1 Pokémon card submission to PSA

Thankful1 · 01-03-2021, 06:46 PM

I just want to send 1 CP Pokémon card in for grading. Most videos I see are always about bulk submission.

Not against $75 express pricing so was thinking of trying that, but what type of carrier and packaging would be best to get the card to PSA (for just 1card)?

Any opinion on best way to mail it? Thanks

USPS Priority Mail small flat rate box.

If the raw value of that card is 500+, I would send the card next day Fedex air.

1. Card in penny sleeve and card protector
2. Card in a bubble mailer. I usually write my name and number on this.
3. Bubble mailer in USPS Flat Rate Priority Box
3a. Maybe a few extra packing peanuts or bubble wrap so the bubble mailer isn't flopping around (if you shake the box and hear it moving, add extra)

Card is $250-350 raw, secret rare charizard... would be my 1st ever submission... going to do some sports cards in a couple weeks but going thru LCS for $20 per... would like to get this one back a little quicker and just really think it’s a 9 or 10

Instead of getting flat rate priority mail for $7+ with $100 insurance.

Get 1st clast mail with $500 insurance for the same price with a 3rd party shipper.
