Seller Account Tier Qualifications and Fees
Seller accounts are assigned to tier levels based on monthly sales volume and Average Lot Value (ALV). Seller tiers determine applicable commission percentages and minimum fees.
Seller Tier Qualifications
| Seller Tier | Commission Structure | Qualification Requirements |
| Bronze | 15% or $10 minimum | No minimum monthly sales requirement |
| Silver | 12.5% or $7.50 minimum | $5,000 monthly sales with $50 ALV |
| Gold | 10% or $5 minimum | $10,000 monthly sales with $50 ALV |
Understanding Average Lot Value (ALV)
ALV stands for Average Lot Value and is calculated using the average sale price of a seller’s completed lots.
Seller Fees for Items Sold Over $1,000
No Reserve Listings
Regardless of seller tier:
- Any item sold with no reserve for $1,000 or more receives a 0% seller fee
Reserve Listings
Items sold with a reserve price:
- Are subject to standard seller commission percentages based on the seller’s tier
- Do not qualify for the 0% no reserve seller fee promotion
Single Trading Card Fee Structure
No Reserve Trading Cards
Single trading cards sold with no reserve:

- Instead receive flat minimum fees based on seller tier
| Seller Tier | Minimum Fee Per Card |
| Bronze | $10 minimum |
| Silver | $7.50 minimum |
| Gold | $5 minimum |
Trading Cards Sold Over $1,000
Single trading cards that:
- Are listed with no reserve
- Sell for $1,000 or more
receive a 0% seller fee and are not charged the tier minimum fee.
Reserve Trading Cards
Trading cards sold with a reserve price:
- Are subject to standard seller commission percentages based on the seller’s account tier
