With the most recent increase to PSA turn around times I decided to try AGS and TAG. I sent 10 cards to AGS and 10 cards to TAG on 4/30. I received my completed AGS order back on 5/23/26. TAG is still in step 1 - “Order Prep”.

AGS is an AI grading company. I’m happy with the slabs. They feel sturdy and are basically the same size as a PSA slab. It also includes sub-grades and the laser imaging.The only complaint I have would be that they seemed more tailored to the TCG side. When completing my submission form the database did not have many of the cards and they had to be entered manually, which takes a little time. Hopefully they grow, and their database does as well.

We’ll see how anything does for resale, but over all I’m happy and will grade with them again.

If anyone wants to give AGS a try, use
