October 2025 Ingestion Services Update: Comparing COMC Service Levels

With our updated service levels, you now have clearer options to match how you collect and sell. Here’s how to decide which service fits best. 

Elite

  • Turnaround: 2 weeks 
  • Fee: $2.00 (raw), $2.50 (graded) or $5.00 (odd-sized) 
  • Why it fits: Your cards are $100+ and you want speed. Maybe it’s a rookie who just broke out or a card tied to an upcoming event. Elite gets your cards processed quickly so you can capitalize on the moment. 

Select

  • Turnaround: 4 weeks 
  • Fee: $1.00 (raw), $1.50 (graded) or $4.00 (odd-sized) 
  • Why it fits: You sell regularly and want reliability without paying a premium. Select is ideal for cards you want live in time to sell… when they will sell for the most (bring the most value). 

Standard

  • Turnaround: 16 weeks 
  • Fee: $0.65 (raw), $1.25 (graded) or $3.50 (odd-sized) 
  • Minimum: 100 cards 
  • Why it fits: You’re working through a collection you picked up or cleaning out your PC of prior-year inserts and autos. You’re excited to monetize your cards in a price-conscious way, or trade bulk for your grail, without the pressure of being time sensitive. Standard is the most cost-effective option. 

Other Submission Paths 

  • Direct-to-Grading: Submit directly for grading with a 1 week turnaround. No fees are charged at deposit, grading fees are billed after return. 
  • Mailbox: Buy cards online and ship them straight to COMC. Mailbox has a 2-week turnaround with a $2 per-package fee. 

Bottom line: 

  • If you want speed and/or have cards $100+, choose Elite 
  • If you’re targeting seasonality, choose Select 
  • If you’re looking for a bargain, choose Standard 

No matter your style, there’s a service built for you.
