Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as "vintage" in card collecting?
Roughly pre-1980 for sports cards, pre-2004 for Pokémon (WOTC era), and the original Magic: The Gathering sets (Alpha through Unlimited). Vintage is condition-sensitive and authentication-critical.
Should I buy vintage raw or graded?
Graded eliminates condition guesswork and provides authentication. Raw is cheaper but riskier — only buy raw from shops with a return policy or longstanding reputation.
Will vintage shops appraise my collection?
Most will eyeball informally for free. Formal written appraisals (for insurance or estate purposes) usually carry a fee.
