Grading with PSA through Alt

Interested in having your cards graded with PSA? This article covers Alt's PSA grading service.

⚠️ PSA Value Tier Submissions Temporarily Paused Effective June 2, 2026, PSA has temporarily closed new submissions for the following service levels: Value Bulk, Value, Value Plus, and Value Max. This pause is due to PSA's current backlog of approximately 10 million cards and is expected to last approximately 4 months, or until PSA reduces its backlog to 5 million cards.

All cards already submitted under these tiers will continue to be processed under their original estimated turnaround times.

Available tiers: Regular, Express, Super Express, Walk-Through, and Premium 1 remain open for new submissions through Alt.

When received at the Vault, ungraded (raw) cards incur a $5 per card fee. This fee covers digitization, storage, and insurance, with no ongoing storage fees. Grading charges are separate and not included in the fee.

Customers are responsible for all charges associated with grading and sending cards to PSA. These grading charges will appear and be actionable in your account activity. Any upcharges from PSA will be passed along to the customer.

Disclaimer:

  • Any up charges from PSA will be passed along to the customer.

  • Estimated Turnaround Times are estimates only and not guaranteed. They begin when the order is received and scanned into the PSA facility, and may be impacted by submission volume, capacity, and other unforeseen circumstances.

  • PSA may decline the Reholder service if the case shows signs of tampering or if the card condition has changed since original grading.
