What Is MySlabs?

MySlabs restricts its marketplace to graded cards only, which means every listing already has a third-party grade attached instead of relying on seller photos and a raw description. Sellers create their own listings and ship sold cards directly to the buyer, the same peer-to-peer flow as selling on eBay — MySlabs never takes physical custody of the card the way COMC does.

• Grade required to list— a card has to already carry a grade from a recognized company (PSA, BGS, SGC, CGC, and similar) before it can go up for sale; there's no path for listing raw or ungraded cards on the platform.
• Cert number lookup— listings are built around the slab's certification number, which lets a listing pull in the grading company's official record for that card instead of the seller having to describe the grade by hand.
• Fixed-price and offer-based selling— sellers set an asking price and buyers can purchase outright or send offers, closer to a fixed-price storefront than a live auction format.
• Seller ships directly— once a card sells, the seller packages and ships it straight to the buyer, so turnaround time depends on the individual seller rather than a shared warehouse queue.

MySlabs charges sellers a percentage-based commission when a listing sells, similar in structure to eBay's final value fee, rather than COMC-style processing fees charged up front on submission. Because MySlabs never warehouses cards, there's no ongoing storage fee to worry about — the cost only shows up when a sale actually happens. Confirm current commission rates directly on MySlabs before listing, since fee structures change over time.

• vs. eBay— both are peer-to-peer marketplaces where the seller ships directly to the buyer, but eBay allows any category of item including raw cards, boxes, and non-card collectibles. MySlabs' graded-only rule means every browse session is already narrowed to slabs, without needing to filter out raw listings, reprints, or unrelated merchandise.
• vs. COMC — COMC takes physical custody of cards in a warehouse and a sale can just change ownership inside COMC's system without the card moving. MySlabs never holds inventory; every sale ships from the individual seller, so there's no consolidated “mail day” and no vault to leave a card sitting in.
• vs. Fanatics Collect — Fanatics Collect runs timed auctions and a separate Buy Now marketplace with consignor vetting on higher-value pieces. MySlabs is a straightforward listings marketplace without an auction format or a consignment review step — any seller can list a graded card directly.
• Graded-only vs. mixed inventory— the core distinction from every marketplace above is scope: MySlabs only exists for slabs, which makes it a narrower but more targeted stop for buyers specifically hunting graded cards rather than a general collectibles storefront.
