Terms & Conditions
Last updated September 14, 2026
1. Submitting Cards
By submitting an order, you represent that you own the cards and other items being submitted, that you have the right to sell them, and that the information provided with the submission is accurate to the best of your knowledge.
2. Quotes Are Estimates
The amount shown when you create a submission is an estimated payout based on the categories, quantities, and rates associated with that submission. The final payout is determined after the received cards are verified.
3. Submission Review
Submissions must be accepted before cards are shipped. An submitted order may be approved or rejected at our discretion based on current buying needs, processing capacity, or other operational considerations.
Do not ship cards for a rejected submission or before receiving approval and shipping instructions.
4. One Box Per Submission
Each approved submission is for one shipping package. If your cards require multiple boxes, create a separate submission for each box.
5. Shipping
Approved submissions receive a prepaid return shipping label. Wait until the label is available on your order page before shipping. Follow the packaging, carrier, and service instructions provided for that order, and use only the label associated with that submission.
Cards should be securely packed so they do not move excessively during transit. Do not place adhesive directly on cards and do not use rubber bands around cards.
6. Accepted Language And Card Condition
Pokémon submissions must contain English-language Pokémon cards. Non-English Pokémon cards are not currently accepted, are not payout-eligible, and should not be included in a Pokémon submission. This English-language restriction does not currently apply to Magic: The Gathering submissions.
I Buy Bulk TCG currently purchases eligible Pokémon cards in Near Mint condition. Magic: The Gathering cards may be Lightly Played or Near Mint. Cards outside the condition range accepted for their game may be excluded from payout.
Basic Land cards and tokens are not eligible for Magic: The Gathering payout and should not be included in the submitted card quantity. If they are received, they will be excluded when the final verified payout is calculated.
This may include cards with excessive wear, creases, bends, water damage, writing, smoke damage, strong odors, or other significant defects.
7. Verification And Adjustments
We verify the quantity, category, authenticity, and condition of submitted cards. Verified quantities may be higher or lower than the quantities originally reported.
If payout-eligible cards are found in a category that was not included in your original submission, they may be added to the final verification.
8. Unsorted Cards
The separate unsorted-card option currently applies to Pokémon submissions unless the live buylist specifically states otherwise. Magic: The Gathering currently uses one flat per-card bulk category.
Counts provided for unsorted cards are approximate. Unsorted submissions require additional processing and may receive lower processing priority.
The payout for unsorted cards is based on payout-eligible cards identified during verification, not the approximate unsorted quantity reported by the seller.
Standard Basic Energy and code cards are not eligible for payout. Eligible Holo Basic Energy is treated according to its applicable buylist category.
9. Rates
Categories claimed in an submitted order use the rate associated with that submission according to the rate-lock rules displayed when the order is created.
Eligible categories discovered during verification that were not part of the original submission may use the applicable buylist rate when they are first added during verification.
10. Final Payout
PayPal payouts are sent as payments for goods and services. Any applicable fees charged by PayPal to the recipient are the seller's responsibility and may be deducted by PayPal from the amount received. The verified payout shown by I Buy Bulk TCG is the gross amount I Buy Bulk TCG sends through PayPal before any PayPal fees. PayPal controls its own fees, policies, and account requirements, which may change independently of I Buy Bulk TCG.
Once verification is complete, the order page will display the final verified payout and, when applicable, quantity adjustments, additional cards found, and unsorted processing results.
11. Payment Information
You are responsible for providing accurate payout information, including the PayPal email requested on the submission form. Incorrect payout information may delay payment.
12. Processing Time
We generally aim to verify and pay orders within 3–7 business days after receipt. Processing times are estimates and may be longer during periods of high volume or for submissions requiring additional sorting or review.
13. Fraud And Misrepresentation
We may reject, hold, or cancel a transaction when we reasonably believe a submission involves counterfeit cards, stolen property, intentional misrepresentation, abuse of the submission process, or other suspicious activity.
14. Marketplace Purchases
These additional terms apply to Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering singles purchased through our marketplace. Orders are processed through Shopify Checkout. The price, shipping charge, tax, discount, and total confirmed at checkout govern the purchase.
We may decline or cancel an unfulfilled order if inventory is unavailable, listing or pricing information is materially incorrect, payment cannot be processed, or fraud is suspected.
15. Condition And Availability
The selected variant identifies card condition, language, and printing. Unless expressly stated, catalog images identify the card and printing but might not show the exact physical copy. Placing an item in a cart does not reserve it.
16. Retail Payment And Taxes
Shopify and the payment provider shown at checkout process retail payments. Applicable taxes are calculated and displayed at checkout.
17. Retail Shipping
Orders are generally prepared within 2–3 business days. Services, charges, and estimated delivery times appear at checkout. Estimates are not guarantees. See our Shipping Policy.
18. Returns And Cancellations
Eligible singles may be returned within 14 days after delivery in the same condition received. Customers pay return shipping unless an item was incorrect or arrived damaged. Cancellation is available until an order is packed or fulfilled.
Report damaged, incorrect, or missing items within 7 days after delivery. See our Returns & Refunds Policy.
19. Changes
These terms may be updated as our buying program changes. The terms associated with a submission are those presented when that submission is created.
20. Contact
Questions about an order may be sent to [email protected].
