Three month listing window
Name your price and wait for the right buyer
Your cards are listed in our established eBay store with Buy It Now, so the right buyer can pick them up any time rather than only during a single auction window.
How a Buy It Now listing runs
You set the price
You are expected to set your own Buy It Now prices when you submit items. If you would rather we priced something for you, that is £1 per item. We may suggest an auction instead if a price looks unrealistic.
Three months on the shelf
Buy It Now items stay listed for up to three months. That is a long window, and it is what lets a niche card find the one collector who wants exactly it.
Keep it listed for longer
After the initial three month listing period, you can pay £3 per item to have your item listed for a further 3 months. Useful when a card is getting watchers but has not found its buyer yet.
If it does not sell
At the end of the three months you have three choices. Relist it for another 3 months at £3 per item, move it into one of our auction blocks at no extra charge for the move, or have it returned for £3 per item plus postage and packaging.
Why Buy It Now
Control over the number
Buy It Now is a decision to hold out for your own number in exchange for waiting. If you know what your card is worth, or you want to target recent comps, this lets you do exactly that.
It suits low pop slabs, niche promos, sealed product and higher end singles with a solid comp history. These sell to one specific person, and that person may not be looking on the Sunday night an auction happens to end.
Where there are clear recent comps, Buy It Now gives simple, predictable pricing and the chance to catch a see-it-buy-it purchase from a collector who has been looking for that card for months.
Payouts are identical to the auction route, and we cover every eBay listing and final value fee ourselves. The buyer pays the postage, so it never touches your payout.
