What is the Slabline Score?

The Slabline Score is a credit-style 0–1000 protection score for a graded trading-card collection, blended from five weighted factors: Insurance (35%), Concentration (25%), Storage (20%), Liquidity (10%), and Provenance (10%). Higher is better; bands run A (≥880) to F (<400).

How does Slabline value my graded cards?

Each card is valued from recent comparable sales for the exact graded card (by certification number and grade), aggregated across eBay, Heritage, Goldin, and PWCC. More comps yield a tighter, higher-confidence value.

Does Slabline sell insurance?

No. Slabline is software that produces broker-ready insurance schedules and risk reports. It is not an insurer, broker, or appraiser and does not provide insurance, financial, or legal advice.

Which cards and categories does Slabline support?

Graded slabs from PSA, BGS, SGC, CGC, and TAG across baseball, basketball, football, soccer, Formula 1 / racing, hockey, Pokémon, and Magic.

How much does Slabline cost?

There is a free Ledger tier for up to 25 cards. Collector is $99/year (or $9.99/month) and removes the card limit for an unlimited collection. Insured is $149/year (or $14.99/month) and adds broker-ready insurance schedules and a weekly intelligence brief. A Vaulted tier adds connected Hobby Smart Case hardware.

A card’s value is not fixed — it is a live read on supply and demand for that exact card and grade. Knowing the drivers helps you buy, sell, and insure at the right time.

Demand drivers

On-field or in-show performance, awards, nostalgia cycles, a player’s legacy, and broader hobby attention all push demand. A rookie’s breakout season or a franchise moment can move a card overnight.

Supply and scarcity

Population reports (how many of a card exist at each grade) set the scarcity floor. A thin high-grade population supports a premium; a flood of new copies or reprints can soften prices.

Why stale values hurt

Because prices move fast, a value — or an insurance schedule — from last season can be badly off. Slabline re-pulls comparable sales continuously so your collection total reflects today, not a snapshot.
