SOUTHERN STARR COLLECTIBLES • CARD GRADING

It’s More Than a Card.

It may be the rookie you chased for months, the pull you never expected, a childhood favorite, or a card you plan to keep forever. When you trust SSC with it, we treat it like it matters—because it does.

A Grading Experience Built Around the Collector

You should know where your cards are, what we examine, and why they received their grades. SSC was built to make that process clear from submission to return shipping.

Create your grading order and send your cards to SSC with your packing slip.

02RECEIVE

Your order moves into the SSC workflow so you can follow its progress.

03GRADE

Centering, corners, edges and surface are reviewed using the SSC grading formula.

04ENCAPSULATE

Completed cards are labeled, encapsulated and quality checked before release.

05RETURN

Once shipped, your grade is released and your certification can be verified online.

TRANSPARENCY MATTERS

See Why Your Card Received Its Grade.

We don’t want the number on the label to be the only information you receive. SSC grade reports are designed to show the condition areas that contributed to the final result.
