4. Cover Rating Service

 

We offer a paid service providing informational ratings and analysis of postal history covers (“Rating Service”).

  • Service Description: Upon receiving payment and a user-submitted image of a cover, we will perform a rating and analysis, providing a report in PDF format. This report will include a rarity assessment based on our 5-tier system, the reasons for that assessment, and any relevant historical context or story.

  • User Responsibility: You are responsible for providing a clear, high-quality image of the cover to be rated. The quality of our rating and analysis is dependent on the quality of the image you provide.

  • Payment: All payments must be made in full prior to the delivery of the rating report. All prices are listed in U.S. Dollars.

  • Delivery: The final rating report will be delivered to the email address you provide. We aim to deliver the report within a reasonable timeframe but do not guarantee a specific delivery date.

 

5. Legal Disclaimer for Rating Service

 

The rating and analysis provided by Cover Collect is for informational and entertainment purposes only. The rarity assessment, scarcity score, and historical information are based on a comprehensive analysis of publicly available data. The report provided to you is NOT a certificate of authenticity, a formal monetary appraisal, or financial advice. We make no warranties about the authenticity or market value of your item. For official authentication or financial valuation, you must consult a certified philatelic expert or appraisal service. You agree not to hold Cover Collect liable for any financial or other decisions you make based on our rating and analysis.
