Their online sales are huge so you cannot say 30-90 days is acceptable. That is total BS.


It's perfectly acceptable, I pay you more for the same stuff than the other guys, but you give me 30-90 days to pay for it.

If you don't need the cash immediately, it's a better deal.

Seems they haven't changed their ways.

These guys are borderline criminals. They subjectively grade your cards, send you back a few (which may or may not be the ones you sent) and then charge you $40 in labor for their troubles. They just kept extra cards to cover their shipping fee, ripped me $55 on the payment and sent back 5 cards that collectively had a value of $4, and I had the pleasure of waiting nearly 10 weeks for payment. Off to the BBB website now.

What?

mtgfanatic is notorious for being one of the worst possible "dealers" you can sell your cards to. Check out the multiple threads here and on MTGS to figure out why.

I, like the poster a couple of posts above, can't imagine why people still sell these chumps anything after all this awareness. Have fun with card downgrades and taking forever to get paid.

It is because there are some people like me who is not in hurry need of money and would like to get the most money out of their cards. If you open a store and are willing to buy cards at above ebay prices, I would not mind selling you cards even if it takes 2-3 months for me to get my money.

You seem to be ignoring the other bad practices

- Wrecking you on condition and returning cards at your expense

- Sending cards back that went down within that 10 weeks of purchase due to "condition"

- "loosing shipments of cards in"

See the above poster for my thoughts on this. You will not make "above eBay profits" selling to these guys. It's pretty proven.

But please, keep selling to them.

Yes you will depending on what you sell. Yes I did not enjoy my service with them but they payed more than y'all or anyone would have payed for the cards I sold.

All cards are unlimited
1 nm savannah 115
1 nm tropical island 210
1 hp bayou 95.50
4 hp plateau 266
1 hp savannah 80.50
2 hp tropical Island 294
1 hp tundra 122.50
Total 1181.50

Now tell me anywhere I could have got those prices. The cards that were labeled HP yes they were HP and NM were NM. The didn't downgrade anything or send anything back. It just took 9 weeks for my money to come in.

The first one point rarely happens to me cause I am pretty good at understanding the condition they want my cards at.

The second point doesn't matter since I'm not in hurry need of money or trade.

The third point never happened to me.

That doesn't make them GOOD. That makes them GOOD FOR YOU. And other people who are 'meh' about their money being tied up in others' hands for 2 months.

It's still pretty damn shady and it does not make them good.

My selling experience from overseas (Germany) :

- buy prices are insane, so you have to expect some tricks from them to lower these buy prices (such as "lose" return shipments)
- They are very strict with card grading, but in most of the cases they use this as excuse to return cards they don't want anymore. Otherwise they wouldn't have returned cards that I personnaly picked out of the booster because of bad grading.
- They only sent cards they didn't want once with me. I received the returned cards within a week (which is quite fast for a shipping overseas).
- They are slow with the payment. They received my first sell order 7 weeks ago and I still haven't received any payment. However, it is mentioned in their FAQs.
- The biggest problem I have with them is the extremely slow processing time. I sent 2 orders which have been delivered more than 3 weeks ago (I have a proof of delivery through tracking numbers), they still aren't processed...
