By purchasing any raw trading card from our website, you acknowledge and agree to the following terms and conditions.


1. Product Photos & Scanned Images

All raw cards listed on our website are scanned using high-resolution scanners to provide accurate visibility of the card’s condition.

Please note:

  • Some scanned images may display lines, reflections, dust particles, or marks caused by the scanner, sleeve, or top loader.
  • Certain lines visible in the image may appear on the protective sleeve or top loader only and not on the actual card itself.
  • We always aim to represent the card as accurately as possible through the uploaded images.

Customers are responsible for reviewing all photos carefully before purchasing.

By completing your order, you confirm that:
