By listing an item for sale or purchasing an item on the Site, you agree to be bound by all terms and conditions of this marketplace agreement.
The Site is operated by TCGplayer, Inc. (“TCGplayer”), which reserves the right to make changes to this marketplace seller agreement at any time. Changes to this marketplace seller agreement are effective when the changes are posted to the Site. Continuing to sell items in our marketplace will constitute your agreement to the new marketplace seller agreement. It is your responsibility to review the changes and decide if you want to continue to use our marketplace. Changes to the marketplace seller agreement may occur without notice to you.
THE MARKETPLACE
TCGplayer provides an online service that allows third party sellers to sell their products to buyers. TCGplayer does not act as the agent for either buyers or sellers. Our service provides a platform for these transactions to take place.
ACCOUNT SETUP
You must login with an existing account or complete the Site registration process to create an account with a username and password (the “Account”) in order to make full use of selling on the marketplace. You may not share your password with anyone except authorized employees (if you’re a retail business or have a Pro Seller by TCGplayer account with user roles). You must always provide accurate, current and complete information, and you must update such information in a timely manner to maintain its accuracy and completeness. Any use of the Site through your Account will be deemed as being used by you. TCGplayer is entitled to rely on the contact and other information that is supplied to us through your Account. Your Account is non-transferable and non-assignable.
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
Listing items for sale in the TCGplayer Marketplace is limited to parties that can lawfully enter into a contract. Minors are not allowed to buy or sell on our marketplace. To list items for sale you must supply your name, address, phone number, email address, bank account info for payment and agree to the marketplace agreement.
MARKETPLACE FEES
For all items sold through its marketplace, TCGplayer charges a fee based on a percentage of the sale price, as set forth under the document entitled Fees. The buyer of an item is responsible for paying this fee. This fee will be automatically added to the taxes and service if checking out with Paypal. You agree to pay the applicable fees for any amount due at the rate of 2.9% of the total gross cost.
SHIPPING EXPECTATIONS
If the buyer is requesting the items purchased be shipped they may do so at their expense during checkout. All orders should be shipped to customers within 48hrs. All orders must reach the Buyer within the quoted time frame of 6-8 business days (standard shipping). Failure to provide shipment notification within 4 days may cause your transaction and any associated payment to be canceled at our sole discretion. Please carefully read our Shipping Guidelines. As part of the Seller Agreement you are contracted to adhere to, it is your responsibility to deliver the items contained within an order to the Buyer and you waive your ability to win any disputes if the customer says the package did not arrive due to not having Delivery Confirmation or Tracking. The Seller waives the ability to win any disputes if the customer says the package did not arrive should they choose not to follow the Shipping Guidelines.
All orders made through TCGplayer.com must be shipped through the mail to buyers unless they are an In-Store Pickup order (Pro Sellers only). No attempts to meet in-person to transact should be attempted.
SELLER RESTRICTIONS
Sellers cannot list or sell items that: infringe upon intellectual property rights or are illegal, fake, counterfeit, or stolen. Items listed for sale must be listed on the correct item page and an accurate description of the products description must be given. The accounts of sellers may be limited in a matter that allows them to make a certain amount of transactions within a given time at the sole discretion of TCGplayer. Marketplace transactions must take place between two different individuals, organizations or entities. TCGplayer reserves the right to refuse service to anyone at any time for any reason.
TCGplayer determines which products to offer for sale in the marketplace. Products may be added or removed at any time without notice. Changes to the item detail pages of a product can also take place without notice. The way listings appear in the marketplace may change without notice to users of the marketplace.

This site or the seller in-charge must keep any buyer information received confidential and secure. In general, you should not share your TCGplayer login information with anyone other than authorized employees. Any employees or individuals who have access to your TCGplayer account must also keep login and buyer information secure. If you store buyer information anywhere outside of the TCGplayer Seller Portal, you must store that information securely where unauthorized individuals cannot access the information. In addition, you may not share, sell, rent, or distribute buyer information to a third party for purposes unrelated to the transaction made on the Site, including through social media platforms, such as the TCGplayer Pro Retailers Group on Facebook. You may not use buyer information except as necessary to complete the purposes for which the information was provided to you (e.g., to complete the transaction). You may not use buyer information to market to buyers, unless you obtain prior, opt-in consent from each individual buyer before doing so.

Under this law, residents of the European Union have the right to know who is collecting their personal information and for what purpose it is being used.
If you sell to individuals residing within the European Union, the law applies to you. In addition, as a TCGplayer seller, you must adhere to the GDPR regulations and follow best practices when handling a buyer’s personal information. You may receive certain information about buyers, such as names, mailing addresses, phone numbers and email addresses. It’s important that you keep this information confidential and secure.
In addition, residents in the EU have the “right to be forgotten” and we will make every attempt to comply with rules under GDPR Article 17, Paragraph 2. If we forward you a buyer’s request to be forgotten, you must comply and delete all personal information you have in your possession.
PAYMENTS
