THE VAULT
We offer a great way to reduce shipping costs and/or bundle purchases over time. The Vault.
How it works
When you purchase items through our website, we offer either regular shipping options to your address or alternatively free Vault storage (no cost or shipping expense!). We store your item(s) in the interim securely, and keep them allocated to your customer account. They'll be taken off our stock availability so nobody else can purchase your item.
You can return to our site and purchase other items, then bundle shipping (or add more to the Vault) to reduce costs significantly.
You may also contact us to sell your items in the Vault at any time on consignment, great if the price has risen or you grabbed a bargain item. This way you never touch the card, never pay shipping, and we'll handle it for you. In some instances we may send you an offer for cards that are sitting in your Vault for a prolonged period of time.

Frequently asked questions
Why bother?
Sometimes you may want to purchase a card with the plan to resell when/if the card appreciates. You can use the Vault for this to then sell to other customers, or back to us. You won't lose out on paying shipping to your residence, and then to a buyer (or dealing with pickups, ebay, etc).
Some cards may be found at below market price, so it may be wise to snatch them up quickly and keep them in the vault and bundle your shipping later once you have a few more products to make the shipping worthwhile.
Why do we offer free Vault storage?
It reduces our shipping & handling expense also, as we pack less individual orders and can bundle shipments. Additionally if customers are reselling on our marketplace then we have a greater stock quantity without processing new inbound shipments from sellers or suppliers.
What are the limitations?
We unfortunately can't offer free storage forever. We do have to place a limitation on the Vault storage. At the end of every month, cards added to the vault from the previous month must be either collected/shipped or placed back into consignment for sale on our website where you will earn 86% of the sale price.
For example, if you buy a card on the 2nd of January, then on the 28th of February you must collect or sell the cards. This gives you between 1-2 months of storage at no additional cost. Some discretion is provided and times can be extended on a case by case basis.
