Spots or lent or scratch on graded card

Hi all, just wanted to ask about this card I just purchased. It was kind of expensive and didn’t know if I should worry about it. There are a couple small white things maybe dust or lent and also a hair or scratch up near his helmet. I’m hoping it’s just some hair or something and not scratch. I read some other post about this on google and maybe it’s normal but I didn’t know if I should be worried about future selling of the card and if others will care about this? Just wondering if I should return it or keep the card.

It’s a BGS 10 pristine. Circled the question areas in red. You can see the particles better in person. The hair or tiny scratch thing by the helmet is the main concern.

Also I don’t want to return it if these things aren’t issues.

Thanks!

I would think it is lint and is a-ok. Those spots are not normal so I think it just some kind of speck. the other thing may be a tiny hair? I see several worse scratches on your pic than that, like by his left knee and up top by the bowman logo. I think it is fine.

Yeah the other scratches are just from the plastic bag that’s around the case. The ones I circled are in the case or on the card. Thanks!

BGS bags are terrible when it comes to defects, marks, debris and whatnot. looks like you just have some minor debris caught in there.
