* I see acronyms like MOC and MISB in your item descriptions. What exactly does that mean?
We sell new as well as vintage and pre-owned items, and accurately describing each item's condition is super important to us! We want to make sure you know exactly what you're getting, so we take lots of detailed pictures and use industry-terms to describe everything as well as we can!
Here are some condition acronyms you might see on our items, and exactly what they mean!
NWT - New With Tags
The item is brand new with its original tags.
Usually used for things fabric items like apparel: clothing, hats, bags, etc!
NWOT - New Without Tags
The item is brand new, never used, but either did not originally come with tags, or is without its original tags. Again, usually used on fabric items or apparel.
MOC - Mint On Card
Vintage or pre-owned toys and other collectibles that are still on their unopened product cards and in mint condition inside are considered MOC. The cards themselves may not be in like-new condition but the items inside are factory fresh!
MISB - Mint In Sealed Box
Vintage or pre-owned toys and other collectibles that have unopened boxes and are still in mint condition inside those boxes are considered MISB. The boxes themselves may have some wear but the items inside are factory fresh!

COMPLETE
A toy or game may be referred to as COMPLETE. That means it does not have any of its original packaging, but does come with all its original accessories.
