*Due to the inaccuracy of the Ebay standard size envelope "not" being recorded and tracked correctly with the USPS, Double Play LLC is abandoning the Ebay standard envelope shipping option. There are a growing amount of these envelopes that are not showing up as accepted, showing accurate tracking and or showing delivered. As of 2/27/2024 USPS ground advantage service will be used to ensure proper recognition and delivery. We will only charge a flat rate of $4.99 and "all" additional items are included with that initial cost.
Shipping and handling is $4.99 for USPS ground advantage and each additional card is $0.00.
As a courtesy we always ship out quickly, within 24 hours of payment, 6 days a week. Any payments received after 9 A.M. Monday thru Friday will ship out the next day. Any payment received after 9am Saturday will ship out Monday A.M.
We ship our ungraded raw cards, with a value $20 or under, in a top-loader inside an envelope using USPS Ground Advantage. Any cards over $20 or bulk orders we generally ship inside a box.
Any card selling for more than $250 will be automatically sent through to the buyers authentication program in Florida and they will ship the card to you once it passes authentication.
Returns: 30 day return policy no questions asked. We pay the shipping. Return the card to us in the original state you received it and we will issue you a full refund!
Payment: Please make your payment within 7 days of the auction ending. After 7 days we automatically cancel the transaction and re-list the item. We also leave appropriate feedback. For multiple orders you must settle up with us by the end of your 7 days regardless if you are bidding on more items next week.

Our grading process and beliefs:
Poor-(PR) A card that has been abused with heavily rounded corners, major and multiple creases, pieces missing, warping and overall just still showing that it is authentic.
Fair: (FR) The card will show signs of scuffs, scratches, creases, staining, chipping, rounded corners but it will be intact without missing any pieces of it.
Good: (GD) A card will begin to show some signs of corner wear, slight scuffing, blemishes of the surface, gloss may be disappearing and 90/10 overall centering.
Very Good- (VG) The card will have no more than a few creases and all be very light, no rounded corners, very light blemishing to the surface and a 85/15 centering on the front and a 90/10 reverse centering.
Excellent: (EX) The card will show very minimal rounding to the corners, the edges may be slightly chipping, several light scuffs or scratches are visible under a magnifying glass, the card will have excellent eye appeal and the centering will be 85/15 on the front and 90/10 on the reverse.
Near Mint: (NM) A card will have a very eye appealing condition and maybe have very slight surface wear under a magnifying glass, possible minor printing defects, the main amount of wax surface or gloss is still intact and present. It may look perfect to the naked eye. Centering will be 75/25 on the front and 90/10 on the back.
Mint: (MT) This is a high end card that immediately looks perfect but it will show very slight signs of edge fraying or a couple of the corners may have some slight fraying showing under a magnifying glass. There may be a slight printing defect that is also only visible thru a magnifying glass. Centering will be 70/30, or better, on the front and 90/10 or better on the back.
Gem Mint: (GEM-MT) A perfect card! 4 sharp corners, full gloss, razor sharp image, no staining, no fraying and the centering is 55/45 to 60/40 on the front and 75/25 on the reverse.
