House rules
Terms
Scoreloot is a marketplace. We host listings and take a cut when a lot sells. We are not the seller, we do not grade cards, and we do not authenticate memorabilia. The seller on the lot is the one you are buying from.
What you can list
Sports memorabilia, trading cards, and collectibles. Photos must be of the actual item in your hands. Event tickets are not for sale here.
What you cannot list
- Replicas, reprints, or counterfeits sold as authentic
- Stolen goods, or items you do not own
- Event tickets
- Anything illegal to sell in the United States
Buying
You must be 18 or older to pay. The listed price is what you pay. You pay Scoreloot. We hold the funds until the lot is delivered and 3 days pass with no open issue. Then the seller is paid the sale price minus 7% and processing (2.9% + $0.30). The seller ships to the address you gave.
Selling
Collectors and shops both sell. You do not need a company. Listing is free. When it sells, Scoreloot takes 7% plus card processing. You ship within three business days of payment, using the packing slip. Seller terms.
Certs
A cert number on a listing opens the issuing house’s lookup. A real number on a fake sticker is still a fake. Compare photos to the official record.
Accounts
You must be 13 or older. You pick a username and confirm your date of birth. That handle is how you buy and sell. Member accounts cannot change site settings, fees, or house rules.
Age to pay or sell
You must be 18 or older to pay with a card, list a lot, or receive a payout. Ages 13–17 can have an account, browse, watch lots, and use a Binder. They cannot check out.
First purchases
New cards are capped at $2,500 until a lot is delivered with no issues. After that the cap lifts in steps. We ask the bank for 3-D Secure on those first charges so the cardholder has to approve the payment.
Payouts
Before a lot can sell, the seller sets up payouts with the card processor. The processor verifies the seller. Scoreloot does not take a photo of your ID. You pay Scoreloot. We hold the funds until the lot is delivered and 3 days pass with no open issue. Then the seller is paid the sale price minus 7% and processing (2.9% + $0.30). Shipping charged to the buyer is paid to the seller in full.
High-volume sellers
If you hit 200 sales of new or unused lots and $5,000 in a rolling year, US marketplace rules require a legal name, working phone and email, tax ID last four, and a payout account. You have 10 days. Selling pauses until the file is in. Over $20,000, city and contact show on the lot. We recertify at least once a year.
