What I buy and sell

I sell vintage and modern singles, from old-border staples to current chase cards. Every card is verified against my standard before it’s listed, and the condition I state is the condition you get. Slabs are listed by their grade. Prices track the market and are repriced regularly, so you can check them yourself.

I also buy collections, bulk, and single high-value cards.

I buy Magic cards across Central Texas

I’m based in Leander, TX, just north of Austin. I’ll look at collections, bulk, and single high-value cards. Austin, San Antonio, Houston, and Dallas are all day trips, and I’ll come to you for the right collection.

Send me a rough idea of what you’ve got: sets if you know them, about when you bought them, sorted or not, and photos if you have any. I’ll reply with what it’s worth and what I can pay, including when the number is lower than you hoped. What you do with that is up to you.

Email me about your collection
