Why trade instead of sell

	Cash	Trade credit
Rate	Starting at 70%	Starting at 80%
Use it on	Anything	Everything we sell, including pre-orders and livestream breaks
Expires	—	Never

Example: a card worth $100 would typically get an offer starting at $70 in cash or $80 in trade credit. In-demand, high-value cards can earn more, and lower-demand or heavily played cards may come in under that.

Want some of both? Split deals are welcome. Take part of your offer in cash and the rest as trade credit.
