Selling questions
How do you value a retro game collection?
We price against recent completed sales for the same condition and completeness, then factor in whether the item is loose, complete in box, or sealed. You see the comparables we used.
Do you buy ungraded Pokémon cards?
Yes. We buy raw vintage and modern cards, and we can also grade-prep strong candidates and consign them after they come back from PSA, CGC, or BGS.
Will you buy a broken console?
Often, yes. Non-working retro hardware still has value for parts, shells, and restoration projects — tell us the fault and we'll quote it honestly.
Cash offer or consignment — which pays more?
Cash is immediate and simple. Consignment usually nets more on high-value graded slabs and rare imports because the item sells at full market price and you keep the larger share.
