Bakugan BA119a-NO-SM 2006 NORMAL (untitled) Metal Gate Card - HSP 350
BAKUGAN BATTLE BRAWLERS (SPIN MASTER & SEGA TOYS) - HSP METAL GATE CARD
SEASON: 1 - Classic Original HSP version
NAME: Untitled (These HSP cards are listed as "NO" - "Normal" which are issued with no name or title)
GRADED: No
YEAR: 2006
CARD NUMBER: BA119a-NO-SM (NO - Normal Card - Untitled)
HSP: 350
IMPRINTED SERIAL NUMBER: No (this version card was not issued with imprinted numbers)
CONDITION: Moderately Played - Good *(the card shows some more noticeable scratches/edge wear from play) (normally moderately played is very good, but there's no other condition between this and poor.)
*These cards are divided by type, and will have 1 of 4 different 2 letter codes on bottom as part of the card number to show what type of card it is. CC-Character Card, CO-Command Card, SP-Special Command Card (usually foil), NO-Normal Card (no name/title). Many of these cards have multiple variants, same title/different color character pictured, same title/different HSP, same title/different attribute numbers, etc.
**There are a variety of conditions we can choose for each card, but there is a big difference of conditions between Moderately Played - Very Good, and Heavily Played - Poor. For the Majority of the Classic HSP cards I would say Good+ Condition (moderate game play). Please take a look at all the pictures as they will show more about the condition of each card. And while it's hard to show up in the pictures, you can expect to find some play wear (scuffs/scratches) on surface of the card from rolling, play wear, storage, handling & age. You should be able to see the condition of the edges & corners from the pictures. You can also hover your mouse over the pictures to zoom in for more details.
***There is NO Bakugan included with this purchase***
SPECIAL NOTE: The Bakugan card pictured here is the one you will receive. The pictures are part of the description, so please take a good look at all the picture angles shown. The last picture shows the card in a fold & seal bag, which is how you will receive the card. The display stand shown in pictures is NOT included with the purchase.
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 Metal Gate Cards we've found that there are the Original HSP Cards that were issued with Season 1 (B1) smaller sized Bakugan, then the Gold, Silver & Copper Metal Gate Cards that were issued with Season 1 Battle Brawlers & Season 2 New Vestroia Bakugan, specialty sets, card packs/sets, etc. And we also have Gold, Silver & Copper Metal Gate Cards from Season 3 Gundalian Invaders & Season 4 Mechtanium Surge. If you are looking for more of a specific card we have available, we may have more. Just ask!
Some of these cards have "imprinted" numbers/letters along 1 side of the card. From my research it seems as it is the Manufacturer date, and that these cards were issued in specialty sets or card packs? Not really sure, but I will note it above in the description, and also include a picture to show the imprint. The HSP cards don't have imprinted numbesr. Most cards have a "name" which will be noted, though some don't. Most have a card number at the bottom, which will be noted above. And lastly most have a date at the bottom of the card, though many of the early ones don't. Again, if there is a year it will be noted above.
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. I will note that the original HSP cards show the most wear as they are older, but again please take a look at the pictures to see the condition of each card. 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. Some of the older cards may be listed as Heavily Played - Poor, as they show quite a bit of play & edge wear, I'd love to list as fair to good, but that description isn't listed as an option. I'd rather you be happily surprised at the condition when you receive the card.
For Metal Gate 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).
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.
