Field notes
The workflow emphasizes removing sleeves and toploaders before photographing, since the page says plastic glare can hide wear. Its Lugia example separates centering, corners and edges, and surface findings, then gives a likely grade alongside a range. The page also explains that grading follows the card’s weakest point and presents raw and graded prices as checks against linked marketplace listings.
