GRADING SYSTEM: 

How enamel pins are graded and quality checked.

We implement a grading system on our enamel pins to provide the best quality products for our customers. However, due to the pin manufacturing being a hand made process, pins are not perfect and we do our best to grade the pins as fairly as possible. 

​We use a two tier grading system: Grade A and Grade B

A Grade: no discount

Has little to no flaws. Includes a backing card with artwork (unless noted otherwise). 

B Grade: (seconds) minor discount

Has minor flaws that include (but are not limited to) the following: 

• Over enamel fill
• Under enamel fill
• Dents
• Scratches
• Bubbles

There are no returns or exchanges on B Grade pins.

Some designs will not have B Grade options for purchase.

Please note every maker grades pins according to their own standards. 

Below highlights the different types of flaws:
