ArENA CLUB GRADING PROCESS

Step-By-Step
 

1 / PREP & INSPECT

Before the process begins, Arena Club expert graders glove up like a jeweler does before handling diamonds. Ensuring the few moments your cards are out of sleeves, they’re handled with care. The package is opened under camera. We then match the card with your submission, and authenticate to ensure it’s not counterfeit.

2 / SCAN

Cards are then very carefully removed from top-loaders and placed on a scanner to capture high-resolution images. Then the cards are placed right back into top-loaders, safe and secure, with as little exposure as possible.

3 / GRADE

Your Arena Club expert grader, aided by computer vision and artificial intelligence, then examine every detail of your card. Cards are given four sub-grades (a fifth auto-grade is given to signatures), adding up to a more accurate and comprehensive overall grade. After that first round of grading, it’s reviewed by another expert grader. Then a third round of review, before it is prepped for slabbing.

4 / SLAB

Our gloved graders then carefully remove the card and prepare it for slabbing. Our ultrasonic welding machine creates an air-tight encapsulation, so your card is safe and secure in its new premium, custom slab. Then the slab is bagged in a sleeve.

5 / VAULT & MINT

You have the option to have your cards vaulted. At this point vaulted cards are then secured and stored in our 24/7 secure surveillance facility with temperature and moisture control. Every card is fully-insured and protected.
