Thank you for viewing. After pulling the card, I immediately put it in a sleeve and stored it. I believe there are no noticeable initial scratches, but please understand that this is based on a visual inspection and is for play. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about the condition. Please refer to the photos for the card's condition and only purchase if you are satisfied. Due to the risk of replacement and to prevent any issues, we cannot accept returns or exchanges after purchase. Thank you for your understanding. When shipping, the card will be placed in a sleeve and measures will be taken to prevent bending and water damage.
