Simply send us an e-mail via the request item link with a very detailed description of the item you would like us to find.   If you want a graded card (Note: Collect a Dream only accepts the best card authenticators: PSA and BGS), please list the grade requested.  If you are looking for a graded wax pack, cello pack, rack pack or box (Note: Collect a Dream only accepts the best wax pack, cello pack, rack pack and box grader: GAI), please list the grade requested.  Please be specific if it is an autographed item you are looking for.

 Save Time:  Collect a Dream has hundreds of collection specialists (private and commercial) with whom we network.  These collection specialists often have that hard-to-find item you are looking for.  This saves you hours of searching for your desired item on the internet, telephone, or at sports card shows.

Quality and Authenticity:   Collect a Dream finds and makes available only the highest quality items.  Every autographed item is marked with a sticker or a pictured letter of authenticity (LOA).  You will never receive an LOA without a picture of the specified item.  Collect a Dream only accepts items that are authenticated or certified by the best in the business (PSA/DNA, Tri-Star, Steiner, Mounted Memories, Jimmy Spence Authentication, Mike Gutierrez, SGC and Upper Deck).   If you are looking for a graded card or wax pack, Collect a Dream will be more than happy to find it for you.  The more specific you are about the sports card, wax pack, or piece of memorabilia, the easier it will be for us to deliver satisfaction. We only accept sports cards graded by PSA and BGS and wax packs graded by GAI, all three industry leaders.
