HGA Grades Sage Cards
Established in 1999 by Tom Geideman and Robert Sadlack in Sewell, New Jersey, SAGE Collectibles has become a notable player in the trading card industry, later relocating to Vista, California. Tom Geideman, a former key employee at Upper Deck, played a crucial role in selecting players and creating trading cards for baseball products, marking him as a pioneer in the industry.
SAGE initially specialized in college draft sets, carving out a niche in the market. Despite not holding licenses from major professional leagues, the company found success by providing cards at more affordable prices. The name “SAGE” itself is a portmanteau of the founders’ names, Sadlack and Geidman.
SAGE is recognized for its diverse and distinctive card designs that set them apart from major card producers. While their designs vary, they consistently deliver attractive and unique cards. The company places a strong emphasis on autographs and memorabilia cards, ensuring their products feature a substantial offering of both.
An interesting feature of SAGE’s autographs is their in-box availability, eliminating the need for redemption cards. This commitment to customer satisfaction, coupled with innovative approaches, has contributed to SAGE’s enduring presence and success in the trading card market.
Graded cards often have a higher resale value and are more sought after by serious collectors to display, invest, and sell. It doesn’t matter if it is for personal collection or you are selling your cards, the first step to upgrading your collection is to get it graded.
Importance of Grading SAGE Cards
Grading is an important part to any collector who wants to preserve, protect, and authenticate their collection. Grading your cards gives you assurance and piece of mind of the following points.
Condition Determination
A card’s grade can significantly influence its market value. A mint condition card can fetch prices exponentially higher than its worn counterparts.
Authenticity
Grading ensures the card’s authenticity, protecting collectors from counterfeit cards. As well as being labeled with the detailed information about the cards set, release and variation.
Protection
Once graded, cards are sealed in a tamper-resistant, protective case, preserving their condition. Allowing you to display and show off your cards without fear of damage or wear.
Our Unique Label Designs Enhance Your Cards
HGA’s custom labels enhance graded SAGE cards by offering a personalized and visually striking touch that complements the design aesthetics of SAGE’s trading cards. The ability to tailor labels with custom designs and colors allows collectors to create a cohesive and unique presentation that resonates with the themes of the SAGE cards. This level of customization not only adds an extra layer of visual appeal but also serves as a storytelling element, allowing collectors to highlight specific details or commemorate special moments associated with their SAGE cards.
