Sorted: One card type per stack, NM and LP apart. English and Japanese together.
LP submitted separately from NM. MP / HP pay ¼ of the NM rate. Damaged cards receive no credit.
Condition-split lots take up to 7 business days.
We sample every sorted lot. More than 5% off and the lot pays one column to the left. Every lot is accepted. Monitor members never need to sort. Unsorted Cash lots: we sort them for a 10% fee. Your tier locks when you submit; Active and Monitor need Discord sign-in and are for individual collectors.
