Grading
How we grade our pre-owned games:
SW - Shrink Wrapped. Still in the original factory shrink wrap, with any condition visible through shrink noted. For example, SW (NM) means shrink wrapped in near-mint condition.
MINT - Perfect. Brand new.
NM - Near Mint. Like new with only the slightest wear, many times indistinguishable from a Mint item. Close to perfect, very collectible. Board & war games in this condition will show very little to no wear, and are considered to be "punched" unless the condition notes "unpunched."
EX - Excellent. Lightly used, but almost like new. May show very small spine creases or slight corner wear. Absolutely no tears and no marks, a collectible condition.
VG - Very Good. Used. May have medium-sized creases, corner dings, minor tears or scuff marks, small stains, etc. Complete and very useable.
FAIR - Very well used, but complete and useable. May have flaws such as tears, pen marks or highlighting, large creases, stains, marks, etc.
POOR - Extremely well used and has major flaws, which may be too numerous to mention. Item is complete unless noted.
