I pulled this Mega Charizard ex SR myself. I put it in a sleeve immediately after opening the pack. I don't see any noticeable scratches or stains, but I'm just a regular person, so please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to imperfections or are looking for a perfect item. Please use it for play. Ultimately, please make your decision based on the images. To prevent any trouble, I do not accept cancellations or returns. Thank you for your understanding.
