Pin/Keychain Grading System
♡ DISCLAIMER ♡
Please keep in mind that all pins and keychains are handmade, meaning every piece cannot be perfect. Colors may also vary depending on your screen settings and/or photo editing.
When you purchase one of our pins and/or keychains, it is assumed that you have read, understood, and agreed to our grading system:
✦ "STANDARD" GRADE ✦
Our pins and keychains are awesome! However, they may still have some or none of these minor/noticeable imperfections:
- small scratches or scruffs on surfaces
- small pores or faint specs/dust in enamel or epoxy
- slight discoloration in metal or epoxy
- small black marks on enamel or epoxy
- tiny pores in enamel or epoxy
Please keep this all the above in mind if you are uncomfortable or unsatisfied with less than perfection because no product is 100% perfect!
All previously graded "A" and "B" grade pins are now "STANDARD" grade pins. Pins are meant to be loved and used, and will ultimately, and inevitably, tarnish. I decided to step away from the A/B grading system to save my eyeballs and hands from deterioration after grading hundreds of pins and keychains.
✦ FLAWED ✦
These pins and keychains will be offered at a significant discount due to major noticeable imperfections:
- lower quality/leaking/overflow of enamel or epoxy
- deep scratches, scruffs. or excess enamel or epoxy on surfaces
- low fills in larger or visually prominent areas of enamel
- pin back posts are loose/wiggly/bent
- noticeable black specs or dust
- etc.
