Everything Aussie sellers
actually ask.

We pull live TCGplayer market data and recent eBay AU sold listings, convert to AUD daily using Frankfurter FX, then apply a condition multiplier. You see the same input data we do — there's no black-box markdown.

Because eBay's headline price is before fees, postage, time and risk. Once you subtract eBay's 13–15% in fees, AusPost tracked postage, the 14–30 day wait, and the chance of a chargeback, our offer typically lands in the same range — you just receive it in 24 hours.

On bulk submissions and high-value singles ($1,000+), yes — email us with photos and we'll quote manually. Standard scanner offers are non-negotiable so the system stays fair for everyone.

Send us a screenshot of a current competing offer on the same card and condition, and we'll match it where the maths works. We won't match offers that we believe rely on bait pricing.

No. We email you a pre-paid AusPost tracked label as soon as you accept the offer. Drop the parcel at any Australia Post outlet — we cover everything including signature on delivery for high-value parcels.

Penny sleeve, then top loader, then a small padded mailer with cardboard reinforcement. For slabs: bubble wrap the slab, double-wrap, then padded mailer. We've never received a card that arrived damaged with this method.

The pre-paid label includes tracked + insured cover. If a parcel goes missing, we lodge the claim and cover the agreed offer regardless of the AusPost outcome.

Yes for Melbourne sellers — we run a Saturday morning collection point in the inner north. Email us to arrange. For all other cities, the AusPost label is faster and free.

Same business day after we confirm the card on arrival. Confirmation lands within 24 hours of the parcel reaching our Melbourne address.

Direct bank transfer (PayID or BSB/account) is default. PayPal and Wise are available on request. We don't pay in cryptocurrency.

Yes — store credit on our shop earns a 10% bonus over the cash offer. Useful if you're planning to buy a display case or sealed product anyway.

No minimum. We've paid out offers as small as $8 and as large as five figures. The free postage label kicks in automatically over $100.

We use the standard TCG condition scale: Near Mint (NM), Lightly Played (LP), Moderately Played (MP), Heavily Played (HP), Damaged. We err strict — a card we'd grade NM most graders would also grade NM.

We send a counter offer reflecting the real grade. You have 72 hours to accept the counter, or decline and we ship the card back free of charge.

Yes, all four major grading companies in any grade. Graded copies typically command 1.5–3x the equivalent raw card depending on the grade and the card.

Generally no — we offer against the raw market for raw cards. If the card is a clean PSA 10 candidate it can make sense to grade first, but factor in PSA's US$25 fee plus international postage and 30–55 day turnaround.

We email you photos and our authentication notes, and ship the card back free of charge. We never destroy counterfeits without owner consent and never resell them.

Every card is checked under 10x magnification, UV light, and against a reference set. For high-value vintage we also use weight calibration. We've passed and rejected at every value tier — no card is too small or too large to authenticate properly.

No — official reprints with the appropriate set markings are genuine cards, just from a later print run. We price them against the reprint market rather than the original.

Modern English Pokémon cards in NM and LP raw, all PSA / BGS / TAG / CGC graded copies in any grade, sealed product (boxes, ETBs, packs) from any era, and most vintage holos.

Heavily played raw cards, water-damaged or creased copies, known counterfeits, and most non-English raw modern cards. Japanese vintage and high-value Japanese moderns we'll quote manually.

Yes — we offer a single bulk number on whole-collection submissions to save you scanning each card. Email a video walkthrough of the binder and we'll quote within 48 hours.

Not currently. We focus on Pokémon TCG so we can be honestly expert at one thing rather than mediocre at six. Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh and One Piece sellers will get more accurate offers from category-specific buyers.

Only at the point you accept an offer — we need a delivery confirmation address and bank details. Browsing prices is anonymous.

Yes — until the card arrives and is confirmed. Email us and we cancel the postage label, no questions asked.

Your details are used to ship, pay and (occasionally) email you about new offers if you opt in. We never sell data to third parties. See the Privacy policy for the full breakdown.

Yes — until we transfer payment. After payment is sent the sale is final, but the 72-hour counter window gives you a meaningful chance to back out if the offer revises.

Yes — see the Buyback Guarantee page. Short version: if the offer revises down on inspection, you get 72 hours to accept the new number or get your card returned free of charge.
