Cards are scanned, so you might see some lines or marks on the card sleeves in the pictures. Don't worry, those aren't actually on the card itself!
- Cards that aren't Near Mint (NM) might have issues: If a card is marked less than NM, it could have creases, scratches, stains, discolored spots, bent corners, or edge problems. Always check the pictures for the real condition.
How we judge card condition:
- NM (Near Mint): Basically looks great, maybe a couple of tiny frayed corners or light surface wear. Still glossy, might have minor printing quirks or small wax stains.
- EX (Excellent): Corners might be damaged but not rounded. Could have surface wear, scratches, printing flaws, wax stains, or less shine.
- VG (Very Good): Noticeable corner damage (even rounded ones!). More obvious surface wear, could have a lot of gloss loss, noticeable scratches, major defects, or creases.
- POOR: Damaged. Just for collection's sake. Might even have markings directly on the card. Not recommended for professional grading.
