How to buy a card from a collector

Cards are sold by collectors to each other. You add one seller listings to your cart, send the order into chat, and the deal moves in steps: the seller picks and fixes the terms, you accept, they ship, you confirm delivery. Money goes straight to the seller — the site takes no fee.

How to order

Everything happens on the site: no need to hunt for sellers in outside chats.

Find the card In the market section or in a set cardlist — each card shows listings with prices and stock.
Add listings to your cart The cart groups items by seller, so each one becomes its own order.
Check out The checkout screen shows the seller terms: minimum order, discounts and shipping options.
Send the order The order goes to the seller in chat and becomes a deal with tracked statuses.
Agree on payment Money goes to the seller directly. The deal has "paid" and "money received" marks so both sides can see where things stand.
Confirm delivery When the parcel arrives, mark it in the deal — after that you can leave a review.

The site does not process or hold payments: it is not an escrow service but a tool for a deal between people. That makes choosing a seller part of the purchase.

Deal stages

Both sides see the status, and every step sends a notification.

Status	What happens
Created	the order is with the seller; contents can still change
Picking	the seller checks the items against stock
Under review	terms are fixed: contents, discount, shipping
Accepted	the buyer agreed to the total
Being prepared	the seller confirmed the order and is packing
Shipped	the parcel has been shipped and is on its way
Received	the buyer confirmed delivery — the deal is complete

Either side can cancel before shipping. Changed your mind about the contents? The order can go back to picking without cancelling, so the seller work is not lost.

Common questions

Does the site take a fee?

No. Buyer and seller settle directly; the site tracks the deal and keeps its history.

How do I pay for an order?

You agree the method with the seller in the deal chat. The site neither processes nor holds payments.

Can I pay with WaifuCoins?

Partly, if the seller allows it. They set the rate and the share of the order coins may cover; the discount applies in whole rate steps.

How many items fit in the cart?

150 without a subscription and up to 300 with one. Items from different sellers share the cart but leave as separate orders.

What if the seller does not reply?

You can cancel before shipping. A cancelled deal may be reviewed — the review is moderated, and the silence timings are visible from the deal itself.
