Card Grading:

Grading cards is a subjective art form. I try to follow the TCGPlayer(Recently purchased by eBay) grading guide. Sometimes I?ll even put a grade like Very Light Play or Light to Moderate. The reason for that is because a could be on the High or Low end of a Card Grade.

Near Mint (NM) - Mostly clean card with very few flaws. Card should have clean corners with no wear but could have a tiny ding at a corner or edge. There could be some minor scuffing and scratches, especially on the back of the card. I am stricter about the front of the card. Not so much with the back of the card. Keep in mind I even open fresh packs and get cards with scratches and corner dings. If you are a card collector message me if you have any questions. Especially for cards from older sets.

Light Play (LP)? Cards will have some corner and/or edge wear. There could be a small bend but nothing major. There could also be some minor scuffing on the front. If I see more than a few dings, nicks and scratches I?ll downgrade the card to Moderate Play.

Moderate Play (MP)? Cards have a wide range of conditions. This could include cards that are very close to Light Play or close to Heavy Play. Expect some bends and/or a crease or two. I don?t usually sell cards in this condition so it you want an exact grade please contact me.

Heavy Play ? What can I say. The card is a total wreck. Creases and heavy wear.
