Needs review

Seller title

Claims “Refractor.” A title claim alone does not establish the parallel.

Accepted

Base identity

Year, set, player, card number, grader, and grade align with the target.

Excluded

Completed-sale record

The record is Base / Unstated. It does not prove the claimed Refractor market.

Insufficient

Target coverage

No accepted exact-parallel record supports the target identity in this example.

Why this decision

The base identity is consistent, but the claimed Refractor parallel remains unverified. The available completed-sale record represents a different or unspecified parallel, so FlipForge excludes it from supported value and refuses to manufacture a precise recommendation.

04

Required next checks

The dossier turns uncertainty into an explicit worklist.

  1. 1
    Inspect front and back images

    Look for the visual characteristics required to distinguish the claimed parallel.

  2. 2
    Confirm the slab description

    Verify that the grader label identifies the same card and parallel being evaluated.

  3. 3
    Replace mismatched evidence

    Use completed-sale evidence that matches year, set, player, number, parallel, grader, and grade.

  4. 4
    Rerun evidence review

    Only then reassess supported value, liquidity, risk, and the recommendation state.

Sample and authority boundary

This page is an illustrative product example, not a live card evaluation, current price, accuracy claim, financial recommendation, grading prediction, or authorization to bid, buy, sell, or pay. A real decision depends on the evidence available for that exact card at the time of review.
