The terms behind the numbers
CardOutpost: fees, sellback & shipping
- Sellback & withdrawal
- Currently advertises 100% of the displayed platform FMV for eligible ordinary sellbacks. It is not a refund of pack cost; reward-card proceeds can remain nonwithdrawable.
- Fees
- Buybacks currently advertise no handling deduction. Shipping sources conflict: the FAQ gives flat fees and a case charge, while the shipping policy gives variable pricing. Deposit and withdrawal minima depend on the payment flow; imports are additional.
- Physical delivery
- Delivery is documented for eligible items to 32 destinations. Exact pictured or submitted graded copies are not guaranteed; fulfilment can use an equivalent card and grade.
- Availability
- 32 physical shipping destinations are listed. Pack access is restricted to eligible jurisdictions and adults; the complete access exclusion list was not established.
Arena Club: fees, sellback & shipping
- Sellback & withdrawal
- Official support describes an offer based on Arena Club’s estimated value minus a 10% app fee. Each offer displays its own expiry; a universal 24-hour window is not guaranteed.
- Fees
- The standard offer deducts 10% from Arena Club’s estimated card value. Slab Safe costs 10% of the base pack price and sets an offer floor at 80% of that base price. Retrieval costs are additional.
- Physical delivery
- Request retrieval from the vault; delivery, insurance and customs depend on destination.
- Availability
- International retrieval via FedEx/DHL coverage, with sanctions, accessibility and temporary exclusions. Destination policy updated Aug 20 2026; confirm before purchase.
Compare the outcome, not just the opening
The best comparison starts with what you want to keep. A physical card for your binder, a graded slab in a vault and a digital game item are different products, even when the opening animation feels similar.
Read each platform’s source-linked review before committing. Product-specific terms take priority over a broad comparison, especially where a platform offers several pack formats.
