We’re excited to introduce our free conditioning overlays, a printable transparency tool designed to help sellers visually and consistently identify card imperfections using industry-leading, objective criteria. No more guesswork or mismatched expectations, just clear, accessible standards that help protect value and build confidence with every transaction. By aligning buyer and seller standards with the same conditioning framework used in our authentication center, we’re creating a more consistent and reliable marketplace experience for everyone.
These overlays directly map to the TCGplayer Card Conditioning Standard, to easily identify the following:
- Imperfection Type (e.g., Scratch, Edgewear, Bend)
- Severity Level
- Condition Label
For more information on how to use the overlays, check out our Conditioning Overlays Printing and Usage Instructions. If you have any feedback on the conditioning overlays, please fill out our feedback form.
