How Collectible Hunger works
Two sides, one market. Hungry collectors say what they want and what they'll pay. Feeders bring it, from their own shelves or from the store nearest the collector.
Hungry collectors
- Add it to your want list. Pick it from the Collectibles Menu or describe it. Set the condition and the most you'll pay.
- Your growl is heard. Feeders see it, and so does our store scan: if a nearby store has it, local feeders are pointed there.
- Accept an offer. You pay the price, shipping if any, and a 3% fee (minimum $1.00).
- Check it when it arrives. The feeder is paid only after you've had time to confirm it's what was promised.
Feeders
- See what's growling. Real Wants, with the price each collector will pay.
- Find it. On your shelf, or at a store nearby. The Hunt list shows which stores have it in stock.
- Make an offer. At or under the collector's price, with the true condition and photos.
- Get paid in full. No listing or sale fees. Want more? Sign up for Feeder Boxes.
