Trade Card Game
Marketplace

TCG For Sale is the ultimate online marketplace for trading card games. Buy, sell, or auction your favorite TCGs — from Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh! to Magic: The Gathering and beyond. List for free, sell or auction for free, and keep 100% of your sale price. Connect with passionate collectors and players nationwide on a simple, secure, and community-driven platform.
 

Sellers will list their cards for sale in a for sale or auction format.  Here’s how to confidently bid or buy on the Marketplace.

1. Create a Free Marketplace Account

You must have an account to buy, bid, ask a listing question, and send messages. Registration is 100% free, requires some basic information, and requires verifying your e-mail address.

2. Do Your Due Diligence

While we aim to make your experience as safe and transparent as possible, it’s your responsibility to verify the listing details before making a purchase.

Be sure to:

• Carefully review the listing description, images, documents, videos, and other listing details.

• Ask questions using the “Questions & Answers” or “Contact Seller” features on the listing.
   

3. Payment and Shipping

• Verify accepted payment methods with the seller before placing a bid or buying now.

• Verify shipping methods with the seller before placing a bid or buying now.
   

4. Place a Bid or Buy Now

Our Marketplace is intuitive and secure:

• All purchases are binding, so only bid or buy now if you’re fully committed and have completed your due diligence.

• To keep bidding fair, any bids placed within the final 60 seconds will extend the auction by 2 minutes.

• Some listings may offer a “Make Offer” option. Submitting an offer is also binding — only make an offer if you're ready to follow through if it's accepted.

• Buyers must have a valid credit card on file to place a bid, buy now, or make an offer. Your credit card is secured by Stripe.  We never share your credit card with sellers.

• A Buyer's Fee — a percentage of the winning bid, buy now or mark an offer price — is charged to the winning bidder/buyer at the time of purchase.  The Buyer's Fee is capped at a maximum of $500 for a single listing or auction sale.

5. Winning an Auction

The highest bidder wins — simple as that.

• If the auction has a Reserve Price, your bid must meet or exceed the hidden minimum set by the seller.
• If the auction is No Reserve, the highest bid wins regardless of the amount.

Once the auction concludes, you’ll be connected directly with the seller to complete the transaction. The same process applies to for sale listings — buyers and sellers connect directly to finalize the sale. Both parties will receive each other’s contact information to arrange payment, local pickup, or shipping. Payment for the full purchase price is made directly to the seller using the payment method(s) they specified in their listing.

🕒 Buyers are expected to complete for sale and auction payments within 3 days of purchase.
