Collector notes

Condition. Check for centering issues on SAR artwork, edge whitening, surface scratches on holo pattern, and print lines common in Japanese high-class packs; avoid cards with bubble mailer dents or soft corners.

Storage. Store in semi-rigid holders or top-loaders with sleeves in a cool, dry environment away from sunlight; use card savers for shipping.

Authenticity. Verify Japanese text, holo pattern alignment, and black market stamp placement; fakes often have blurry art or incorrect font weights—cross-reference with official scans from PokeBeach or TCGPlayer.
