Simple, published fees
No hidden charges and no surprises at checkout. Every order shows the full breakdown before the buyer pays — here's exactly how it's calculated.
Platform fee
8% of the item price + shipping
Paid by the seller out of the sale price. Buyers never pay a platform fee on top.
Authentication
2.5% of the item price (minimum $25)
Required and included on orders of $1,500+. Optional add-on below that.
Shipping protection
1% of the item price (minimum $5)
Included on shipped orders of $500+. Additional shipping protection, not insurance.
Signature confirmation
Included
Required on shipped orders of $500+ at no extra charge.

Seller proceeds stay pending during delivery and the inspection period — a payment hold, not escrow. New sellers may have a 10% reserve held temporarily against claims; the reserve terms are always shown before the seller's first sale. Sales tax is not currently calculated; any required taxes are the responsibility of the parties.
