How I grade a card
No optimistic grading, no “NM-ish”. Every listing states a condition from this table and shows the flaw that decided it. If you think I called one wrong, send it back and I will pay the postage both ways.
| Grade | Name | What it means | Priced at |
|---|---|---|---|
| NM | Near Mint | Pack fresh. No whitening, no surface wear, centred within tolerance. | 100% of market |
| LP | Lightly Played | Minor edge whitening or a soft corner. Nothing you would see sleeved. | 80 - 90% |
| MP | Moderately Played | Visible whitening, light scratching, or a small bend. Still tournament legal. | 60 - 70% |
| HP | Heavily Played | Creasing, heavy wear or a mark. Photographed from every angle before it lists. | 35 - 50% |
What happens after you hit buy
Four steps, the same every time, whether the order is a five dollar pack or a fifteen hundred dollar slab.
Sleeved
Penny sleeve first, opening taped shut so nothing works its way loose in transit.
Toploaded
A 35pt rigid holder, or a fitted foam case if the card came back from grading.
Team bagged
Sealed against rain, then padded so it cannot slide around inside the mailer.
Noted
A handwritten thank-you goes in every order. Nine times out of ten it gets a photo back.
Placeholder — a photo of you at your table goes here.
Hi - I’m the one packing it
Pocket & Petal is one person and one table. I buy the singles, photograph them, write the descriptions, and sleeve every order myself before it goes out.
That is the whole reason the condition notes on this site are so specific. Nobody else touches these cards, so if a corner is soft I am the one who saw it - and I would rather tell you than have you find out.

“I have bought from a lot of shops and this is the only one where the card turned up looking better than the photos. The Moonbreon was packed like it was going to space.”
Tell me what you are hunting
I go to three card shows a month and open a lot of sealed product. If your card turns up, you get first refusal at my normal price before it ever hits the shop.
