Selling Tips
Raw cards of this tier are usually best sold ungraded unless condition is pristine. Take clear photos outside of the toploader if possible against a dark background to show the gold foil and surface condition clearly. Ship securely in a penny sleeve, top loader, and team bag inside a bubble mailer.
