General
What is RSRV?
RSRV is a premium mystery repack platform featuring curated collections of authentic, graded trading cards. Every release contains a published checklist, so you know exactly what cards are available before purchasing.
Unlike traditional mystery products, every possible outcome is disclosed upfront, allowing collectors to make informed decisions.
How does it work?
- Reserve your pack by completing checkout.
- Join our livestream as we randomly assign and reveal your card.
- Decide whether to keep your card or use our Guaranteed Buyback Program.
- If you keep it, we’ll securely ship your card to you.
How are cards assigned?
Cards are assigned completely at random during the livestream using random.org as the randomizer. Every purchased pack corresponds to one random card from the published checklist.
This creates a double-blind process: random.org determines the assignment, while PSA Verified release controls help ensure the checklist and pack process are reviewed independently. No cards are pre-assigned or reserved for specific customers.

The Livestream
Do I need to watch the livestream?
No. Watching live is completely optional. Every livestream is recorded, and a replay will be available afterward.
If you’re unable to attend, we’ll still process your order exactly the same way.
Where can I watch?
You can watch on our Instagram page at @thersrv.io. We’ll also email event details before the livestream.
What happens if the livestream is delayed?
If an unforeseen issue causes a delay, we’ll notify customers via email and social media with the updated schedule.
Your reservation remains valid.
03 // The assets
Cards & Authentication
What do I actually receive?
You receive one randomly assigned card from the published checklist for that specific release. Every card shown in the checklist is eligible to be pulled.
Are the cards authentic?
Yes. Every graded card retains its original grading company’s certification and can be verified directly using the certification number on the slab.
Each RSRV release is also reviewed by PSA, the industry’s leading authentication and grading company.
Are all cards graded?
Unless otherwise stated on the product page, every card included in an RSRV release is professionally graded. The grading company and grade for each card are listed on the checklist.
Can I verify my card?
Absolutely. Every graded card includes a certification number that can be verified directly through the grading company’s online database.
04 // Guaranteed exit
Buyback Program
How does the guaranteed buyback work?
Every card has a published guaranteed buyback value. If you decide not to keep your card, email buyer@thersrv.io within 3 business days of the livestream.
Once your eligibility is confirmed, we’ll purchase your card for the listed amount.
When do I receive payment?
Approved buybacks are typically processed within several business days after we receive confirmation and complete the transaction details.
Can I request a buyback later?
No. Buyback requests must be submitted within 3 business days of the livestream.
05 // Secure logistics
Shipping
When will my card ship?
Cards are typically shipped within 1–3 business days after the livestream unless you’ve elected to use the buyback program.
How are cards packaged?
Every card is shipped securely in protective packaging designed for collectible trading cards, including RSRV premium boxes. Tracking is included on all shipments.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. International shipping is available to many countries. Import duties, taxes, customs fees, and local charges are the responsibility of the recipient.
Can I combine multiple orders?
Whenever possible, we’ll combine eligible orders to reduce shipping costs. If you’ve placed multiple orders, contact us before shipment.
06 // Purchase policy
Orders & Returns
What forms of payment do you accept?
Accepted payment methods are shown at checkout and may include major credit cards, debit cards, and accelerated checkout options such as Shop Pay, Apple Pay, and Google Pay when available.
Can I cancel my order?
Orders cannot be cancelled once checkout has been completed. Your purchase immediately reserves one of the limited available positions in the live break.
Do you accept returns?
All sales are final. Because every pack reservation affects the published pool and livestream allocation, we cannot accept returns or exchanges.
However, every release includes our Guaranteed Buyback Program, giving collectors a transparent exit option if they decide not to keep their card.
What if my shipment arrives damaged?
Please contact us within 48 hours of delivery and include photos of:
- The shipping box
- The protective packaging
- The card
- The shipping label
We’ll work with you to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
07 // Open by design
Fairness & Transparency
How do I know the draw is fair?
Every draw is conducted live and recorded for complete transparency. The published checklist represents the entire pool, and cards are assigned randomly during the livestream.
Do you know which card I’ll receive before the livestream?
No. Cards are not pre-assigned to customers. Assignments occur live during the drawing process.
Are odds published?
Yes. Every release includes a complete checklist of every card available in the pool. Because the checklist is fully disclosed, collectors know every possible outcome before purchasing.

Account
Do I need an account?
An account is recommended so you can manage your orders, view your purchase history, and receive livestream updates. Guest checkout may be available for certain releases.
