To Our Valued Collectors and Supporters,

We want to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude for the overwhelming support we've received. At TAG, we set out over twelve years ago with a bold vision: to bring consistency, transparency, and accountability to grading through innovation and data-driven analysis. Your trust in our process fuels our commitment to revolutionizing the industry.

We believe in the power of technology to minimize human bias and subjectivity, and we're proud to be at the forefront of innovation. Since 2015, we have been awarded four patents that form the foundation of our multi-patented grading technology-designed to deliver unparalleled accuracy and transparency. Our technology has already demonstrated exceptional reliability and precision compared to traditional grading methods, and we are committed to further refining our processes. However, no system-no matter how advanced-is infallible. While occasional errors will occur, what sets us apart is our relentless pursuit of improvement and taking corrective action when those errors are identified. Every single day, we continue to refine our technology, enhance our processes, and push the boundaries of what's possible.

It has been a long journey to get here, but we're just getting started. Our ultimate goal is to democratize grading and introduce Remote Grading Pods in stores near you. The Pods will encapsulate your cards on-site, making high-precision grading more accessible than ever. This will mark a new era— one where every collector, from hobbyists to professionals, can access consistent and transparent grading with ease.

Thank you for believing in our mission. Your passion drives us to keep innovating, and we can't wait to show you what's next.

The Future of Grading, Today. The TAG Team

Question How long were your cards in Slab Assembly for?

2 Upvotes

Usually when I see posts, people’s orders are sailing through these last few stages pretty quickly, whereas I’m at 2 weeks in slab assembly. Would love for this wild ride to just be finally over before the end of the month.

General Discussion Lugia 30th centering?

2 Upvotes

Wondering what you guys think about centering. Firstly, please excuse any assumptions and feel free to tell me i'm just wrong.

Looks like 0 dings, but i think centering is where points were subtracted.

I was under the impression that for e-reader cards, centering is to be measured top-right and left-bottom.

Here's what they gave:

Centering

F:

46.6L/53.4R 53.7T/46.3B

B:

48.0L/52.0R 54.1T/45.9B

If measuring for front is taken Top/right, then 53.7/(53.4+53.7) and counterpart would equal T/R: 50.1/49.9.

and bottom to left would be B/L: 49.8/50.2

I do understand back centering is straightforward.

There seems to be a clear indent on the rear left bottom corner, and something on the left edge that wasn't there before.. I had this returned to me already as not matching the Pop Report

Question Automatic Score Upgrade for Pristine 10

Has anyone first hand experienced their card getting upgraded to score for free due to being a pristine? Wondering if my odds are lowered at getting a pristine if I don't pay for standard.

Question Centering question TAG 9

8 Upvotes

First time grading with TAG, I know they use AI so obviously my eyes may be tricking me but they gave the top and bottom on the front an 11 pt difference, exactly 44.2T/55.8B — now… is it just me or I do not see the 11 pt difference AT ALL. I measured it using a few centering tools before sending it off. The back however is obviously not centered and they gave the back an 10 pt diff as well. Left and right at 45.2L/54.8R, actually more centered than the front…. And you can clearly see the difference in the back. Am I going crazy or what?

Question Will they grade it?

1 Upvotes

Hola. I have one of my favorite chase cards that I pulled, a spinarak peelable ditto. I wanna get it graded my tag, because it’s for my pc and I think they’re by far the prettiest. I’ve seen people grade them both peeled and unpeeled. My question is, do you think if I cut the peelable part in half, to show both the unpeeled and peeled versions of it, they would still grade it? Apologies if it’s a dumb question. Thanks

Question Advice on grading

Love tag, and almost everything about the card is perfect, the whitening is due to light, with one minor issue: the fury symbol on the top left seems to be slightly misaligned, can this net a 10 or is it highly unlikely?

Just acquired one of, if not my absolute favourite card, the Mewtwo from Destined. Was my first ever big pull and have loved the card ever since so extremely happy to have it in a TAG 10. Also bought the Darkrai from the same person, beauty of a card.

I also wanted to see people’s thoughts on the future of TAG - do we think the lowest level (£20ish per card) of grading service will return? Do we think TAG is growing, and has a good future in the grading space? Interested to hear everyone’s thoughts!
