Largely it was a lot of cards I did not care about so I'm not overly upset about it but I think I'll take my chances on the open market next time.

The process was tedious to create the two separate shipments (one for Sorted Service, one for Standard), but ultimately it was easy enough to grasp. My only real complaint was that it took almost a week between the time the shipments were received and when they were confirmed, and another 4 days until payment was released. Other than that, though, the prices were reasonable, the feedback was good, and I would use this service again.

The process took longer than I thought, but the email updates put my mind at ease.

The return on the cards where a bit lower than I originally expected and some cards in my opinion where graded harshly, however I still feel it was the most easiest way to let my cards go

This is a great service with great communication and really lets you know what’s going on every step of the way. They are very efficient and fair and the process from start to finish is quite fast.

However, after doing multiple shipments with them my only dislike is this: it seems when you have really high value cards they are downshifted in condition so it’s not so high of a cost. My last example was Urza from modern horizons. I bought a booster pack and it was my foil retro rare. I never played it, put it into a sleeve, then into a binder, and then when I decided to sell it was the first time I had done anything with it. And believe me I pack these shipments with cardboard storage boxes, bubble wrap, extra packing, because I want the best bang for my buck. And it really seems like they get downshifted a lot. Maybe I’m paranoid but when mid prices for a card show a lot higher, you tend to get your hopes up.

That being said, otherwise this service is amazing. This company is amazing and I’m glad they exist.
That’s why it only gets 4/5 stars.

Getting the hang of the process was difficult at first, but once I did, it was a wonderful experience. The process felt smooth and I appreciated the communication. My only hang up was the grading of cards sent in. I think everyone has a bias for what their cards look like, but some of the grades felt a bit harsh. That being said, the time saved by sending Card Conduit my collection instead of piecing out everything felt great.

Overall a pretty good experience. Relatively fast and easy as well.

Card Conduit generally offers a better rate than your typical LGS at what I found to be (on average) 70% of the market-predicted value of your collection (based on a follow-up assessment with a sorted selection of 100 non-bulk cards from my collection, unfortunately, I didn't take sufficient data from the sale I'm reviewing). I'd guess that CC needs to take a cut of the value on top of the normal fees to insure against untrustworthy sellers as well as natural fluctuations in the secondary market to protect themselves as a business. That being said, I remember being surprised when the report came in, that the total didn't meet my expectations. Part of this split could be attributed to strict grading, but not totally, because the variety of grades that came back were in some cases better than I had expected and in some cases much worse, so; I don't think this mixed bag of results can fully explain the deductions from my expected value (based on the regrettably vague figures I came up with at the time).

Based on my vague estimates I think I got about 75-80% value back (after a lot of rounding and a lot of fidgeting over what I would have graded my cards, compared to TCGplayer market price estimates; I placed the value of my cards at just under $1200) which would be a better rate than the one I found for the sample in the follow-up analysis. I see this loosely estimated 25% cut on top of the small and very reasonable 2% fee (for the sorted service) as a satisfactory deal.

Something I didn't know when I sent in my shipment that I have since learned from reading other customer reviews is that you can ask CC to hold your collection for review, and if you don't like their valuation, allegedly, you can get the parts of your collection back that you feel were undervalued. If true, then huge!

The process was indeed straight forward as it is marketed to be. For the most part everything went well I just wished the process to be a little bit faster. It seemed that every part of the process took exactly a week. I am definitely going to use card conduit again and would suggest it to anyone but make sure you are aware of the time needed to complete the process.

The process was very easy. You guys give great value for the cards, usually ranging from 50-90% of the price of what tcg sells cards for, sometimes even higher which is surprising.

The process was very easy. You guys give great value for the cards, usually ranging from 50-90% of the price of what tcg sells cards for, sometimes even higher which is surprising. I would have given 5 stars and deservedly so, but I had sent a foreign Aetherflux reservoir which I assumed and was told would have been worth something, I was not expecting 3 cents for it. Apart from that I haven't had any negative experiences. This is my first time selling so if there's one thing I've learned and adjusted, it's the expectations of my card conditions and how much value I'm actually getting. I looked up each card and sent them with the hopes that they were all worth over a dollar but there were several cards I didn't receive a dollar for surprisingly. But like I said this is my first time selling. I will continue to use you guys in the future and will be sending you guys more cards soon! Thanks

The overall process was great! I think one thing that happens with Magic players is that they value their cards more than they should be, so even with a promotional code, I received less for my cards than I thought was appropriate for condition.

The overall process was great! I think one thing that happens with Magic players is that they value their cards more than they should be, so even with a promotional code, I received less for my cards than I thought was appropriate for condition. The process for payment, despite sending a small shipment of 9 cards, in an organized fashion, was a bit longer than I anticipated. All that to say their fees were incredibly fair and I had an overall positive experience. I think with the cost of shipping, sending them large collections may lose quite a bit of value, but for small collections I think it's really smooth.

This is basically the same process as selling to any individual buyer like cardkingdom- at the cost of slightly more time between shipment and payment you get more money

I find that cardconduit is a great website when I want to sell cards from my collection. They are a fast easy service. They have great communication and I do like their step by step updates while they are processing. Their payout is fair and arrives in a reasonable fashion. So far they are a good company to work with and I feel they are fair.

However, I have one major complaint. When I send in high value foils and/or high value cards and let me stress to you, when I open these cards…. I have opened a booster pack and immediately put any card I know is worth money into a sleeve and then put it into a binder, I don’t even play with them…. They seem to grade it as “played” to drop the value by half. I’ve had 3 shipments now and it’s been a pattern. I had a foil Ragavan that I opened and they said it was played. Even though it hadn’t been shuffled once. So that’s my only real complaint.

All and all, cardconduit is a good company with good employees that work hard. And I appreciate that they exist and make this easier for anyone trying to sell their cards in an orderly and efficient manner.

I would recommend this service.

I liked the process much better than selling things on EBay. It was very easy to create a structured list and to send in the items. However, I had some concerns or surprises with the grading; many cards that I had bought in near-mint condition were graded at lightly-played and moderately-played condition. Overall, I will probably use the service again.

I was nervous sending so much value across country, but they were great about keeping me informed. Their bulk card policy was worded a bit weird but overall they were very transparent about everything. I'd definitely use this again.

This is a fantastic service if you had lots of mid-tier cards you'd like to unload. The fee just completely outweighs the cost of shipping to many different buylists and he headache of figuring it out. They were speedy considering just how many cards I sent in! I would have liked better explanation for the process of for the different shipment styles. I went through a ton of work organizing my list of cards for sorted, only to discover I need to send in the card in *their* order, which just added way too much work, and I downgraded to curated. Had I known ahead of time, would have done it different. If you know *exactly* how your shipment will work, this is a fantastic service
