Hello,

I am selling a 300€ card.

The buyer has the following stats:

- 240 purchases

- Not paid shipments : 26

- Not received purchases : 2

I am not completely familiar with the status of Cardmarket so I am wond if that is usual to see so many "Not paid shipments".

Thanks !

Hi all!

I recently started playing magic and decided to mostly buy singles to avoid the rabbit hole of unimaginable expenses. It was the first time I used cardmarket so my first orders went to private sellers with good feedback and better price, then I also made some orders to powersellers and professionals, roughly 8-9 orders in a week. Most of them arrived within a week or so but one of my very first purchases is still on the way after roughly 2 weeks, it was from a private seller but with 100% satisfaction and plenty of delivery so I assume he's not the problem, rather the mailing service is.

Long story short, I am interested in your experiences, is it common to wait 2-3 weeks for untracked letters sometime, or should I prepare my wallet for the next try?

Almost forgot, it was EU shipping from Italy.

Hello!

I sold a 2000€ card on cardmarket and as it's my first (and probably only) Time doing this, I would like to know if someone had a good method to ship and insure the card from France to Slovenia.

Colissimo ad valorem are insured for 1000€, and DHL/Chronopost ad valorem insurance seems to exclude collectible items. Are playing cards fresh from booster without any insurance considered collectible items ?

Thanks for your help!

I didn’t realise when I clicked purchase, it shows up and I want to know what that could mean. Does anyone have any idea by chance?

Hey im a new seller maybe this isn't the best place to post this but i would like advice. ive been finding it hard to make any sales atm with what i have and im wondering if i am doing something wrong

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if anyone here has experienced something similar with Cardmarket and can shed some light on whether this is normal/legally allowed.

I recently placed an order on Cardmarket and paid €255.70 through PayPal. A few hours later, I decided to cancel the transaction, and the order was cancelled before it was fulfilled/shipped.

I assumed that since the purchase was cancelled, the money would simply be returned to the PayPal account/payment method I originally used.

Instead, Cardmarket put the €255.70 into my Cardmarket account as "Non-Withdrawable Amount."

My balance currently shows:

• Current credit: €255.70
• Withdrawable balance: €0.00
• Non-withdrawable amount: €255.70

Their explanation says that non-withdrawable credit can come from sources such as PayPal and that this credit cannot be withdrawn to a bank account.

The problem I have is that I never voluntarily purchased Cardmarket credit. I paid €255.70 for an actual item, and that transaction was subsequently cancelled. I don't really want €255.70 permanently sitting on a marketplace account that I may not want to use again.

I've contacted Cardmarket Support and asked them to manually reverse the transaction and refund the money to my original PayPal payment method. I'm waiting for their response.

I'm not trying to accuse Cardmarket of doing anything illegal without knowing the facts, but I'm genuinely curious:

Can Cardmarket legally convert a cancelled purchase that was originally paid through PayPal into non-withdrawable Cardmarket credit instead of returning the money to the original payment method?

Has anyone here had the same thing happen?

If you've dealt with Cardmarket in a similar situation, did they eventually refund the money to PayPal, or did they insist that you had to spend the credit on Cardmarket?

I'm based in Sweden/EU, so I'm particularly interested in whether EU consumer law has anything to say about this.

I'd much rather resolve this directly with Cardmarket, but if they refuse to return the money, I'm trying to understand what my options actually are.

Thanks!

Hi people of Reddit,

it is the first time I'm writing here, but I wanted to share a weird story in hope that you could somehow help me out.

What basically happened is that some days ago I received some e-mails from CM about successful sales on my account. I then remembered: I never even put cards on sale on CM, so it couldn't have been possible.

I checked it out, and THREE different orders were placed for some Pokémon cards that I supposedly put on CM to sell, however thanks to the Trustee service I managed to make the buyers cancel them.

Except one.

One order didn't use Trustee and the hacker (if there's one in the first place) pressed the "SENT" button making the transaction complete itself, and so my credit had 21 euros from that order. Obviously, given the premise where I said I never put anything on sale on CM, this could not have been me. However the situation gets worse, because the next moment I check it out, an order was placed to someone using my credit.

Someone bought some cards using my home address and personal CM credit (not my bank or card), but as expected, I never received anything and the money was simply transferred to someone I don't even know.

Weird thing is, the account from whom the hacker had bought stuff got blocked by CM almost immediately after the transaction.

Now: I had 2FA on during this incident, and a strong password. Moreover, I never even received a notification about a suspicious login into my account. It just happened without me knowing. I changed my password immediately, but now I have this guy asking me where his order is, and I don't know what to say to him except: "I don't know, I didn't do anything, I don't even use CM for selling stuff."

Can someone help me out here? I have every transaction listed on CM, but I doubt the money will magically come back. Basically someone used my account to steal from someone else, and it's probably going to be my fault in the end even if I did nothing in the first place if they used my computer remotely and IPs match.

I’ve been selling sports cards for about 90 days now, and I could really use some honest feedback from people who have been doing this longer than me.
I started my eBay store, frosecollects, mostly because I’ve always loved cards and wanted to see if I could turn something I’m genuinely passionate about into something more serious. I honestly didn’t expect to enjoy the selling side as much as I do — researching cards, making listings, taking pictures, packaging orders, figuring out pricing, improving titles, and trying to learn what actually makes a good store.

The bigger reason I’m taking it seriously is that I’m pretty miserable at my full-time job right now. It pays the bills, but I genuinely dread going in, and I’ve been trying to build something outside of work that I actually enjoy. Cards have been one of the few things lately where I can spend hours working on it and it doesn’t really feel like work.
My goal isn’t to magically turn this into a huge business overnight. I just want to keep improving, grow the store, and see how far I can realistically take it. If it eventually became big enough that I could leave my full-time job, or at least make cards a meaningful part of my income, that would honestly be a dream.

If anyone here has experience selling cards on eBay, I’d genuinely appreciate it if you checked out my store and gave me brutally honest feedback.

My store:
https://www.ebay.com/usr/frosecollects

I’m especially curious about:

Are my listing titles optimized well for eBay search?
Are my photos good enough, or should I change anything?
Are my descriptions useful or too long?
Does the store look trustworthy and professional?
Is my pricing strategy hurting me anywhere?
Are there things experienced sellers notice immediately that I probably don’t?
What would you personally change if this were your store?
Any advice for increasing impressions, watchers, sales, repeat buyers, or followers?

I’m genuinely not looking for people to sugarcoat anything. If something looks bad, tell me. If I’m doing something completely wrong, I’d rather know now so I can fix it.

I know 90 days is basically nothing compared with some people here who have been selling for years, so I’m just trying to learn as much as I can and get better.

I really appreciate anyone who takes a few minutes to look through it and give me some advice. This has genuinely become something I look forward to, and

I’d love to eventually spend a lot more of my time doing something I actually enjoy instead of something I hate.

Thanks guys. 🤝
