TCG PLAYER OFFICIAL Card Conditioning Overview
TCGplayer aims to increase customer satisfaction by defining standards that reduce ambiguity, and ensure customer expectations are met.
Please note: the TCGplayer marketplace allows sellers to list cards in Near Mint, Lightly Played, Moderately Played, Heavily Played, and Damaged condition. Mint or Gem Mint cards are not sold on TCGplayer.
TCGplayer card conditions are a point of reference for both Buyers and Sellers. TCGplayer has collected feedback from players, retailers, and the community, and we've used their input to develop guidelines that address common concerns about card conditions. By providing clear criteria of what a card should look like at each condition, we make sure everyone knows what to expect when buying and selling cards on TCGplayer.com.
As TCGplayer refines its conditioning processes and as new products are released by publishers, the standards may need to be updated or added to. The Conditioning Release Notes section of our help center contains the help files which outline these updates; this information will also be reflected or referred to in the Comprehensive Guide linked below, once published.
This help file aims to give a brief overview of card conditioning expectations from TCGplayer and guide users to more detailed resources. This guide has been developed to simplify our Card Condition Standards, which outline the criteria for our conditioning scale. The Understanding Card Condition Imperfections: A Comprehensive Guide help file provides more specific details on the imperfections that impact card condition and how they are evaluated by TCGplayer.
Conditioning
The condition of a card is determined by the number and extent of imperfections that a card exhibits. Imperfections include wear and damage as a result of play, handling, and/or storage as well as any atypical printing or manufacturing defects. Imperfections are characterized by both a Type (ex: scratch) and a Severity (ex: slight). Some imperfections may impact the integrity of a card, as defined below. Typically, imperfections that impact a card’s integrity will result in the card being considered Damaged. We consider these 3 aspects with regards to the integrity of a card:
Structure: The physical structure and stability of the card and its cardstock
Playability: The ability of the card to be used as a game piece
Authentication: The ability for the card to be verified as legitimate using the manufacturer’s authentication markers
Near Mint /// Near Mint Foil
Cards in Near Mint (NM) condition show minimal wear from shuffling, 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 a couple minor scratches, but overall look nearly unplayed with no major defects. Certain manufacturing defects such as miscuts/shifting may cause an otherwise Near Mint card to be considered Damaged and no longer eligible for Direct. These cards can still be listed on the Marketplace as Damaged, or as a Listing with Photo at the condition the card would be at if it was not defected.
The acceptable range of cards within the Near Mint condition includes both cards with no imperfections and cards with few, minimal imperfections.
Lightly Played /// Lightly Played Foil
Cards in Lightly Played (LP) condition may have minor edge wear, scuffs, or scratches. There are no significant imperfections or issues with the structural integrity of the card. Noticeable imperfections are okay, but none should be too severe or at too high a volume.
The acceptable range of cards within the Lightly Played condition includes both cards with few or a handful of minor imperfections.
Moderately Played /// Moderately Played Foil
Cards in Moderately Played (MP) condition can have edge wear, surface wear, scratching or scuffing, bends with creases, or a combination of moderate examples of these imperfections. Some imperfections, such as bends, peels, or liquid exposure may be acceptable at Moderately Played as long as they do not impact the structural integrity of the card. Measurements provided with the standards will determine acceptability.
