Pack fresh cards aren’t near mint?

Review

Card conduit is exactly what you would expect from a business in 2025. Slow pay out hidden fees. Most of my cards were pack fresh and never played but most got marked down to say a light played. Was deducted $300 off original payment due to grading . If you’re looking to get 40% for your magic cards card conduit is the perfect place.

As graded, the price paid for this shipment was 64.7% after our fees of the NM TCGLow Value. Certainly this is lower than the 79.3% we would have paid had the cards all been NM, but it is much higher than 40%.

"Pack fresh" unfortunately is not a grade for a card. We always strongly recommend that folks inspect their cards for wear before sending them in, as assumptions about the condition can lead to disappointment. Ultimately, we need to grade the cards as they are received with consistent conditioning standards. Anyone concerned about the grading not matching the conditioning standards should consider a hold for review which will allow us to discuss the cards to get on the same page prior to finalizing your shipment. Even without a hold, we encourage you to reach out to discuss any surprises with your shipment - we will always do our best to try to reach an acceptable conclusion with you!

The payment was delayed by a day as a result of the bank holiday, but unfortunately that is not something we can control. We do offer the ability to be paid the next business day after you receive your report, but that was not selected in this instance.
We launched our reviews feature in January 2021, and invited every previous customer to leave a review. Reviewers have the option to omit their payout/fee amounts and shipment highlights page. We publish all reviews, unedited, but may post a response in certain cases. We may need to remove a review if it's offensive (profanity, etc).
