Card Condition Policy

Raw cards

Raw cards are sold based on the photographs and written condition description. Review every photo before buying. We describe visible flaws such as soft corners, edge wear, surface scratches, print lines, and off-centering.

Raw cards are not guaranteed to receive a specific grade.

Graded cards

Graded cards are evaluated by independent third-party grading companies such as PSA, SGC, BGS, and CGC. The grade is theirs, not ours. Certification details should be independently verified on the grading company's website when appropriate.

Slab cases can show light scratches from handling. We note cracks or major case damage.

Photos

Product images match the exact card being sold unless clearly labeled as a stock image.

Authenticity

We sell authentic, licensed products only. If you believe an item is not authentic, contact us right away.

See our card condition guide for a full walkthrough of what we check.
