Sports Card Consignment

 

Thoughtful consignment, designed to get you the best practical outcome.

​

My role is simple: to get the most value possible for your card collection, using experience, judgment, and realistic market placement — not shortcuts or volume-based listing.

​

Collections are reviewed as a whole. Final tier placement is determined after review, based on what produces the best overall result.

​

I provide sports card consignment services for graded and raw cards, using eBay listings, tiered pricing, and careful preparation to maximize returns.

How Material Is Handled

Not every collection should be treated the same way.

To keep outcomes fair and efficient, each submission is placed into one of the following tiers.

​

Tier 1 — Standard Consignment

​​

Individual cards or small, clean groups

​

Used when a submission can be listed efficiently with minimal preparation and benefits from individual attention.

​

Sliding Fee Structure

​

• Under $20 — $7.50 flat

• $20–$49.99 — 25% (minimum $9)

• $50–$99.99 — 20%

• $100–$249.99 — 15%

• $250–$499.99 — 12%

• $500+ — 10%

​​

Graded cards (PSA, SGC, CGC, BGS) typically fall into this tier.

​

Tier 2 — Standard Bulk Consignment

​

Additional preparation required

​

Used when a submission benefits from additional sorting, grouping, and preparation because that extra work improves sale quality and overall return.

​

Typical examples include:

• Complete or near-complete card sets

• Grouped cards that require sorting or organization before listing
   

Fees are assessed using the Tier 1 structure or a time-based handling fee, whichever is greater.

​​

Handling reference (when applicable):

​

• First 30 minutes: $18

• Each additional 15 minutes: $9

 

Tier 3 — Bulk Express (Quick Liquidation)

​

Used when a submission consists primarily of lower-value cards where full preparation would reduce net proceeds. Listings are streamlined to save time and cost while still pricing the material responsibly to ensure the customer makes money.

​

Typical examples include:

• Large groups of baseball commons from the 1970s

• Bulk material where individual listing would not be practical

 

Fee:
40% of final sale price, with a $20 minimum per lot.

 ​

Tier 4 — Purchase Offer or Return 

​

Used when a submission is not well-suited for consignment and a purchase offer or return provides a cleaner outcome.

Frequently Asked Questions

​

Do you buy items outright or only offer consignment?

Both options are available. Some material is best handled through consignment, while other items may be purchased outright. The appropriate approach depends on the type of material, value, and overall goals, and is discussed after review.

 

What types of sports cards do you accept?

I accept graded and raw sports cards, including baseball, football, basketball, and hockey cards. Collections are reviewed as a whole to determine the best consignment approach.

​

Do you accept PSA, SGC, CGC, or BGS graded cards?

Yes. Graded cards from PSA, SGC, CGC, and BGS are commonly consigned and typically fall under the standard consignment tier.​
 

How are consignments typically reviewed?

​

 

​

How do you decide which tier my cards go into?

Tier placement is determined after review and is based on card value, condition, quantity, and the amount of preparation required to achieve the best overall result.

​

Do you handle sports memorabilia such as tickets, programs, or autographs?

Select vintage sports memorabilia may be considered, including items such as tickets, programs, yearbooks, pins, World Series material, and autographs with PSA/DNA or JSA authentication. Modern memorabilia is reviewed selectively, with an emphasis on historically significant players or material.

​

Do you accept non-sports cards, unopened product, or complete sets?

Yes. Non-sports cards are accepted and may be purchased outright or handled through consignment, depending on the material. Unopened product and complete or near-complete sets may also be considered based on content and condition.

​

When do I get paid?

Payments are issued at the beginning of each month for sales completed during the prior period.
