How to Buy and Sell Trading Cards on StockX

This article is part 6 of 15 in the series: How-To

BUYING

Buying trading cards on StockX is as easy as 1, 2, 3. To break it down for you, we’re giving you the three simple steps you need to take to get the trading card you’ve been trying to get your hands on. Here’s all it is:

1. Search the trading card you’re looking to buy

  • Whether it’s an MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, or PokĂ©mon card that you’re looking for, our catalog will help you find just the one you want. Simply search key characteristics of the card and our catalog will generate the product(s) you are trying to buy. Start browsing here.

2. Place a Bid or buy at the lowest Ask

  • Once you’ve found that card you need to complete your collection, it’s time to let the money talk. Here you have two options; you can either place a Bid and hope a seller accepts your Bid or buy the card at the lowest Ask.

3. Let us do the rest

  • All trading cards that are being bought and sold on StockX are graded and verified by PSA or BGS, so you always know you’re getting the real deal. Once your transaction is complete, just sit back, relax, and know your Verified Authentic trading card is on the way!

SELLING

If you’re going to buy trading cards, you’re probably going to also sell trading cards and lucky for you, the selling part is just as easy. Here are the steps:

1. Search the trading card you’re looking to sell

  • To sell your trading card, search key characteristics of the card and our catalog will generate the product page of the card you are looking to sell. Keep in mind that all cards must be graded, PSA or BGS with the slabs in acceptable condition (no cracks, chips, or major scratches).

2. Set your Ask price or accept the highest Bid

  • When you find the card you are interested in selling, you can either set your Ask price to let buyers know the amount you are willing to sell for or accept the highest Bid that a buyer has placed.

3. Ship to StockX!

  • With each sale confirmation, you will receive a shipping label to ship your trading card to StockX. For more information on how to ship your card to StockX, please check out our Trading Card Shipping Guide. Once your trading card is verified authentic, your payout will be in motion and the trading card will be on the way to the buyer!
  • If your card is registered to your PSA inventory, please remove it prior to shipping.
