Slight clouding – These are areas on the card that appear ‘clouded’ due to micro-scratching on the surface generally caused by dust or dirt.These scratches should be isolated to one instance, or two to three very minor instances Slight scratching – Surface scratches that do not affect the colouring of the card.Slight corner wear- nicks on no more than two corners of the card that do not exceed past 10% of the outer black border.Concentrated or more prominent border wear will likely move the card into Slightly Played
Slight border wear – Three or fewer small nicks viewable upon close inspection.A near mint card will show little to no wear and is always tournament legal in a sleeve.Ĭards that show more than one of the issues listed below are likely to be downgraded to Slightly Played.Įxamples of issues that can occur on near mint cards: Scanned cards you see in our inventory or on our website may not explicitly note a condition, and you can reference the image associated with the scan to get information on the wear of the card.Ĭards in this condition are often indistinguishable from other copies of the same card. Foil cards can be more susceptible to some types of wear such as scratching/clouding, and therefore the foiled portion of the card is looked at with extra care when grading. The overall condition of both sides of the card are considered when grading. All of our staff are trained under the guidelines expressed in this guide. Below you will find a guide for what to expect when buying or selling at the different conditions we display on our website: NM (Near Mint), SP (Slightly Played), MP (Moderately Played), HP (Heavily Played), DMG (Damaged). At Chimera Gaming we are always striving towards the highest of accuracy when grading and conditioning cards we buy/sell.
