Read the full grading processFrequently asked
How much does grading cost?
Pricing depends on the category, the declared value and the service level you choose. Send us your list and we will quote it — there is no charge for a quote.
Do you accept submissions from outside Azerbaijan?
Yes. Contact us first so we can confirm the correct shipping route, customs paperwork and insured value for your country before you post anything.
Can I drop items off in person?
Yes, in Baku by appointment. Message us to arrange a time so a grader is available to check the item in with you present.
Do you buy or sell collectibles?
No. GLA only authenticates, grades and encapsulates. We do not trade in the items we grade — that separation is what keeps the grade credible.
