What we buy
From a single Beta Underground Sea to a 30-year Commander collection, we buy Magic: The Gathering across every format, every era and every print run. Below is the kind of MTG we're actively quoting on right now — if your collection is mixed, send the lot in one go and we'll value it together.
Original dual lands, Mox jewels, Lotus, Time Walk, Ancestral Recall, original fetches (Mirage), Tabernacle, Bazaar of Baghdad, The Abyss, Imperial Seal — the cards that anchor every serious Vintage and Legacy collection.
Black Lotus, Mox Pearl/Sapphire/Jet/Ruby/Emerald, Time Walk, Ancestral Recall, Timetwister. Beta and Unlimited copies in any grade welcome — raw or BGS/PSA/CGC slabbed.
The vintage core. Even commons and uncommons from these sets carry meaningful value in playable condition, and we quote on single rares as readily as on full vintage collections.
Onslaught fetches, Zendikar/Khans expedition fetches, Modern Horizons reprints, Ravnica shocks — competitive Modern, Pioneer and Commander mana bases are always in demand.
Mana Crypt, Mana Vault, Jeweled Lotus, The One Ring, Sol Ring (foils + originals), Cyclonic Rift, Rhystic Study, Smothering Tithe, Mana Drain, original Allied Strongholds and Sliver Queen.
Modern Horizons mythics (Ragavan, The One Ring, Orcish Bowmasters, Force of Negation), Wrenn and Six, Liliana of the Veil, Karn Liberated, Tarmogoyf in high grade, Stoneforge Mystic.
Booster boxes, collector boosters, set boosters, draft boosters, bundle boxes, Commander precons, Secret Lairs and pre-release kits. Modern Horizons 2/3, Lord of the Rings, Double Masters, Commander Legends and original Modern/Eternal Masters carry the strongest premium.
Foil Reserved List, judge promos (Vampiric Tutor, Mana Crypt, Wasteland), DCI promos, FNM Foils, World Championship decks, Arena/Magic Premiere Shop promos, original-printing planeswalker promos.
High-grade vintage and modern slabs welcome. We pay competitively on Alpha/Beta/Unlimited rares, Modern Horizons mythics and tournament-legal art-card grades.
Loose collections, deck boxes, binders, long-box accumulations from the loft — if there's value in there we'll find it. Bulk commons/uncommons are accepted as a free add-on when bundled with a valuable singles or sealed purchase.
We also buy comic books, Pokémon cards, and Funko Pops — so if your collection is mixed, send it all and we'll value the lot in one quote.
How we value Magic cards
Every Magic card we quote on is benchmarked against three live data points: TCGplayer Market (the global price floor for high-volume singles), Cardmarket Trend (the European baseline that matters for UK sellers), and recent eBay UK sold listings (the price collectors actually paid in the last 30 days). For Reserved List and vintage cards we cross-check against the most recent PWCC, Goldin and ACE auction results too.
We then adjust for condition. A NM Beta dual is worth dramatically more than a HP one, and we'll tell you which bracket your card sits in honestly — even if that means a softer offer. We'd rather lose a deal than misrepresent a grade and have you find out later. For raw vintage rares we'll suggest grading where it would meaningfully lift the payout, and we'll do that math for you up-front.
Sealed product is weighed and inspected for tampering before the offer is finalised. The figure we agree in writing is the figure that lands in your account — no "settling-in" deductions, no "after a closer look" renegotiation, no surprise grading fees.
From box to bank transfer in days, not weeks
Four steps. No shop visits, no eBay fees, no auction-house commissions eating your payout. We come to you anywhere in the UK and pay the same day your collection arrives.
Use the form at the bottom of this page. A list, a spreadsheet, or photos of your binders or sealed product — whatever you've got. Reserved List or vintage? Photos of card faces help us quote tighter.
Within 24-48 hours you'll have a written, no-obligation offer. We'll talk you through how each major card was priced and which references we used.
If you accept, we send a fully-insured courier to your front door at a time that suits you. You don't need to print labels, queue at a post office, or pay for postage.
Once your collection lands and is checked, we pay by bank transfer on the same working day. No deductions, no hidden fees, no waiting period.
Honest scope — what we won't quote on
In the spirit of not wasting your time, here's the small list of Magic-related lots we politely pass on. None of these are deal-breakers if they're bundled with a valuable singles or sealed-product purchase — we'll happily take them off your hands as a free add-on — but we don't quote on them as standalone lots because the postage and handling outweighs the per-card value.
Frequently asked questions
The same handful of questions come up over and over again from UK Magic sellers. Here are the honest answers — the same ones we'd give over the phone.
