Last Updated: January 21, 2026

Welcome to Pristine Slabs. By accessing or using this website and its services (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Service.

1. Informational Purposes Only

The Service is provided for informational and educational purposes only. All tools, calculations, measurements, assessments, and information provided on this Service are intended to help users understand potential grading factors and should not be relied upon as professional grading advice or as a guarantee of any grading outcome.

2. No Guarantee of Grading Results

IMPORTANT: The Service does NOT guarantee any specific grade or grading outcome from any third-party grading company. Professional card grading is a complex process that involves numerous factors, many of which may not be visible or measurable through digital tools or publicly available information.

The calculations, measurements, and assessments provided by this Service are based on:

• Publicly available information about card grading standards
• General industry practices and guidelines
• User-uploaded images and digital measurements
• Automated analysis tools with inherent limitations

These sources may not fully represent the proprietary grading criteria, processes, or standards used by professional grading companies, which operate independently and may change their standards without notice.

3. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE AND ITS OPERATORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR:

• Any grading results received from third-party grading companies that differ from estimates or assessments provided by this Service
• Any financial losses, including but not limited to: grading fees, shipping costs, card value depreciation, opportunity costs, or lost profits
• Decisions made based on information or assessments provided by the Service
• Errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in the information, calculations, or assessments provided
• Any damages arising from the use or inability to use the Service
• Changes to third-party grading company standards, criteria, or processes

Users assume all risks associated with submitting cards for professional grading. The Service is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or representative of any professional card grading company.

4. No Professional Advice

The Service does not provide professional grading services or professional advice. Any information provided should not be considered as professional consultation. Users should conduct their own research and, if necessary, consult with professional graders or other qualified experts before making decisions about card grading submissions.

5. Accuracy of Information

While we strive to provide accurate tools and information, the Service:

• Makes no warranties or representations about the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any information, calculations, or assessments
• Cannot account for all factors that professional graders may consider
• Relies on user-uploaded images which may vary in quality, lighting, and representation of actual card condition
• Uses automated tools that may have technical limitations or errors

The quality and accuracy of results depend significantly on the quality of images uploaded and other user inputs, which are beyond our control.

6. User Responsibilities

By using the Service, you acknowledge and agree that:

• You understand the Service is for informational purposes only

However, we reserve the right to enter into endorsements, sponsorships, or partnerships with such companies in the future. Any reference to grading companies, their standards, or their processes is based on publicly available information and does not represent official guidance from those companies.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties
