There is a re-encapsulation service now available for changing 100 point grades to the 10 point scale. The cost is $11.00 per card and the card must remain sealed in the case when returned to us. Any cards in holders that have been tampered with will need to be re-graded at the normal grading cost. The turnaround will be approximately 30 business days.
The 10 point scale and equivalent 100 point grades will be as follows:
10 — 98 to 100.
9.5 — 93 to 97.
9 — 88 to 92.
8.5 — 83 to 87.
8 — 78 to 82.
7.5 — 73 to 77.
7 — 66 to 72.
6 — 56 to 65.
5 — 46 to 55.
4 — 36 to 45.
3 — 26 to 35.
2 — 16 to 25.
1 — 1 to 15.
