How Do I Start Buying PSA-Graded Cards on GamerPay?

Welcome to GamerPay! In this guide, we’ll show you how to browse, select, and purchase PSA-graded cards on our marketplace. Whether you’re looking for specific cards or want to explore, we’ve made the process smooth and efficient.

1. Access the Marketplace

• After logging in, you’ll see the full range of PSA-graded cards listed for sale. You can browse through the available cards, with details like condition, grade, and seller location visible for each item.

• We partner with PSA to ensure accurate data on all PSA-graded cards.

2. Exploring Card Listings

• Cards graded before 2021 may not have a visible PSA slab image due to older data, but rest assured, they are still PSA-verified.

• You can view important details like the card’s grade, condition, and seller location — perfect for evaluating shipping costs and customs considerations.

3. Comparing Prices

• For many cards, you’ll see a comparison to eBay prices. Keep in mind, eBay prices are often from US-based sellers, which could include extra customs or shipping fees. This is meant as a guide.

4. Filtering Search Results

• If you’re searching for specific cards, use the filters on the left-hand side to narrow down by:

• Card set (e.g., Pokémon)

• Card variations

• Price range

• You can also save filters for future use, making it easier to find exactly what you’re looking for.

5. Favoriting and Saving Items

• If you’re interested in a card but not ready to purchase, you can favorite the card to save it for later viewing.

• You can also view your recently viewed cards to easily revisit them.

6. Bargaining with Sellers

• Some sellers allow bargaining, which means you can offer up to 80% of the listed price. The seller will receive your offer and decide whether to accept it.

• Requirement: To bargain you need to fully create and validate your profile by uploading ID (eg. Passport) and you need to insert funds on your wallet. Good news is that wallet trades are free and the deposit costs are only 0-2,5% depending on whether you use crypto, bank transfer or card.

7. Multi-Selecting Cards for Combined Shipping

• Want to buy multiple cards and save on shipping? By going to Shop of the Seller you can multi-select cards, add them to your cart, and pay only one shipping fee. This feature makes buying multiple items much cheaper!

8. Finalizing Your Purchase

• When you’re ready to checkout, you only need to select two things:

1. Shipping Method: Choose between standard and express shipping.

2. Payment Method: You can pay with your wallet or a credit card. Using your wallet can save on fees, and we support wallet top-ups through:

  • Credit card

  • Bank deposit

  • Cryptocurrency

9. Finalizing the trade

• Once you have paid the seller has 18 hours to accept the trade. Failure to accept will lead to the seller being banned.

• After accepting the trade the seller has 5 days to ship the item (bear in mind some sellers are shops or hobbyist, so they need time to go to the postal office).

• The sellers insert a tracking code and once shipped you can follow the parcel all the way to your door

• Finally, from the seller has posted the item you have 14 days to either accept or dispute the trade. Failure to do so will lead to you being charged and the seller paid... so stay up to speed:)

That’s all for now on the buy side! If you have any questions or need further assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team.
