Welcome to the new House of Cards blog.
We've been running the shop and grading floor for years and answering the same questions over and over — what tier should I pick? when does the new set drop? is this card worth grading? This blog is where we'll answer them once, properly, so collectors can read up on their own time.
What you'll find here
- Market reports — what's moving on TCGPlayer + eBay for the Australian market, week by week.
- Grading tips — when to grade, when to crack and re-submit, when to walk away.
- New release coverage — pre-orders, set spoilers, allocation forecasts.
- Pulls of the week — the best slabs that came through our grading floor.
- Behind the scenes — how we pack, log, and ship every single submission.
A note on grading
We've been getting a lot of questions about PSA + Auto — our new tier where the autograph authentication fee is baked into the grading price. One submission, one cart line, no surprises at checkout. If you collect signed cards, that's the tier to start with.
Read the full grading T&C so you know exactly what to expect before you post your cards.
