MV Guides · Buying

Looking for Australian card auctions? MVCollect is an online auction site built in Australia for trading cards and collectables. Every seller is based in Australia, prices are in Australian dollars, and you can bid from your phone or computer, with no auction room to get to.

What you can bid on

How Australian card auctions work on MV

You enter the most you're willing to pay, and the site bids for you, only going as high as it needs to. Nobody else can see your maximum.

Last-second sniping doesn't work on MV. Any bid in the final 5 minutes resets the clock to 5:00, so an auction only ends once the bidding has actually stopped. Some sellers also offer Buy It Now, and some accept offers. Our guide to how MV auctions work has the full detail.

What it costs to buy

Joining and bidding are free. Like a traditional auction house, there's a buyer's premium on top of the winning price, and it falls as the price goes up:

Sale priceBuyer's premium
Up to $2508%
$250 to $1,2507%
$1,250 to $2,5006%
$2,500 to $5,0005%
$5,000 to $7,5004%
Over $7,5003%

Postage is shown on the listing before you bid. The premium is never charged on postage.

Paying and getting your card

You pay the seller directly through PayPal Goods & Services, which comes with PayPal's own buyer protection. MV never holds your money. Cards worth $50 or more are sent tracked with their value covered, and items over $500 need a signature on delivery.

Know what a card is worth before you bid

MV's Market Value guide shows real sold prices in Australian dollars, matched to the exact card and grade. It's free, and you don't need an account. If you're new to buying online, read how to buy cards safely first.

Selling at auction

Listing is free, and you only pay when something sells. There are no MV selling fees during Launch Month (6 November to 6 December 2026). See fees, postage and getting paid.
