ABOUT OUR ITEMS
The Bakugan Card listed here is the actual one you will receive. All of the cards we have will be individually listed. From my research I can see that there are Metal Gate Cards & Ability Cards (non-metal). Of course there are multiple variations of each kind. For Ability Cards we've found that there are Red, Blue & Green cards issued for both Season 1 Battle Brawlers & Season 2 New Vestroia. Additionally for these style cards there were specialty cards issued: Foil (mainly silver accents, though some also come in gold), Holographic (Holo cards are covered in prism style speckles), and Lenticular (thick plastic coating on card to give it a 3D effect). Season 3 Gundalian Invaders also have Red, Blue & Green Ability Cards. Some of the Character cards are black & purple with Purple backs, and there are also Battle Gear Cards with Blue backs. Season 4 Mechtanium Surge also have Red, Blue & Green Ability Cards. There are also some Character cards that have Blue backs. If you are looking for more of a specific card we have available, we may have more. Just ask!
For Ability cards they all seem to have the Card Number (BA---), Date, and the Card/Deck number listed at bottom of card from left to right. These details will be listed in above description. Unlike the Metal Gate Cards, these Ability Cards don't seem to have many cards that were issued with Imprinted Serial Numbers. I did come across some, so they will also be noted above and pictured.
So as not to damage the cards we used a slightly damp microfiber cloth to wipe down the cards before picturing them, then they were placed into their fold & seal bag. We've done our best to only list cards that are in good to very good cosmetic condition. These are all "UNGRADED" cards, and even if they look excellent & better, I will list them as Moderately played - very good as everyone has a different opinion on what that means. I'd rather you be happily surprised at the condition when you receive the card.
For Ability Cards there is usually scuffing/surface rub wear from the stacking and storage of the cards, and also the use during gameplay. The edges can show dings, bend easily and fray (thicken), especially the corners. We made sure to take pictures of front, back, each long side, short top & bottom. This should give you a good view of the condition of each card. However, it can be hard to see what the surface shows (scuffs/scratches). I will try to note if there is more obvious indented scratches.
SHIPPING DETAILS
For Bakugan Cards we are set up to use eBay's Standard Envelope to offer buyers an economical shipping option. So Bakugan cards have been set up with FREE US shipping under eBay's Standard Envelope. The envelopes are slightly rigid, and offer more protection than a standard envelope but there is no other packing material with this method. They also provide tracking and basic insurance. We can combine multiple cards into 1 package, though we may have to use more than 1 envelope depending on how many cards are purchased as there is a 3oz. limit for each envelope. We will also offer a boxed shipping option for USPS Ground Advantage for those buyers who want more protected shipment of their purchase. We highly recommend requesting an invoice for larger orders, as we can send an invoice with multiple options.
*We are not responsible for any damage during shipment. We do offer boxed shipping for those buyers who wish for more protection, just ask. For those buyers who are purchasing both cards & Bakugan please request a total, as automatic discounts aren't available.
We print shipping labels directly through ebay, so please make sure that the address listed is correct and complete. Our USPS Mail Carrier makes daily pickups from our home Monday - Friday, so we do our best to get your order out very quickly. The Bakugan Card will be shipped in a slightly rigid envelope, while this is the most economical option it doesn't provide much protection from damage. We do have other options, please ask! The tracking details will be available on your purchase page, and we do our best to send a message to let you know that your package is on its way. If you have any questions or concerns about your order please let us know.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS
Our listings aren't normally set up for International shipping, though at this time we are currently participating in eBay's International Shipping Program. *Please note that the Free Shipping option is only for Bakugan Cards, and only for the US portion of the delivery. For buyers that wish to purchase multiple items please feel free to contact me with a list of the items you wish to purchase. I can create a special reserved listing for you with those items. I will pull those items, take a few pictures, and list them together just for you. The shipping weight will be adjusted to reflect the actual weight of the order, and eBay will be able to accurately discount the International portion based on the combined weight of the box. Depending on how many items, we may have to use a box and not the Standard Envelope for shipping. We have no control over the costs/fees for the International portion of the delivery, as far as I know it is based on the box size & weight. For more details please feel free to contact us, we'll get back to you as soon as we can. **Special Note** We are unable to combine shipping on multiple separate orders as eBay assigns a transaction # to the shipping address on the label, which makes those orders unable to be combined.
