ShipMyCards acts as your hands and feet in the hobby by giving you a secure U.S. address and a personal online inventory for your cards—so you can buy in the U.S., consolidate packages, store safely, and ship when you’re ready.
When you purchase cards from eBay, Whatnot, card shops, breakers, or retailers, ship them to your ShipMyCards U.S. address instead of directly to your home.
When your package arrives, we carefully receive it and upload photos of each card to your online inventory—usually within 1 business day of arrival at our Arizona facility.
From your account, you can:
We pass our shipping discounts on to collectors, so you keep more money in your pocket to spend on cards and other memorabilia.
Optional insurance: We partner with a third-party insurance provider, allowing you to insure shipments (up to $5,000) while still declaring a lower customs value—helping you manage risk without unnecessary fees.
ShipMyCards is more than a shipping address—we are a collector-focused service that helps you buy in the U.S., manage your inventory online, and decide exactly what happens next: store, consolidate, ship, grade, sell, or request additional services.
Many online sellers will not ship outside the United States—ShipMyCards is the solution. If you live outside the U.S., you can use ShipMyCards as your U.S. shipping address when shopping online.
ShipMyCards is designed to help U.S. collectors save money on purchases, keep their collection organized, and move quickly when it’s time to ship, grade, sell, or trade.
ShipMyCards makes it easier to buy from U.S. sellers, manage your collection remotely, and control when (and how) you ship everything home.
ShipMyCards uses a simple pay-for-what-you-send model: no memberships and no monthly fees. You are charged when packages arrive (incoming processing) and when you choose to ship or take action (shipping, grading submissions, etc.).
Here is a simple breakdown of the fees we charge for incoming packages:
$2 Package Processing fee + the following fees:
No Maximum fees for Oversized Items or Large Lots. Please verify fees before sending Large Items or Large lots.
$5 Package Processing fee + the following fees:
Any freebie / dummy cards will be given away if not worth the processing charge.
Since you do not buy the cards from us, we do not know what you paid for the cards. It is required that you place the outgoing customs value on the package through the shipment request if it is required for your country.
We offer storage for up to 180 days with the initial costs. Thereafter, we offer additional storage for a cost of 10% each additional 90 days.
Example:
Item #9999 was added to the inventory on 06/01/2025 with the initial cost of $1. If item is not shipped before or on 11/28/2025 (pass 180 days), additional storage fee of $0.10 (10% of initial cost) will be directly debited from the store credit for each additional 90 days.
Large items must be shipped home within 90 days.
Large Items remaining in storage after 90 days will be recharged the original incoming processing fee due to limited warehouse space. Large items cannot be held long-term. The original incoming processing fee will be recharged each additional 90 days.
Yes. While ShipMyCards specializes in trading cards, we also accept many collector-related items and memorabilia.
If an item is collector-related, it’s usually fine. If you’re unsure, please check with an admin before shipping to avoid delays.
For safety, legal, and security reasons, we cannot accept:
Restricted items may be discarded without return.
To protect collector security, we keep our warehouse location private. If a GPS tracker is found in a shipment:
This policy helps protect both collectors and our facility.
Because warehouse space is limited, large items must be shipped home within 90 days of arrival.
If a large item stays in storage longer than 90 days, the original incoming processing fee will be charged again. This helps cover additional handling/storage and keeps intake times fast for all collectors.
No. Due to the confidentiality and security protocols of our vault, we do not allow GPS trackers such as Apple AirTags or similar devices. If a tracking device arrives with your shipment, it will be taken to our sister location, Westgate Cards, the battery will be removed and air tag disposed of.

The main benefit of using the ShipMyCards Oregon address is sales tax savings. Oregon has no sales tax, while Arizona’s sales tax is 8.8%. For many eBay purchases, the tax savings can offset the $4 forwarding fee (break-even is roughly a $45 card purchase).
Use the Oregon address for eBay card purchases around $45+ (single cards or lots). This is most helpful on platforms that are required to collect state sales tax, such as eBay.
Use the Arizona address for:
All items sent to Oregon are forwarded to our Arizona facility via FedEx 2Day.
Here’s what the sales tax would be on an Arizona-taxed purchase (and what you may avoid by using Oregon for eligible eBay purchases):
(Reminder: Oregon forwarding includes a $4 forwarding fee, so the net savings depends on the purchase amount and the item/package details.)
If you buy both low-end and high-end cards on eBay, save both ShipMyCards addresses in eBay so you can pick the best option at checkout.
Larger or heavier items may have higher forwarding costs. For expensive items, the tax savings may still be worth it—please email info@shipmycards.com before sending larger items to Oregon so we can help estimate potential savings.
You can purchase ShipMyCards Store Credit using PayPal (Goods & Services or Friends & Family) or a bank transfer (Wise/Revolut). Choose the option that works best for your location and transfer amount.
Why: It keeps payments matched correctly and processed automatically.
Tip: PayPal often still applies fees, but Friends & Family is usually best for international collectors when the payment is over $100.
We also accept bank transfers—many collectors use Wise or Revolut because they often provide better exchange rates than PayPal.
ShipMyCards partners with USPS and FedEx through contracted, discounted shipping rates. These negotiated rates allow us to offer reliable service and significant shipping savings, which we pass directly on to our collectors.
Both USPS and FedEx are excellent options for domestic (U.S.) shipments, and the best choice often depends on the receiver’s address, value of package, and package size.
International options include FedEx, ePost, and ePacket. Availability depends on destination country, package size, and declared value. All shipments include tracking and our contracted rates help reduce postage.
FedEx is our most-used international option because it’s usually the best all-around choice for price, speed, and tracking—and we have strong support if anything comes up.
Why collectors choose FedEx
ePost EMS (by request): Not in the dropdown menu—request it in shipment comments. Typically 5–10 day service level and can be insured up to $5,000.
ePacket countries include: Australia, Belgium, Canada, Croatia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece, Hong Kong, Iceland, India, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, United Kingdom.

Go to your Inventory
Click Action button; from dropdown menu select “Details”
Select “+Disposition” link (found top right corner), select “Separate Lot into individual items” from Disposition dropdown menu
Separating a lot will convert the pricing from the lot fee to the individual item fee. This option works best when you need to sell or grade specific cards from a lot.
