Refund Policy

Last updated: June 2025

Because grading is a hands-on, time-intensive service, our refund policy reflects the work involved at each stage. Please read this carefully before submitting your cards.

01Grading Fees

Grading fees cover the labor and expertise involved in evaluating, authenticating, and encapsulating your cards. Once a card has been graded and slabbed, the associated grading fee is non-refundable, as the service has been fully rendered.

02Cancellations

You may cancel a submission for a full refund of grading fees before grading begins. Once cards have entered the grading queue, fees are no longer refundable. To cancel, email us as soon as possible with your order details.

Shipping costs are non-refundable once your cards have been dispatched back to you.

03Damaged or Lost Cards

We treat every card as if it were our own. In the rare event a card is lost or damaged while in our care, our liability is limited to the declared value of the card at the time of submission, up to the limits described in our Terms & Conditions. Please declare values accurately when you submit.

04Re-grades & Reholders

Re-grade and reholder requests are billed as new services and are non-refundable once completed. If you believe a grade was assigned in error, contact us within 14 days of receiving your slab and we will review the case fairly.

05Non-Refundable Services

The following are non-refundable once work has begun:

  • Completed grading and encapsulation.
  • Extended art label add-ons.
  • Expedited and Rush service surcharges.
  • Return shipping and insurance.

06How to Request a Refund

To request a refund for an eligible, pre-grading submission, email contact@truemintgrading.com with your order number and reason. We review every request individually and aim to respond within 1–2 business days.

07Processing Time

Approved refunds are issued to your original payment method. Please allow 5–10 business days for the funds to appear, depending on your bank or card provider.
