Condition & Grading Challenges
Surface & Edges: Player cards are graded heavily on 'Eye Appeal'. Scratches on the player's face or jersey are penalized more harshly than background flaws. Surface gloss consistency is key.
Investment Profile
Player Index: Value is correlated to Hall of Fame status and cultural relevance. 'GOAT' tier players (Jordan, Mantle, Brady) operate independently of broader market crashes.
