I have placed the item in a sleeve immediately after opening it. While I don't see any noticeable scratches, there may be minor scratches or white spots. To avoid any issues, please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a completely flawless item. Also, to prevent any problems, please do not ask questions such as "Are there any holo scratches or white spots?" Please purchase this item for play only. Returns are not accepted under any circumstances to prevent swapping. Please consider this before making a purchase.
