Every card sold at cardhobby is verified before it ships. We specialize in graded and authenticated cards so you can buy with confidence — whether you're a collector chasing a grail or an investor building a portfolio.
Grading partners we trust
We buy and sell cards graded by the industry's most respected authorities: PSA (Professional Sports Authenticator), BGS (Beckett Grading Services), CGC (Certified Guaranty Company), and SGC (Sportscard Guaranty Corporation). Every graded listing shows the grading company, the grade, and the certification number.
How we verify
Before a card is listed, we confirm the slab's certification number against the grading company's public database, inspect the holder for tampering, and photograph the front and back exactly as you'll receive it. What you see in the listing is the card you get.
Understanding grades
Grades run from Poor (1) to Gem Mint (10). Higher grades command higher prices because population counts shrink as quality rises. If a card is raw (ungraded), we describe its condition honestly and note any visible flaws.
