I'm having a hard time figuring out how to grade the full trading card sets that I am planning on listing. Everything I've seen online is about grading individual cards (which I am also going to sell), but not about full sets.

If I have a full set in its original, non-factory-sealed box, and the box shows some obvious wear, but the cards don't, how should I grade it when I post it?

Also, if I have a set that's *mostly* factory sealed, but whose plastic wrapping was damaged slightly, but they are otherwise pretty much perfect, how should they be listed? I'm guessing they shouldn't be posted as new, but I'm not sure what the best option would be.

You will have much better luck if you post this in the group that I am linking below for you. It is where those with Sportscards questions post on Ebay although most have moved on to Facebook and ask their questions in the various card groups over there. Good luck though
