Selling sports cards through Goldin
Goldin is an auction house for vintage and modern cards. What it costs to consign, when you are paid, the deadlines, and who to ask for.
In short. Goldin adds a 22% buyer’s premium to the hammer price (minimum $19). The seller’s commission is not published — it is negotiated per consignment. The smallest lot it takes is $500.
No house pays to appear here or to appear higher.
What follows is what Goldin 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.

It is paid by the winning bidder, not by you — but bidders know it is coming, so it shapes what they are
willing to bid.
