Trading Policies

1. Grading Standards

We utilize industry-standard conditioning (similar to TCGplayer). Please inspect your cards under bright light before sending.

  • Near Mint (NM): Pack fresh appearance. Minimal to no edgewear. No clouding.
  • Lightly Played (LP): Minor edgewear visible. Few minor scratches. No bends or creases.
  • Moderately Played (MP): Distinct edgewear, shuffling marks, or minor binder indentation.
  • Damaged (DMG): Creases, water damage, inking, or heavy wear. We generally do not buy Damaged cards.

2. Counterfeit Policy

We have a zero-tolerance policy for counterfeit cards. All cards are authenticated using loupes, weight tests, and light tests.

Warning: Any counterfeit cards sent to us will be confiscated and DESTROYED. They will not be returned to you. This is to protect the community from fake cards re-entering circulation.

3. Shipping & Returns

Packaging: Cards should be unsleeved (unless over $20 value) and tightly packed so they do not slide. We are not responsible for damage during transit to us.

Returns: If we downgrade your cards and the total offer changes significantly, we will email you. If you decline the new offer, you must pay a flat $5.00 return shipping fee before we mail your cards back.
