What we take
Most of it, including the cheap half.
A collection is usually a handful of good cards and a long tail of ordinary ones, and the long tail is the part most places will not deal with, so here is exactly where the lines are.
Singles, $5 and up.
A single card needs to be worth at least $5 of market value to get its own listing, which is the floor that covers what it costs to list and post one card, so everything above it is worth the handling on both ends.
Bulk lots for anything under $5.
Cards worth less than that on their own go into a bulk lot rather than being turned away. Lots run 10 to 15 cards and we build them, because that is what fits a tracked envelope, and the lot costs $2.99 rather than a fee on every card inside it.
Sealed product.
We take sealed product on the same basis as everything else, priced and paid through the same bands, worked out on what it actually sells for.
Graded slabs.
Slabs go through the same way, and the band they fall into comes from the sale price rather than from the card being graded. We list the grade and the certification number exactly as the grading company recorded them, because that is their assessment to make and not ours.
What that looks like on your collection.
The split between the two is the thing people cannot picture, so put your own numbers in and see it. Nothing here is sent anywhere until you fill the form in below.
An illustration from the numbers you put in, not a quote. What a card is really worth is settled when we have it in hand and can see it, and the actual figures come back to you before anything is listed.
Put a number in and this works out how your collection would be listed.
What we would come back to you about.
If a card cannot be priced honestly or there is something about it we cannot verify, we will tell you before it goes any further rather than listing it and hoping. That is rare, and it is a conversation rather than a refusal.
Tell us what you have.
A rough idea is enough to get started, so you do not need to list every card or know what anything is worth, and we will come back to you with what we can do.
