What we buy as bulk
A lot has at least 3,000 cards, counted across all languages together. The cards are unsorted and should all be Near Mint (NM) and undamaged. Holos and reverse holos count as bulk.
Several languages in one lot are fine. Each language is priced in proportion at its own price per 1,000 cards. Japanese and Korean cards share one price.
Energy cards
If your lot has less than 10% energy cards, the full price applies. With 10% or more energy cards we still buy the lot, but the price per 1,000 cards is reduced by 10% for the whole lot. This is not a rejection.
How we count
We count your lot by weight. If our count is at most 5% below the number you stated, we pay for your number. In all other cases we pay for our count, even if it is higher than your figure. This 5% rule applies to each language on its own. The final amount follows from that number and the rules on this page.
Inspection and returns
If less than 5% of the cards in a language are damaged, not Near Mint, or energy cards beyond what you stated, we accept them without any deduction.
If it is 5% or more, we deduct 10% from the amount for that language. We send you the new price with a short reason, and you can accept or decline it.
We only return cards if you decline an updated price or it expires. Then we return the cards of that language to you and pay for the return shipping, with nothing deducted from your payout.
Shipping
If the total shipment weighs more than 10 kg, we send you a prepaid label and packing instructions. If we split the shipment into several parcels, each parcel gets its own label.
If the total shipment weighs 10 kg or less, you pay for and arrange the shipping yourself. We recommend tracked, insured shipping.
Only send the bulk after you have accepted our offer.
How it works
Four steps, with no obligation for you:
- You send the form with the approximate number of cards per language.
- We reply by email within 48 hours with an offer link based on your figures. Olivier or Julian reads every enquiry personally.
- You are only bound once you accept the offer through the link and confirm the seller agreement. Send the bulk only after that.
- We count by weight, and the final amount follows our count. After inspection we pay within five business days, by bank transfer, PayPal, or another agreed method.
Individual valuable cards
If you have single cards that are worth more than bulk, the card list is the better route. There you get a separate price for every card. We do not buy cards below a €0.20 reference value individually there. This page covers bulk.
