I was wondering how well their SP one quality is. I've seen the pics, and some I feel unsure about, so I was hoping to get a first hand account from someone who buys from them.

I remember one having an extremely tiny but noticeable nick on a side, but other than that it was basically NM. If you're no stickler about card quality being as pristine as you want, I suggest saving some dough.

Thanks, I was looking for feedback like this. Value shopping like mad to finish a deck for Christmas.

If you're worried about scratches or bends, at least in my experience, those didn't exist.

lol. I ordered some Steam Vents just because they were like 6 bucks a pop.

Good luck with your purchases!

SP is probably one of the best conditions to buy. SCG is a good business: if a card shows even a sign of play (slight scratching, white fleck, etc.), it's categorized as SP. They don't take chances marking those things as NM/M. The worst you'll get is perhaps some flecking.

Ok, thanks everyone! There are some other things from them I want to buy, like sleeves and deck boxes, so I was planning to throw some cards in there too to cut down on shipping costs at every angle.

The SP is pretty good quality. I bought M/NM and SP cards in the same bundle, and you could not see the difference in them. I think if you can save a buck or two, go for it.
