HOW MUCH IS A CUSTOM CARD?
There are quite a few variables involved, but here is a good baseline:
KIDS' CARDS:
Kids cards are created based off a set of templates previously created. This allows us to offer them at a lower cost then a custom card. These can be purchased from out KIDS CARDS page!
CUSTOM PIECES:
Our custom pieces are one-of-a-kind creations designed to showcase and elevate your cut autograph or relic. We offer a variety of stock sizes listed below, but if you need something outside our standard dimensions, we can craft a fully custom piece to fit your vision.
Because each project is unique, pricing is provided through a custom quote. CONTACT US TODAY to discuss your custom piece.
STANDARD CARD $150 (2.5" x 3.5")
Our Standard Cards start at $150 and includes one cut, perfect for a cut autograph or relic. This base price does not include foiling, magnetic card holder, or shipping. Cards thicker than 180PT incur an additional charge.

Our Standard Jumbos start at $200 and includes 1 cut. This base price does not include foiling, magnetic card holder, or shipping. Cards thicker than 180PT will require a custom case.
STANDARD BOOKLET $275 (7.25" x 2.5")
Our Standard Booklets start at $275 and include two cuts, perfect for pairing an autograph with a relic. This base price does not include foiling, magnetic card holder, or shipping. Cards thicker than 180PT will require a custom case.

SWEET-SPOT STYLE BASEBALL CUT AUTO CARDS $195
STANDARD SERVICE:
With this option, you provide the details of your project, and we handle the execution according to our specifications. This service involves minimal to no design input from the customer.
PREMIUM SERVICE:
For clients who have specific design preferences or template requirements, this service includes more extensive design work and closer collaboration. It adds $75 to the base price of the project and includes additional back-and-forth communication.
Please note, if there are numerous revisions or extended back-and-forth during the design process, additional design fees may apply.
ADDITIONAL CARDS:
Sometimes it makes sense to produce multiple cards from the same design, for example, when using only relics, solid cards, or when you have multiple cut autographs of the same size. Additional cards using the exact same design can be added to your order at a discounted rate. We can also vary foil colors on additional cards while maintaining 1/1 labeling. due to customizable options for addition cards, a custom quote will need to be given. CONTACT US if you’re interested in adding extra cards to your order.
ORDER MINIMUM:
To keep delivering the highest quality and creativity in every custom piece, we now have a minimum order of $250. Don’t worry—this won’t affect most orders! If your project is a single, no-foil card starting at $150, you can either add more sparkle with foiling options or bundle in additional cards to reach the minimum. It’s the perfect excuse to level up your order and get even more of what you love!
UPDATE ABOUT AUTHENTIC AUTOGRAPHS
Our original policy has always been: "Any autograph we work on must be authenticated by sticker, letter, or quick opinion from either PSA, Beckett Authentication, James Spence Authentication (JSA), or G.O.A.T Authentication (for Jordan, Gretzky, Brady)." This has served as the foundation of our commitment to legitimacy and collector confidence
-
No Use of Third-Party Stickers Without a Partnership
We will no longer embed, replicate, or incorporate third-party authentication stickers, labels, or holograms into any designs unless we have a formal partnership with that organization. Additionally, once an autograph is cracked from a slab or separated/cut from a sticker, it voids the authenticity anyway—highlighting the importance of full-context authentication.
-
Approved Authenticators Remain Unchanged
Our existing policy requiring authentication from PSA, JSA, Beckett, or G.O.A.T. remains in effect. However, if there is any question regarding the authenticity of an item, it may be subject to re-evaluation through another third-party authenticator that we approve of at our discretion.
-
Re-Authentication Support Available
If you'd like to have your piece authenticated after completion, we’re happy to help guide you through that process.
Thank you for your understanding and for helping us maintain the integrity of the hobby.
FOILING OPTIONS
Pricing below covers foiling on the front of the card only. We can also foil the back, and due to the process the listed price would simply double. For images of what each foiling style looks like please head over to our FOILING page, or visit any of our socials!

Why does foiling cost what it does? Foiling is a meticulous, labor-intensive process performed with specialized equipment, and every card requires its own unique setup. The pricing reflects the skill, time, and precision needed to create a true one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
STICKER HARVESTING
Sticker Harvesting is $35 per sticker. We do not send original cards back because our sticker harvesting process destroys them. If you need photos of your original cards with sticker autos, please do that BEFORE you send them to us! Harvesting stickers can be very fickle, and while we have about a 97% success rate, there is a chance that the sticker is unusable after removing it from the other product. Certain products are easier to work with than others, so if you're considering finding stickers out there in the wild for us to harvest, feel free to check with us first if you have options and we can help you navigate what ones to choose!
SLAB CRACKING
$15 per slab if you send autos/relics encased in authentication/graded slabs.

VARIABLES THAT EFFECT PRICNG:
VARIATIONS IN RELICS
While we can embed almost anything into a custom piece, some relics require significantly more time and care to cut, prepare, and embed. For example, embedding a section of a shoe or cleat involves a more complex process than working with a jersey or shirt because of the thickness, materials, and irregular shapes involved. These extra steps ensure your relic is preserved safely and displayed beautifully, but they may also affect turnaround time and pricing.
CARD THICKNESS VARIABLES
If the item being embedded requires the finished piece to exceed 180PT in thickness, a premium fee may apply. This additional cost reflects the extra materials, labor, and specialized casing needed to securely house thicker pieces.
PREMIUM FEES
If the cut autograph you provide is valued at more than $500, a premium fee may apply to your project. In addition, certain complex or high-value designs that significantly increase the scope of work may also be subject to premium fees. These charges reflect the additional care, handling, and craftsmanship required to protect and showcase higher-value items.
ELIMINATING RECLAIM LOGOS/MARKETING
By default, all of our custom pieces include Reclaim branding, including our name and website on the back. We also showcase finished projects on our social media and sometimes on our website. This visibility helps us attract new customers and keep our prices accessible.
If you prefer to remove Reclaim branding from your piece or opt out of having your project featured publicly, an additional charge will apply because we lose that built-in marketing value. This fee also covers the added production steps involved.
DESIGN TIME
Each standard project includes a set amount of design time, and we typically build your card using an existing template we have already created. Working from previous templates allows us to keep prices lower than if we had to create a completely custom design from scratch every time. If your project requires more design work than the allotted time, additional design hours will be billed at $75 per hour on top of the cost of your card.
Several factors can increase design time and therefore cost. These include multiple rounds of revisions, adding new information or photos after the project has started, extremely complex designs, or creating a brand-new template to match the look of another card. To help keep costs down, we recommend providing as much information and direction as possible at the beginning of your project.
PEDIGREE SLAB LABEL
Looking to take your custom card to the next level? Get it slabbed through Beckett Authentication and proudly display the Reclaim Customs name on the label! It’s a simple way to add a premium, finishing touch to your custom.
HOW IT WORKS
You have two easy options:
-
Send us your custom card, or
-
Let us know to hold onto it during production.
We’ll handle the rest. Once the card is slabbed by Beckett using our official Reclaim Customs Pedigree label, we’ll ship it right back to you—sealed, authenticated, and awesome.
WHAT IT COSTS
Just like any card slabbing process, there are a couple of standard fees involved. We break it down into two clear line items:
BECKETT AUTO AUTNEITCAION FEE
This fee varies depending on the signer. You can check current rates directly on the Beckett website via a quick online search found HERE.
PEDIGREE SLABBING FEE
This includes:
This cost also varies based on the service level and location.
-
Beckett slabbing fee
-
Reclaim Customs Pedigree label fee
-
All shipping (to and from Beckett)
-
Taxes and insurance
Our goal isn’t to profit from Pedigree labels—we offer this service to enhance your custom card experience. The pricing simply covers our costs.
BULK PRICING
See our basic Bulk Pricing HERE! Cards shipped in bulk don't always come individually cased. Please ask ahead of time if you're concerned about cases for your bulk cards!
HOW LONG DOES A CUSTOM ORDER TAKE?
We process custom orders on a first-come, first-served basis. Once you submit your request through our CUSTOM ORDER FOR it is automatically added to our internal tracking system.
While we aim to complete all projects within 2 to 3 months, please note that due to high demand, we cannot guarantee a specific timeline for your order. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work diligently to bring your custom creation to life.
DO YOU HELP WITH FLIPPING/RESELLING?
Yes! We offer these services with commission rates that beat eBay's rates. Check out reclaimmarketplace.com to see how it works!
WHERE DO I SEND MY RELICS/AUTOS?
Once an order is placed or agreed upon, we will provide you with a mailing address... Please read our TERMS OF SERVICE to understand more about liability and shipping your items. You can place an order by filling out our CUSTOM CARD ORDER FORM. Relics and materials can be sent to our shop! Contact us on where to send your items!
CAN I CHOOSE PHOTOS USED?
Possibly! The photo needs to be high resolution and sometimes there are licensing issues that would need to be resolved. You can always make suggestions, but Reclaim Cards will need to have the final say so.
CAN I PROVDE PHOTOS?
High resolution photos can be sent to: orders@reclaimcards.com.
Please see our TERMS OF SERVICE before sending your items and ordering.

