So, what is Direct by TCGplayer? 

Direct is our consignment fulfillment service that handles every aspect of your online orders. Our team of experts take on the fulfillment, verification, shipping and customer service while you grow your sales and get paid. 

Here’s how it works: 

  1. You receive an order as you typically would on the TCGplayer Marketplace.
  2. We pull the order items from our own carefully managed inventory, securely pack and ship products to the hobbyist buyer on your behalf.
  3. We handle the entire customer experience related to your order and send you a summary of sales. 
  4. You ship the items included in the summary straight to TCGplayer’s world-class Authentication Center in Syracuse, NY to replenish our inventory. 
  5. Upon receipt, your payment is initiated.
  6. Repeat!

Our Direct program is built to save you time and resources. TCGplayer takes care of the order logistics and customer service, and you get paid in the process. Plus, our hobbyists love it! And, here’s why: 

  • Hobbyists receive all of their cards in one package; 
  • The cards are authenticated by our team of experts, including verified for condition, rarity and edition; 
  • All orders $35 or more ship for free in the U.S.; and 
  • Everything is professionally packed and arrives with a TCGplayer guarantee! 

Why sell Yu-Gi-Oh!?
The market for collectible trading cards continues to grow dramatically, with Yu-Gi-Oh! leading the pack as one of the fastest growing categories next to Magic: The Gathering and Pokémon. In fact, from January 2021 to January 2022 Yu-Gi-Oh! grew more than twice as fast as Pokémon! This is because over the past couple of years, Konami, the manufacturer and distributor of Yu-Gi-Oh!, has used new rarities and premium chase cards like Starlight Rares and Collector’s Rares, to turn the game’s collector base into more than just a history-driven market. As a result, Konami has driven increased demand for its current products, not just cards over ten years old, which collector’s typically set their eyes on. 

With a growing collector’s market, the return of live tournaments, and thousands of lapsed players coming back to the game for Konami’s official Master Duel simulator, demand for Yu-Gi-Oh! has exploded, making it a TCG well worth selling.
