I’ve graded with Ace twice - using two different levels of their service and both times I’ve recieved 10’s which has been wonderful to see. Only thing I’d have a bug bear about would be the DHL return... See more

Ace Grading offers collectors modern, consistent and transparent card grading. Ace Grading believes at its core that trading card grading is evolving. While the authentication and grading process remains the most critical element of our service, we want to push the boundaries. We believe that every card graded should be treated as a prized possession, and each collector should feel proud to show it off. Therefore we've designed our custom plastic casing and labels to represent this. Our clear and rigid case provides the best protection for your card, but at the same time, it exemplifies the encased card to ensure that, as a whole, your card feels like a trophy piece.

After the break in I was dubious about submitting any cards after I lost a considerable amount through a third party submission. However after now receiving my second sub back of the year I am starting to gain back my trust in the company. The slab quality is great and the ACE labels just give off that extra bit of flair, perfect for the personal collection.

Easily the best experience I've had with any grading company. Would highly recommend ace grading.
Best slabs on the market
Best slabs on the market! Ace labels set them apart from the competition ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Best UK based graders but still a way to go
I have submitted a few times with Ace and have found the process easy to do.
The fact that all the levels are open (mostly) all the time really is better then the mad scramble to get slots it was a few months ago.
My only gripe is with the "detailed reports" and upcharging of them. If you have the information then why is that information not included with the grading like other graders. The fact that the information is held behind another payment is frustrating and even then the report is really simple with very little information on it.
Fantastic service!
Fantastic service, quick turnaround & great communication through the process
LOVE MY SLABS
LOVE MY SLABS, also was a quick turn around , happy customer
Great experience overall
Great experience overall. I’m new to card grading and chose Ace because of their unique and eye-catching labelling, which really sets them apart. The grading process itself was smooth and straightforward.
The only downside I’d mention is that the protective materials the cards are sent in—such as top loaders—aren’t returned. It feels a bit wasteful, especially as they’re perfectly reusable. That said, it doesn’t take away from the quality of the service, and I’d still be happy to use Ace again.
Recommend ace grading
Recommend ace grading, turn around time was exactly as stated and happy with my grades, thanks again
Great experience
Good service, graded and submitted on time with lovely ace labels!
Very quick turn around
Very quick turn around - do not like that they use DHL as they don’t look after the parcels and always comes back dinged but ace do package well so never any issues with cards after
Outstanding Service & Premium Quality from Ace Grading
I recently had several cards graded by Ace Grading. The turnaround time was quick, the communication was clear throughout, and the slabs look absolutely fantastic — sleek, sturdy, and professionally finished. I especially appreciate the detailed grading reports, which add real transparency and confidence to the process. Highly recommended for any collector looking for reliable and high-quality grading!
Overall great UK grading company
I’ve supported ace for a while and can’t really fault their service. Nice looking slabs. Really thick acrylic, feels way less tacky than PSA. Turnaround times are ahead of the estimates lately based on what I’ve seen and heard. Overall I think ace are a little over-hated without much justification to it.
My only comment to potentially help with some of the backlash they get, I think if ace shifted their centering criteria to 55/45 instead of 60/40 then the keyboard warriors would have a whole lot less to complain about. I don’t mind 60/40 personally, but I do understand some of the cards that are on the brink of 60/40 and get a 10 can sometimes look a little bad to those who don’t agree with 60/40 and leads the slab to be a tad less desirable.
Overall, the way I see it is they’re by far the best grading company in the UK, if you don’t like their slabs or grading criteria your other option is to wait 6 months
Best grading company in Europe
Used them for grading twice now, great service and best slabs out of everyone I've gone to so far. Colour match + ACE labels are much better than any other company and the UI of the website shows everything being done step by step. I have sent a third submission in already.