HOW DOES SHIPPING WORK?
Standard orders are shipped via USPS without insurance and without a signature requirement, using either a box or padded envelope. Once your project ships you will receive a tracking number from us. We take great care to protect your piece during the packaging process and have had only one lost package to date. However, once your order is in transit, it is beyond our control. Unless you upgrade to insured shipping, we cannot guarantee refunds or replacements for lost or damaged pieces.
DO YOU OFFER EXPRESS SHIPPING?
Yes! We offer a variety of express and non-standard shipping options, including overnight, two-day, USPS Priority, signature-required delivery, and even UPS or FedEx services. Additional costs typically apply to these upgraded shipping methods, determined on a case-by-case basis. If you’re interested in non-standard shipping, please contact us as early as possible during the production phase of your project so we can plan accordingly and arrange any additional payment needed.
DO YOU OFFER INSURED SHIPPING?
Yes! Any project can be shipped with insurance. Because value is subjective, the insured amount can be set based on how you value your piece, but it must also be agreed upon by us. We use our experience and industry knowledge to help establish an appropriate insured amount.
If a package is lost or damaged, we will assist by providing all available shipping information, but it is the customer’s responsibility to contact the shipping carrier to initiate and manage any insurance claim. Please note that Reclaim Customs cannot guarantee the carrier will pay out the insured amount, and we do not reimburse customers for pieces lost or damaged during transit.
WHAT IS THE CURRENT TURNAROUND TIME?
It is difficult to give a definitive wait time because each project is so unique… some projects take an hour, some take a day and a half. We don’t like giving time estimates, because it puts pressure on us to “get it done” and the end product suffers if we’re rushed. If you place an order, you're welcome to check in at any time, but just remember the more "when will my project be done" messages we have to answer, the less time we have to make cards!
What we can tell you is that each project gets the best care possible. From design to assembly, to packing up and shipping. We promise it will be amazing when it’s done!
Orders are made in the order they are received. We just ask that you be patient! When you're the best in the business, demand is high!
Please do your best to not email us to ask where your project is at... We get these emails often and it really slows down our process of making cards! We will contact you when we are getting ready to start your custom project. The exception to this are kids cards that are ordered from our kids cards page. To keep these costs down, we do not send mockups for approval.
CAN I EXPEDITE MY PROJECT?
Yes! You can upgrade your project to our expedited queue. This will move your order into the expedited line, which typically has a turnaround time of about 1–2 weeks depending on current volume. However, please note that expedited service does not guarantee a specific completion date.
Reminder: All projects are ultimately completed in the order they are received, and no timelines can be guaranteed.
DO YOU HAVE IMMEDIATE TURN AROUND?
We’re committed to supporting our customers in every way we can. In rare cases where you need a project completed immediately, we can provide a ‘Drop Everything’ quote. Pricing and turnaround times for this service depend on several factors. If you’re interested in this option, please CONTACT US as soon as possible.
WHAT PRODUCTION MATERIALS DO YOU USE?
While we're pretty transparent on all aspects of out process, this is some secret sauce that we are reluctant to share! We pride ourselves in using quality products.
DO YOU HANDLE OTHER PROJECTS BESIDES CARDS AND JERSEY FRAMES?
Yes! Just let me know your ideas and we can talk through it!

PACKING PEANUTS POLICY "PPP"
We love a good surprise—just not the kind that explodes into a blizzard of styrofoam chaos. That’s why we’re rolling out our Packing Peanuts Policy (PPP). Any package shipped to us containing packing peanuts will incur a $50 cleanup fee. Why? Because those little guys get everywhere—under desks, in equipment, even in our coffee mugs (true story). Help us keep the Cardistry Cave clean and peanut-free by choosing smarter, eco-friendlier packing materials. Trust us—your cards (and our sanity) will thank you!
