❓ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 

 

1. How accurate is the AI grading estimate?

The estimator uses realistic PSA/SGC/CGA uplift rules based on Australian market behaviour. While it cannot replace a true grading service, it provides a reliable guide for resale expectations and grading ROI.

2. Does the AI read the image and detect centering or print lines?

No — the image upload is visual only. The AI relies on your condition selection, raw value and set information to calculate expected grades and value ranges.

3. What market does the value estimation use?

Values are based on Australian sales behaviour, with multipliers calibrated for AFL cards, NBA trends, CGA price movement and PSA/SGC premiums.

4. Should I use PSA, SGC or CGA?

It depends on your goals:

• PSA: Best long-term market value

• SGC: Strong prices, fast turnaround

• CGA: Best Aussie pricing and fast grading for AFL

The tool will tell you which path has the best ROI.

5. Can I submit cards directly through GCA?

Yes — we offer CGA, PSA, SGC & BGS submissions.
You can book through our submission page.

6. Is this tool free?

Yes — 100% free for all collectors.

7. Does this tool save or store my card images?

No. Your image is not uploaded to any external servers.
