For over thirty years, we here at 3D Grading LLC have been involved in the Sports Card/ Comic Book Industry in some form or another. Our enjoyment of collecting cards, especially Baseball cards is what ultimately inspired the creation of 3D Grading LLC. The changes to the Grading Industry have been fast and furious. Our Motto “Grade It!”. Give us a chance to grade one of your cards!!!
3D Grading Official Stance:
A few days ago a controversy arose in the grading industry. Our stance is this, since 3D Grading LLC has been in operation it has been our policy to clean fingerprints, dust, hair, off a card surface as our normal grading evaluation. We highly suggest those submitting their cards do this prior to submission. We do not support altering or restoration of cards prior to submission as this is physically changing the card. Any cards submitted which have been altered or restored may not be graded if detected or may be given a grade of AA Authentic Altered. If you have any questions please reach out to us. Sincerly,
Steve D’Alasandro Founder/ Owner 3D Grading LLC
GRADE IT!!!
New Category Created: 10 Crown Mint
Now that we have introduced the Sub-Grades, and based on your feedback, a 10 Flawless will be a card with 10’s in each subcategory. A 10 Crown Mint will have 10’s in 3 sub-categories and a 9+ in 1 sub, or 2 10s and 2 9.5s. This will distinguish a truly flawless card!!! Thank You, for all your amazing feedback.
You Asked, We Listened... SUB-Grades Now Available on rear of all cards!!!
Every card graded now will have Sub-Grades listed on the back of the card label. Centering, Corners, Edges, and Surface will reflect the sub grades that go into determining the overall card grade on the front of the card. It is not as simple as tallying the grades and dividing, there are other factors that are taken into account for the final grade!!!
