How to sell MTG cards on HiMarket

List your cards for free, deliver after they sell, and get paid once staff verify them. The only fee is HK$3 + 4% of the sale price.

Last updated: 2026-10-12

Selling on HiMarket is sell first, deliver later: you list cards you own at home, and only bring them in after someone buys. Listing is free — the only charge is a HK$3 + 4% transaction fee when a card actually sells (playsets add HK$1 per extra card — see the fee FAQ below). Sitting on a whole binder or box? See Sell your MTG collection in Hong Kong for how HiMarket compares with shop buy-ins, overseas buylists and Carousell.

Step 1 — List your card

Open the card page, pick the exact printing, and click "Add this version to sell list". Set the language, condition, finish and your price (HK$8–99,999) — the listing is live and visible to buyers immediately. A live ratio chip shows how your price compares to the US market reference while you type.

Grade honestly. Cards are checked against your stated condition at drop-off; overgraded cards can be rejected. HiMarket accepts NM, SP and MP only — see the condition guide. When in doubt, grade down.

You can list up to 100 active items at a time, pause listings without losing the price, and bulk-edit prices or export/import your whole sell list as CSV from My Listings.

Step 2 — Wait for the sale

You'll get a notification the moment someone buys your card. Keep a small credit balance so your listings stay active — the system hides listings whose transaction fee you couldn't cover; see inactive listings.

Step 3 — Deliver within 7 days

Bring the card to HiMarket (Wanchai), Basic Land (Mong Kok) or Basic Land (Wan Chai) — or mail it to us — within 7 days of the sale. For Basic Land drop-offs and mailed packages, snap a photo and send it to us on WhatsApp so we can track it.

Step 4 — Get paid

Our staff verify the card matches your listing, then your proceeds (sale price minus the HK$3 + 4% fee) land as store credits. Example: sell at HK$1,000 → fee HK$43 → you receive HK$957.

Spend the credits on cards, or withdraw to FPS (6% fee).

Faster ways to sell

  • Sell to a buylist — if someone already posted a buy offer for your card, accept it with one tap and skip the wait; see How to use the buylist.
  • Resell from My Cards — cards already stored at HiMarket sell with instant payment and no delivery at all; see Reselling from My Cards.
  • Consign your cards — leave your MTG singles with us in advance: they sell as In Stock, skip the 7-day delivery and the listing cap, and cost the same fee; see Consignment.

Common questions

What fees do sellers pay?

  • Free to create. Free to cancel.
  • Transaction fee: HK$3 + 4% of the sale price, charged only when the card sells.
  • Playset listings (identical cards sold together as one item — 4 for MTG, 3 for Riftbound) pay HK$3 + HK$1 per extra card + 4% of the total — HK$6 + 4% for an MTG set of 4 (instead of HK$12 + 4% as four singles), HK$5 + 4% for a Riftbound set of 3. Great for cheap cards. Minimum playset price: HK$14 (MTG) / HK$12 (Riftbound), so you always keep at least half.
  • Each account can have up to 100 active sell listings at a time (paused listings count; a playset uses 1 slot).

Example: a card sells for HK$1,000 → the fee is HK$3 + HK$40 = HK$43, and you receive HK$957 in store credits after verification. Withdrawing credits later carries a separate 6% fee — see Store credits, top-ups and withdrawals.

What happens if I miss the 7-day delivery deadline?

The order is cancelled and the buyer is refunded in full. Your transaction fee is forfeited (on a Sell Now sale to a buy offer, your commitment deposit is forfeited instead) — so only list cards you can actually deliver. Repeated no-shows can restrict your account.
