Sell Your Cards Through Goldin Auctions

As an exclusive partner of Goldin Auctions we can get your cards to auction quickly and easily. There are two routes: send eligible items straight to Goldin, or have us grade them with PSA first and forward them on.

2 Routes to auction: direct, or grade first

Two ways to sell through Goldin

Goldin Direct Auction Submission

We send your collectables, graded cards or manufacturer-sealed cards straight to Goldin for one of their scheduled auctions. Suitable for:

  • Cards already graded by PSA, BGS, SGC or CGC
  • Sealed boxes and cases of trading cards
  • Sports collectables — game-used items, authenticated photographs and tickets, trophies or medals from high-profile athletes
  • Signed memorabilia with a Certificate of Authenticity from a reputable company

PSA Grade and Submit to Goldin

We send your raw cards to PSA for grading first, then forward them directly from PSA to Goldin rather than returning them to Australia. Grading runs exactly as a normal submission — see the full PSA grading process.

This route applies to trading cards, tickets and packs only.

How it works

Follow these steps to get your cards to us, ready for sale.

  1. Get in touch

    Contact us via email, Facebook or Instagram and we'll discuss your options and answer any questions.

  2. Complete the consignment agreement

    When you're ready to proceed, fill in the online consignment agreement form.

  3. Pack and post your cards

    Pack your cards — or have your breaker pack them — and post them to the address below. We'll email you to confirm receipt once they arrive.

  4. On to Goldin

    Your cards are shipped to Goldin for listing — or to the relevant grading company first, then on to Goldin — to be auctioned and sold.

  5. You get paid in AUD

    Goldin wire-transfers the payout to us, and we pay you directly into your Australian bank account in AUD with minimal currency exchange loss, thanks to our commercial banking arrangements.

Where to send your cards

Pack your cards securely — or have your breaker pack them — and post them to us. It's your responsibility to make sure they arrive safely, so we recommend tracking and insurance.

Australia Post

Post your cards to

The Hobby Australia
PO Box 1319
Werribee Plaza
Hoppers Crossing VIC 3029

Australia Post's address autocomplete may say Werribee 3030 — that will still reach our PO Box. We'll email you to confirm receipt once your cards arrive.

Payout rates

We've secured a flat 105% on every item sold through Goldin. Your payout is based on the final auction price — the price at the end of the auction and extended bidding, excluding Goldin's 22% buyer's premium — less any grading fees and other relevant fees.

Total paid by the buyer 122% of the final bid

Final auction bid
Premium +22%

Total you receive as seller 105% of the final bid

Final auction bid
+5%
Goldin 17%
  • Final auction bid
  • Buyer's premium (+22%)
  • Your 5% share of the buyer's premium
  • Goldin's fees (17%)

Notice the darker green segment sits past the end of the final auction bid above it — that overlap into the buyer's premium is what takes your payout to 105%. Goldin keeps the remaining 17%.

Grading fees and any other agreed fees are deducted from your payout.
