Image Quality Analysis
Fair — 59/100ShadowsCard edge cut off (top, right) — grade may be inaccurateLighting: unevenBackground: patterned
Photo issues
- uneven lighting on the right side
- card edge cut off by photo frame (top, right sides)
Visible card condition
- minor top right corner wear
To help our card-detection AI evaluate your LeBron James basketball card as accurately as possible, try centering your light source overhead to minimize the shadows cast across the surface. Additionally, because the top and right edges of the card extend past the edge of the photo, re-photograph with the entire card fully inside the frame so all edges can be properly analyzed.

💡
Not getting the grade you expected?
Your photo quality directly affects the AI's ability to read your card accurately. Here are the most common things that can affect your grade — and how to fix them:
🖼️
Use a plain background
Patterned or colorful backgrounds make it harder for the AI to detect your card's true edges. Place your card on a solid white or light-colored surface before photographing.
🃏
Scan raw cards — no sleeves or toploaders
Penny sleeves and toploaders reflect light and blur fine details. The AI can't accurately assess corners, edges, or surface through plastic. Remove all holders before scanning.
🔍
Fill the frame — get close
The more of the image your card occupies, the more detail the AI can see. Small or distant cards lose corner sharpness and surface detail. Crop in so the card fills most of the photo.
💡
Use even, shadow-free lighting
Shadows, glare, and camera flash create artifacts that look like surface defects to the AI. Use soft, diffused lighting from multiple angles — or scan on a flatbed scanner for the most consistent results.
📐
Keep the card flat and straight
A tilted or bent card distorts centering measurements and can create false edge wear readings. Place the card flat on a solid surface and shoot directly from above.
✅ Fix these issues and rescan — you'll often see better grade on the second attempt. Every credit saves you from wasting a $25–$80 grading submission fee.
