
We are happy to be able to inform you that we are now offering card grading through MNT Grading!
The Process
Email your list of cards with photos and estimated valuations to [email protected]. You will receive an email reply and we will schedule an appointment for dropoff within 2 business days. The cards must be presented to us at the appointment in the order in which they are listed on your submission email. Appointments are scheduled Tues. - Sat. from 11 - 5 pm.
Each card must be placed in a top loader and sleeve OR a card saver and sleeve. One-touch toploaders will be accepted, but will not be returned with your order. Screw-down cases will not be accepted.
Shipping cost is normally $45 round trip ($22.50 before tax to MNT and $22.50 before tax for the return shipping.) Additionally, please note that there is an additional charge for shipping insurance as noted below.
Cards will be returned from the grading company inside of a protective “slab”, with grading information displayed on the “slab”. See picture:
If you pay for shipping insurance (recommended) your cards are covered by insurance against loss while in transit in both directions. Insurance costs $6 for every $100 of replacement value that you assign to your cards. For example, if you bring in cards that you estimate have a replacement value of $3000.00 in total, the cost for insurance is $3000.00 / $100 x 6 = $180.
If you chose not to pay for insurance, please note that your cards are only covered against loss while they are in our possession or in the MNT facility.
MNT Grading Inc. does not authenticate any card or any autographs. Any cards where the grader determines that there are signs of tampering/trimming, counterfeiting/reprint or altering of any kind will be returned ungraded with the full fee still being charged.
If there is a claim on any items, lost or damaged through the mailing process, the customer will receive the current sale market value (not values declared in price or reference guides) in return not exceeding the insured value paid for.
Please be aware that cards are only shipped via Canada POST presently which limits insurance coverage to a maximum of $5000.00.
To follow up on your order please do not telephone the store. Please email [email protected] and note your work order number in the subject line along with your last name.
