At Safeguard, we are convinced that we are not the only ones who consider our maps to be real treasures, sometimes acquired after years of research. Already in the 90s, we carried them with us everywhere in our pockets, then with time, the elastics were replaced by sleeves to finally give way to toploaders and storage folders.
In 2019, our desire to preserve our cards over time like real museum pieces led us to imagine Safeguard, a company created by demanding and passionate collectors, whose ambition would be to offer everyone‘s collection a service of excellence:
The right expertise in a timeless protective case
In our workshop, professional rigour, dedication and the quest for uncompromising quality are the watchwords of a know-how for which nothing is left to chance.
Our team of 16 detail-oriented professionals with unwavering integrity also includes specialists for each key stage of the process (graders, welders, quality control assistants, order pickers, AI engineer), all characterised by the desire to provide the best possible customer experience. They will process your orders with the utmost care and ensure that your cards receive a service of unparalleled quality, reflecting the value of excellence carried by Safeguard.
Our quality commitments
Preserve the condition of your cards
We record a video of the opening of each package and photograph the front and back of your cards in high definition before and after encapsulation.
A well-deserved treatment
In addition to the systematic wearing of neutral handling gloves by our staff, your cards are encapsulated in a clean room where the dust is filtered.
Be truly available to you
We can be reached by email and our social network messaging systems and we respond to each of your messages within 48 hours*.
Real-time monitoring
You can follow the progress of your order in real time at any time and find out the exact location of your cards.
Total impartiality through anonymity
Personal order information that identifies our customers is not accessible to the grading staff in order to ensure maximum objectivity.
Controlled and transparent grading
Each card is analyzed by two different graders and will systematically receive sub-grades.
Detailed photos and an advanced grading certificate will ensure a maximum degree of transparency to support a high level of expertise.
