Never fire-sell a card you love.
Nexus helps you sell graded cards for close to what they’re worth. You pick your lowest price. Nothing sells without your yes.
Starting with graded Pokémon and One Piece cards. Today our team sells cards by hand for a small group. Card records start Oct 7. Prices from real sales start Oct 21.

The problem
Say your card is worth $5,000. A dealer offers $4,000.
In our experience, dealers at card shows often pay about 75 to 85% of what a card is worth. They have to make money too.
A collector would pay more, but finding one takes time. Selling online means listing, shipping and haggling with strangers. Nexus does that work for you, and you stay in charge.

Card records Coming Oct 7
Every card gets a record that follows it.
From Oct 7, every card we check in gets a record. We write down what we see: photos, the weight and its sealed bag number. We note where the card is and when.
Buyers can see what we checked, so they don’t have to guess. When your card sells, the record goes with it.
A Nexus record shows what we saw, and where the card was and when. It does not replace the grading company.

Our rules
Rules we keep on every sale.
OJ, who started Nexus, once had to sell about $100,000 of collectibles fast to keep a business going. So we built Nexus around a few simple rules.
Nexus · Our rulesFor every sale
Nothing sells without your yes.
You set your lowest price. You make the final call.
You see every fee.
Before you agree, you see the price, our fee and what you keep.
The buyer pays first. Coming Oct 21
A payment partner holds the money until your card checks out.
No sale, no fee.
If your card doesn’t sell, you pay nothing. You get your card back.
No pressure.
No countdowns. No “only 2 left.” Sell when it’s right for you, or don’t.
No shares. No bets.
We don’t sell pieces of cards or bets on prices. Just fair sales.
Where this is going
What’s coming, and where it leads.
We’d rather show you dates than big promises. Solid dots are ready or dated. Dashed ones are plans we haven’t built yet.
Plan as of Sep 27, 2026. If a date moves, we’ll update this page.

Your rulesFuture plan
Today, we follow our rules. Someday, Higsby could follow yours.
- “Show me offers over $1,200 for my extra copies.”
- “Never sell my PSA 10 alt art.”
- “Ask me before any sale.” Always on. Higsby never sells on its own.
Maybe someday: borrow against a card instead of selling it. We don’t offer loans to collectors today. If we ever do, it will only be through licensed lending partners.
