Package Grading System

Absolute transparency on the condition of your collectibles.

Our Condition Standards

As collectors ourselves, we know condition matters. Every single item that enters our NY warehouse is personally inspected and assigned a strict grade so you know exactly what you are paying for. We conservatively estimate our grades, meaning an item will often arrive looking better than its assigned grade.

Sealed Items (Box Grade)

For sealed items, the factory seal is unbroken and the figure inside is guaranteed untouched. The grade applies ONLY to the external cardboard box.

  • Grade S+ (Collector Mint): Flawless. Zero dents, creases, or scuffs. Pulled directly from a master case.
  • Grade S (Mint Box): Case-fresh. Standard retail condition. May have microscopic wear visible only under harsh light.
  • Grade A (Minor Wear): Light corner dings or minor surface scuffs. Best for out-of-box collectors.
  • Grade B (Worn Box): Significant flaws like creases, tears, or deep dents. Discounted.
  • Grade C (Damaged Box): Severe box damage. Refer to specific "Condition Notes" on the product page.

Opened Items (Figure Grade)

If the factory seal is broken, Grades S+ and S do not exist. We provide actual, unedited photos of the item for Grade B and lower.

  • Grade A (New Item, Opened Box): Figure is brand new/never displayed. Box has minor wear.
  • Grade B (Displayed Item, Worn Box): Figure was previously displayed but remains in excellent condition. Box shows storage wear.
  • Grade C (Worn Item / Missing Part): Figure has visible scuffs, paint transfers, or is missing minor accessories.
  • Grade D (Damaged Item / Ripped Box): Significant damage to the figure (broken pegs, deep scratches) and severely damaged packaging. Heavily discounted.
