DCA - Vintage Grading Scale

FOR FACTORY SEALED, PACKAGED DIE-CAST ITEMS RELEASED PRIOR TO 2000

ESTIMATE YOUR PRICE:

1. FIND YOUR SIZE

Items are classified as either standard or custom size. Standard sizes include most common size collectibles from popular toy lines. Custom items are priced based on the item's overall dimensions. Add the height, width, and depth of an item in inches to determine the custom size (C1, C2, etc.). For a list of size examples click here.

2. PICK YOUR TIER

Currently, our Priority tier has a turnaround time of 30 business days and our Standard tier has a turnaround time of 75+ business days. Items with a listed Fair Market Value over $5000 will default to the Priority Tier. Our recasing tier has a turnaround time of 30 days and only applies for items previously graded by CGA. Please note turnaround times are estimations and are determined once your payment is received.

3. SELECT UPGRADES

The following upgrades are offered with our grading services:

UV Upgrade: Our UV-resistant UF-5 material blocks out 99% of harmful spectrums of light and is recommended to help protect the longevity of your collectible.

Grading Summary: A document completed by our grading department that includes a diagram of the item and a description of its flaws.

Cleaning: Item is gently cleaned to remove dirt, debris, and sticky residue if possible.
