Because we cannot accept returns of Pokemon cards, we ask that you look at the photos and descriptions closely.  Please contact us with any questions you have about the cards’ condition before you purchase.

We have been devoted fans and collectors of Pokemon cards since the very beginning of the game. We pride ourselves on satisfied customers and we want to make sure you are happy with your purchase.  Thank you. 

 

We follow accepted standards for card condition when selling a card. Please review the following condition descriptions used for determining our cards’ condition:

 

Near Mint /// Near Mint Foil

Cards in Near Mint (NM) condition show minimal wear from play or handling and can have a nearly unmarked surface, crisp corners and unblemished edges outside of a few slight flaws. A Near Mint card may have slight edge wear or two or three scratches, but overall look nearly unplayed with no major imperfections. The range of cards in Near Mint condition includes cards with no defects and cards with a few slight imperfections.

Lightly Played /// Lightly Played Foil

Cards in Lightly Played (LP) condition can have minor border or corner wear, scuffs or scratches. There are no major imperfections such as bends or issues with the card’s structural integrity. Noticeable imperfections are acceptable, but none can be too severe or at too high a volume.

Moderately Played /// Moderately Played Foil

Cards in Moderately Played (MP) condition can have any combination of moderate examples of border wear, corner wear, scratching or scuffing, creases or whitening. A Moderately Played card may have some form of imperfection impacting a small area of the card such as creasing that doesn’t affect card integrity, in combination with other issues such as scratches, scuffs or border/edge wear.

Heavily Played /// Heavily Played Foil

Cards in Heavily Played (HP) condition show a major amount of wear. Cards can show a variety of moderate imperfections along with creasing, whitening and bends. Heavily Played cards can also have flaws that impact the integrity of the card, but the card can still be sleeve playable.

Damaged /// Damaged Foil

Damaged cards show wear or imperfections beyond the standards for other conditions. Cards in Damaged condition can also exhibit an imperfection that may make the card illegal for tournament play, even in a sleeve. Cards in Damaged condition may have major border wear, corner wear, scratching or scuffing, as well as folds, creases, tears or other damage that impacts the structural integrity of the card.
