Step by step instruction at ETA
We have created a step-by-step guide for you, so that we can answer most questions directly and accompany you through the ordering process up to the shipping of your cards.
To do this, either watch our YouTube video here: ETA ordering process on YouTube
or read through the step-by-step instructions.
Step 1: Ordering your grading service
- Select the desired grading service and the number of cards to be graded.
- Enter your personal data and delivery information at checkout (create a customer account if you don't have one yet, for more benefits).
- Choose the payment method that suits you best.
- Complete your order.
Step 2: Preparing for shipment
- You will receive a confirmation email for your order.
- You can optionally fill out the grading form linked under this step and include it in your package. This is now optional and no longer mandatory.
- Please ensure that all your cards are shipped in a penny sleeve and a card saver; this is mandatory for submission to PSA, BGS, and CGC! Additionally, you can use newspaper or bubble wrap in the package you send your cards to us in, so that your cards do not shift and remain undamaged.
Step 3: Shipping
- Pack your cards to be submitted in the package with newspaper and bubble wrap.
- If you wish, include the card grading form in the package sent to us. (Optional)
- Send your package exclusively via DHL to the following address:

Some information for you
up charge
The up-charge takes into account the card value that the card will have after grading. PSA can then charge an up-charge, which means, for example, if you send in a card in bulk service but it exceeds the maximum value of the service, then PSA will charge us for the difference and there will be an additional payment.
We will pay in advance for you so that your card gets back to us safely. We will then invoice you for the difference.
Example: If you send a card, for example in the bulk service, with a maximum value after grading of USD 199, but it exceeds this value after grading, PSA can classify the card higher. The fees from the higher service must be paid.
Processing time
Unfortunately, the processing times stated can be significantly changed/influenced by the following factors:
- Processing by PSA/BGS/CGC/WATA
- Customs offices through return shipment
- Miscellaneous
We're doing our best to make things happen quickly, but unfortunately, sometimes our hands are tied. We hope for your understanding.
Shipment
Your package will be sent directly from you to us in Cologne.
After we have secured and processed your shipment, we prepare your cards for shipment to PSA.
It is important that your cards reach us 3 days before the end of each month so that we can document and prepare your cards. Then, 14 days later at the latest, all cards are sent to PSA
We love transparency! That's why you can see where your cards are currently on our site at any time.
At checkout you will only be charged for the return shipping to you for your cards after we have received them back from PSA.
Card Grade Form
The card grade form is particularly important for our documents and for securely documenting your cards.
You will receive the form on your e-mail address after your order. The easiest way is to fill it out digitally, print it out and simply enclose it with the package that you send to us.
Then nothing stands in the way of your degree.
