To arrange a shipment from the London office:

Fill out the UK Return Shipping Form, which can be found here. Make sure to:

• Make sure you sign your form.
• Include the completed form with your submission.

Note: If a UK Return Shipping Form is not included with a submission, CGC Cards will hold the cards at its London office for pick-up. Payments are accepted by Visa, Mastercard, American Express and electronic transfer. CGC Cards has online payment portals to make it easier for clients to pay securely by credit card. To learn more, click here. Many Authorized Dealers in the UK also accept submissions from the public.

Submissions to CGC Cards from customers located outside of the UK may be subject to import duties upon arrival in the UK. Customers are responsible for all costs, including any import duties, incurred when shipping to CGC Cards in the UK. (CGC Cards covers all shipping costs between its London office and its US headquarters.)

The London office will not ship submissions to customers in the EU. Customers located outside of the UK will need to make their own arrangements to pick up collectibles from CGC Cards' London office.

EU customers may also consider submitting directly to CGC Cards' US headquarters. For more information, visit NGCcoin.com (for coins), PMGnotes.com (for paper money), CGCcomics.com (for comics, magazines and posters) or CGCcards.com (for tCGs, non-sports and sports cards).

There is a limit of 300 cards per invoice.

Turnaround times reflect the average length of time that we think it will take to complete a submission received today under a given grading tier or service. Turnaround times for individual submissions can vary based on a variety of factors including whether the submission form was completed properly, the submission was packaged correctly, the collectibles require additional research and other reasons.

We strive to provide the most up-to-date turnaround time estimates on our website. For current turnaround times, please visit cgccards.uk/Services

Once your submission is in transit to CGC, your order cannot be cancelled or changed. CGC has already started working on your submission to perform your requested services. No refunds can be given after a submission has been delivered.

Please note that turnaround times are only estimates and are not guaranteed. For current services and fees as well as turnaround times, click here.

CGC Cards needs a declared value to insure cards while they are at our facility. A card's value also determines the CGC Cards grading tier. Since CGC Cards guarantees the authenticity and grade of cards that it certifies, it charges a higher fee for more valuable cards.

CGC Cards processes credit card payments at the time a submission is received.

Yes, CGC images all graded cards after encapsulation. These images are available to view at CGCcards.uk/verify. For high-resolution images emailed to you, CGC Cards offers digital imaging for cards submitted under any of CGC Cards' grading and service tiers. This imaging service consists of accurate high-resolution images of the front and back of the card, shown encapsulated in its CGC Cards holder. The fee is £5 and applies to all cards on the submission form.
