    Is there an illustrated scale of how to tell the condition of a pin? I see lots of "playfield 9/10!" but no standardized guide for rating. If there isn't one, I think pinside should make one, using pictures and input from all members. I want to honestly sell and describe my pins using quantifiable points. It's very difficult when no one agrees what makes a 7 different than an 8, and what even to rate. I want to see stuff like Cabinet Art Condition: "scratch longer than 2 inches: -.6 points" "Wear around buttons: -1 point" "Heavy fading: -3 points", with pictures of all of them.

    Quoted from hawkeye11:

    There is a "Condition Grading Guide" in the Pinballeric Price Guide.

    Hmm, we don't have that one. We have every year of the Mr. Pinball one going back ages, but not pinballeric. Does it have pictures?
