Pre-Screening
You no longer need to pay the full cost of encasing a comic book that does not make the grade you want. With our Pre-Screening Service, you only pay for encasing comics at the minimum grade you set.
For example, if you submit a comic and set your minimum grade as 9.0, we will not encase the book and charge you the full cost of grading unless the book receives a grade of 9.0 or higher. If the book receives a grade lower than 9.0, you pay $2 if the book is submitted under the Modern Age comic service, $4 for the Standard service, and $6 for Classic service.
A maximum of three different prescreen grades can be set for the books in one order. If more than 3 prescreen grades are chosen prescreen fees will increase by $1 per book for any of the prescreen services.
A minimum of 30 books must be sent in at one time for Pre-Screening, and books that are from different grading services can be sent in together. However, if you do include books from different services in a single order, the cost is raised to $3 for Modern Age, $5 for Standard, and $6 for Classic service. Books that are submitted for grading that are too large for our holders are only charged the prescreen fee.
The maximum size for our holders is currently: 7 3/4″ wide x 10 1/2″ tall, and 100 pages in thickness.
