Condition

Our condition grades (NM, LP, etc.) are based on proprietary raw-card grading standards with an emphasis on overall eye appeal. Each card is evaluated individually, and minor variance within a grade range should be expected.

High-resolution scans and videos are always the primary reference for condition and should be reviewed carefully prior to purchase.

All condition assessments are opinions based on our internal grading criteria. While our standards are in line with and often exceed typical marketplace guidelines, we do not guarantee how a card may grade with third-party grading companies such as PSA, Beckett, or CGC. Buyers are encouraged to use their own judgment when evaluating each listing.

Windfall Condition Guide

NEAR MINT (NM+/-)

Minor flaws may be present, but overall appearance remains close to pack fresh. Very light holofoil scratches or small specks of whitening may exist. Surface, edges, and corners retain strong sharpness but may show extremely minor imperfections such as tiny nicks or dings. No creases, stress marks, or significant structural damage.

LIGHTLY PLAYED (LP+/-)

Strong overall eye appeal, but scratches, whitening, and edgewear may be more noticeable, larger, or more numerous than Near Mint. Surface, edges, and corners may show small nicks, dings, or light dents. May exhibit very light surface impressions or subtle surface irregularities visible under light. No creases or significant structural damage.

MODERATELY PLAYED (+)

Clear signs of wear. Scratches and indentations may be deeper or more frequent. Moderate edgewear may begin to soften corners and borders with light fraying. May include small dents or one or two minor creases or stress marks.

HEAVILY PLAYED

Significant wear throughout. Scratches and edgewear are obvious. May include multiple dents, a larger crease, or several smaller creases.

DAMAGED

Extensive wear affecting structural integrity. May include heavy creasing, stains, peeling, water or humidity damage, or other substantial flaws.
