I purchased and opened a pack at the Pokémon Center on December 11th, and the Canary card was inside. I immediately put the card into a sleeve and stored it in a hard case after pulling it. I believe it's in good condition, based on my own assessment. However, this is just my personal opinion. Please examine the photos carefully to judge for yourself whether there are any initial scratches or white spots. While I personally think it's in great condition, I would appreciate it if you considered it to be for play use. Would be suitable for those considering grading services like PSA. To prevent any issues, returns and exchanges are not accepted. This is a high-value item. Please be sure to examine the photos and be satisfied before making a purchase.
