Product Grading SystemWe follow a grading system that will insure your order will be in the best condition possible. Although we have a strict quality control, please note we have no control over the shipping carrier and how they handle packages for delivery.
THE GRADES:
C10 (MINT IN A MINT BOX):
This is impossible to find. This means that it has no flaws. Literally perfect. No manufacture defects, including the box’s color. Why is this difficult to find? People need to know that most toys are manufactured overseas (China – most popular), packaged in cardboard boxes without cushion or padding, and then thrown into freight ships. When the toys arrive in the US, they are thrown into freight trucks, shipped to the manufacture’s US centers, then to distribution centers, then possibly to us. Bottom, line we do not know how many hands have exchanged before reaching our warehouse. Thus, during all these movements, there maybe unforeseen damages to the toy. As for reading materials, it is the same, even though most are produced domestically. Reading materials are mass produced, simply meant to be read, touched, and bend.
C10 (MINT):
Our rating starts here. No visible box crease. Item is unopened. Reading materials unread and have no dents. Box packaging are unopened. Product in this condition are still consider rare.
C9-8 (NEAR MINT):
This is the realistic condition. Item is unopened. There's possibly small corner curls and small card curls. Slight scratch or small dent on window box. No tears. Why is this the realistic condition? All products are shipped and packed in cases. Meaning more than one to a box. For blister carded or window box products, they are packaged mostly in 4, 8, and 12+. Reading materials, packaged 24+ and sometimes as many as the box permits. When you take the manufacturer’s packing and product transition into consideration, realistically C-9 and C-8 are what your going to get. It’s simply the best condition possible.
C7 (FINE):
Item is unopened. Visible curls. Small tears. Minor crease and dent. Products at this grade may be listed on our site for a discounted price. Ideal for people who don’t care about the item’s condition and looking for super deals.
C6 and below:
Item is unopened. Major box crease and dent. Small tears. Products at this grade will not be sold on our site. It may be sold at our auction store for a terrific deal to good to pass. Ideal for people who don’t care about the item’s condition.
