We’ll try to provide detailed instructions on how you can sell your Magic the Gathering cards to us. If you still have any questions, please head on to our FAQ page, or contact us. We’re always happy to help.
If you want to sell some of your singles or full collections you will have to send us a list of the cards. We currently process lists in Comma Separated Values format (csv). To help us processing and get the right information from your file, please submit only lists generated in Moxfield or ManaBox – two of the most popular Magic the Gathering card list building sites/applications. If you have lists generated in other applications, you can try to import into Moxfield or ManaBox yourself, or let us know and we’ll see what can be done.
These lists MUST include the accurate expansion set and collector number for each card, as well as accurate card condition, and whether it’s a foil/non-foil. Be aware that cards from Promo sets are very prone to be mistaken or listed incorrectly.
When we have your list, normally within a couple of days you’ll receive an offer value. If you choose to accept it, please let us know. We’ll then give you further instructions for shipping the cards to us. Please pack the cards in the same order they are on the list (very important).
On receipt, the cards will be checked against the list and for individual condition.
You can choose to receive your payment after we have received and checked the cards, or before you send them (Paypal Goods & Services). The latter will incur a charge of 2.9% from Paypal.
We buy unsorted bulk cards (exception of basic lands and token cards). If you want to send your bulk, please use the form and let us know how many of each type do you have for sale (Mythic, Rate, Common/Uncommon). Each type has a value, as explained in our pricing guide. No list is necessary for bulk sales. Please note that we are only buying bulk cards in NM or above condition.

Shipping cards to us
Please do not send any cards to us until you have received an offer.
Package your cards carefully, using appropriate protection. We recommend shipping expensive cards sleeved and in toploaders. Inexpensive cards can be shipped non-sleeved (although sleeves still offer some protection). Hardbacked envelopes are great for small numbers of cards, while larger numbers should be shipped inside a cardboard box, preferably inside something like a deck box or similar. Make sure cards are not able to move inside the package – you can fill the box with paper or bubble wrap.
With our offer, you will also receive a shipping order, which includes your name and order number. Please print this document and include it in your envelope/box.
Choose an adequate carrier for your shipment that provides sufficient insurance. Royal Mail offers compensation between £50 (Signed for) up to £2500 (Special Delivery with increased insurance). On offers above £150 within the UK, we will cover shipping costs (with a few exceptions).
Minimum and Maximum offers
We are currently accepting offer values above £25 only (excludes bulk, which is lower). Our transaction limits are £150 per card, and £800 per offer. These values change frequently so please come back and check. If the value of your cards is not within this range, you will still get a reply from us.
Changes in offer values
Our offers are not binding until your cards are assessed by us. If the offer needs to be amended (for example, but not limited to, if the condition of the cards does not match that in the list you submitted, or due to market conditions), we will always contact you with a revised offer. It will be up to you to accept or get the cards returned to you at your expense.
