In short. Buyers pay no premium at eBay. Selling there costs 13.25%.
No house pays to appear here or to appear higher. What follows is what eBay publishes, or has told us directly, with the date we last checked. It is not a recommendation, and nothing here is a view on what your cards are worth. We also buy cards ourselves; that has no bearing on anything written here.
Nobody takes the collection off your hands here. You photograph, describe, price, pack and ship each card yourself.
There is no buyer's premium on eBay. No buyer's premium and no buyer fee on eBay.com. Selling fees fall on the seller. A Buyer Protection fee exists on eBay's UK, Australian, Italian and French sites only.
Know roughly what is there first — which cards matter, and which are graded. Price against what the same card at the same grade has actually sold for, not what others are asking. Insure anything valuable when you ship it, and for a card worth thousands, compare what an auction house would charge before you list.
