Question 1

How does consignment work?

Accepted Answer

You share photos or details of your collection, we provide a free evaluation, and — if it's a good fit — we build a custom selling strategy tailored to your goals, timeline, and the specific cards in your collection.

Question 2

Should I grade my cards?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes, but not always. Grading has real costs and real risk. We review your collection and recommend grading only where it will meaningfully increase your net return.

Question 3

How long does selling take?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the strategy. Private sales of exceptional pieces can close in days; broader collections sold through auction typically take four to twelve weeks to maximize competitive bidding.

Question 4

How are collections protected?

Accepted Answer

Every card is insured in transit and storage. High-value pieces are shipped with signature confirmation and full tracking, and we document condition before and after handling.

Question 5

How do payments work?

Accepted Answer

Payments are issued promptly upon sale via secure bank transfer, with full documentation for every transaction. There are no surprise deductions — our commission structure is agreed upfront.

Question 6

Do you handle modern cards?

Accepted Answer

Yes. While our specialty and passion is vintage — pre-war, tobacco, and Hall of Fame material — we actively consign and sell elite modern rookies, autos, and low-population parallels.

Question 7

Do you travel for collections?

Accepted Answer

For significant collections, yes. We regularly travel for in-person evaluations, estate collections, and museum-quality pieces that warrant a personal visit.

Question 8

What commission do you charge?

Accepted Answer

Our commission is competitive and scales with collection size and value. We'll provide a clear, written breakdown during your free evaluation — no hidden fees, ever.
