Bulk rates by tier

Every tier is priced per 1,000 cards. Trade credit is the better deal — it's worth more and rolls straight into product. Cash is there if you want it, but you'll always come out ahead on trade.

Every figure is per 1,000 cards. We lead with trade because it pays you more.

We focus on playables, not bulk

Yu-Gi-Oh!, Gundam, Union Arena, Dragon Ball Super bulk carries almost no resale value, so we don't run per-1,000 tiers for it. Bring your playables in — competitive staples, chase rares, and sought-after singles — and we'll quote those on the spot for cash or trade.

The trade-up story

Bulk in. Chase cards out.

Every rate above lists a higher trade number for a reason. Take trade instead of cash and your bulk goes further — straight into singles, sealed product, or that chase card you've been after. It's the smartest way to clear out bulk and level up your collection in one trip.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I sell bulk cards near me in Austin?

Home Town Cards & Collectibles at 1514 Ed Bluestein Blvd, Suite 101, in East Austin buys bulk trading cards by the thousand. Bring your bulk in — we weigh and count it and pay cash or trade. Trade credit nets more.

How do bulk rates work?

Bulk is priced per 1,000 cards (per 1k) for commons and uncommons, with per-card rates for special rarities. Trade credit is worth more than cash and rolls straight into singles, sealed, or chase cards.

Why is trade credit worth more than cash for bulk?

Trade credit carries a higher value than the cash offer because it stays in the store. For example, roughly 10,000 Pokémon non-foil bulk in trade is about $150 toward a sealed booster box or a chase card.

Do you buy Yu-Gi-Oh! and other low-value bulk?

We're honest: Yu-Gi-Oh!, Gundam, Union Arena, and Dragon Ball Super bulk has minimal value and we pay next to nothing on it unless the cards are playable. Playable singles and staples are always wanted.
