FROM YOUR COLLECTION TO LORE
Submit your cards
Prepare up to 10 cards. Secure a place in the weekly queue before sending them for grading.
Prelaunch: prepare your cards now. My orders shows current quote and checkout availability. A saved draft does not reserve a grading slot.

Prices are USD. Turnaround starts at official Orlando check-in. Shipping, handling, additional coverage and applicable tax are separate and will appear in your complete quote before payment.
Service terms and turnaround guaranteeHave these ready
- The exact card name, game, set, number, printed year, language and variation.
- A clear front and back photograph when adding photos to your draft.
- A declared value for each card and your complete return address.
LORE grades trading card game cards. Sports cards are not accepted. A catalog match does not by itself confirm grading eligibility.
Read eligibility and service policiesHow your submission works
- Save a draft. Sign in, choose cards from the catalog and check their exact details. Missing cards can be saved for review. Card changes save automatically before photos upload.
- Request your complete total. Select the saved draft in My orders, choose a service, and add declared values and your return address. LORE checks eligibility, return shipping, insurance and tax.
- Review the quote. Your complete quote will separately show grading, handling, return shipping, insurance and applicable tax. Grading fees do not include shipping and handling. Shipping, handling and any additional declared-value coverage charges are being finalized and will be disclosed in your complete quote before you join a paid grading queue or make payment. You are responsible for shipping your cards to LORE. Inbound shipping is separate. A quote does not reserve capacity.
- Join the weekly queue. The scheduled public drop is Sunday at 8 PM Eastern. Once your quote is ready and a drop is available, open My orders, choose the drop and select Join Sunday Queue. Capacity is limited; preparing a draft or receiving a quote does not reserve a place. Eligible Founders use their membership allocation under the service terms.
- Complete payment. When a slot is allocated and checkout becomes available, your 15-minute payment window begins. Pay by the deadline displayed in My orders. Your order is accepted only after verified payment confirmation.
- Pack and ship. Open Shipping & progress on your accepted order. Print the packing slip, follow official receiving instructions, and save your inbound carrier and tracking number.
- Follow your cards. LORE check-in, preparation, grading, encapsulation, QC and confirmed dispatch appear against the same order. The turnaround clock starts at official Orlando check-in.
Before sending anything
Wait until your order is accepted and official receiving instructions appear. Do not ship to an address found elsewhere or substitute cards after acceptance.
During prelaunch, preparation may be available while checkout remains closed. Current availability appears in My orders. Email notifications are not connected yet; check your account for updates.
