Grade with CGC, Now in the UAE
Collectors and dealers in the Middle East now have access to CGC's world-leading certification services for comic books and pop culture collectibles.
Superhero Grading for Comics and More
If you collect comics, you know CGC — the world leader in comic book grading. Founded in 2000, CGC provides an accurate, consistent and impartial assessment of authenticity and grade, backed by a comprehensive guarantee. CGC is part of the Certified Collectibles Group, whose mission is to empower collectors with services that ignite passion, create value and build community.
Grade to Increase Value
Grading includes authentication, an expert evaluation of condition and encapsulation in a tamper-evident holder. A savvy collector can see a significant return on investment from grading comics. Sales at auction and online transactions all show that graded comics sell for more than ungraded comics because collectors, dealers and retailers trust and value the grading process.
Grade to Protect
After grading, each comic and a CGC label with its description, grade and unique certification number are encapsulated in a display-worthy holder that provides superior long-term protection from damage, counterfeiting and tampering. The benefits of encapsulation alone are reason to grade, and the holder preserves your comics for generations of enjoyment.
