Fees & How the Money Works

Listing an item

FREE

No fee to list in auctions or Buy Now. We are paid only when your item sells.

Seller's commission

15%

Deducted from your proceeds when your item sells — auction hammer price or Buy Now price.

Buyer's premium

15%

Added on top of the winning bid or Buy Now price and paid by the buyer at checkout. Shown as its own line item.

Optional services

At cost

Third-party authentication, grading, pro photography, shipping — only with your written approval first.

Worked example

Hammer price / Buy Now price  $1,000
Buyer pays $1,000 + $150 premium = $1,150
Seller receives $1,000 − $150 commission = $850
Sir Worthy earns $300 on the sale

When sellers get paid

Buyers pay Sir Worthy at checkout (card or Apple Pay via Stripe). Consignor funds are held separately from operating funds. Seller proceeds are released as soon as the buyer accepts the item. If a buyer refuses an item, the refund is issued only after the item is returned to the seller and the seller signs off that it came back as shipped — and if there is a shipping/insurance claim or any investigation (internal or otherwise), that must be settled before any refund is issued. Full terms are in the Terms and the Consignment Agreement shown when you list an item.
