We have been extremely busy behind the scened working harder than ever trying to get our cleaning and grading services operational for everyone. We are happy to say that as of TODAY, we are accepting submissions for our card cleaning service. As far as the Grading Service is concerned... we have partnered with a grading company that is revolutionizing the way cards are graded. Rather than having one person look at your card, you will have 50, 75, 100, or more graders looking at your card to provide you with the most accurate grade possible. The best part of this is that these graders don't have to physically touch your card. Without going into a ton of detail here, once we receive your card it is scanned with a 6500 dpi scanner and uploaded to a server. Then the graders are able to view your card through an app where they can zoom in so close to the card it is better than the naked eye. Here they will grade the card based on corners, edges, centering, and surface to give it a grade. Once the card has gone through the grading process, it will receive the official grade. Stacked Gaming will receive all the data and handle the rest of the process (putting card in a one-touch magnetic case, afixing the grade sticker to the case, etc). You not only receive the card in a protective case with the grade on it, but you will get a digital grade and a certificate as well. For cards that have already been graded, you can submit them as well and we can confirm the grade your card received as being accurate or not. The slabbed card never has to be removed from the slab to do this thanks to the equipment used resulting in a 6500 dpi image.

We are still waiting to hear back from some distributors so please keep your fingers crossed still. The hardest part about getting into this business is finding a way to ensure to the distributors you are a legitimate business right now. Due to the pandamic, many people started "businesses" that were not legitimate resulting in distributors increasing their requirements to do business with them. It has been a long process, but we are still pushing forward in hopes to get us a few distributors that are willing to trust this broken Army Veteran jsut trying to bring fun to the community. For those that have been around this entire time, I appreciate every single one of you. You are the true champions. As we move forward and grow, we want to be able to do stuff for the TCG community and the Stacked Gaming community as well. So keep the support coming because we are far from done. We are only just beginning...

Things have been going pretty well over the past few months. We are looking into different services that we can offer all the TCG and sports card collectors. Currently, we are in a Beta Phase of cleaning, assessment, and grade submission services. We will start offering these services to customers soon, but we are accepting a few people for the Beta Phase where the fees are minimal in exchange for answering some questions. If you are interested please let us know and we would be glad to discuss this opportunity with you.

We are also preparing our inventory to be sold locally to us. We have found a local store that will rent us a glass case for a decent price. All sales from the local sales will go directly into obtaining our very own storefront. The overhead for this is minimal and this allows us to collect more profit compared to online sales.

As always, we are always looking for new ideas and ways to assist you, the customer, with your collections. Whether you collect TCG cards, sports cards, statues, video games, movies, or anything else... If you have an idea how we can expand the business feel free to contact us and bring it to our attention.

Currently, Stacked Gaming is reviewing the direction that the company is going to move in order to provide everyone with the best service possible. As we are doing this, minimal inventory will be available. You will still be able to make purchases, but please understand that we will restock inventory as often as we can.

We are looking to start providing our customers with packs to buy. We are in the process of discussing with multiple distributors to get trading card packs for Pokemon, Magic: The Gathering, Digimon, DragonBall, and more.

We want to hear from you though. What would you like to see in the store? Would you like to see sports cards, toys, clothing, custom card packs, etc.? This business was established with the consumer in mind, so now is your chance to help navigate the future of Stacked Gaming. Let your voice be heard. Send us a message and tell us what you would like to see.

Lastly, we want to thank you for all the support everyone has shown so far. Stacked Gaming is new and growing. With your support I know we can grow this business to what everyone hopes it to be someday. A business for the collectors, by the collectors.
