1. Apply as a seller

A Misprint account alone doesn't let you list. You have to apply for seller access from the "Become a Seller" page and accept Misprint's terms. Approval is manual and, per Misprint's own help pages, typically takes 1–2 business days, closer to a marketplace with actual vetting than an app that opens listings to anyone instantly.

2. List the card

For a graded card, Misprint's scanner can pull the listing straight from a PSA-graded card. Otherwise, you select the card from Misprint's catalog, specify the exact condition or grade, add clear photos from multiple angles, and set your ask price. There's no listing fee either way.

3. Get matched on the bid/ask

Misprint runs on a bid/ask model instead of a fixed "buy it now" price: buyers place bids at or below your ask, and a sale happens automatically the moment a bid reaches your number. That's the same real-time pricing mechanic behind Misprint's "Robinhood for Pokémon cards" pitch, and it means your card can sell without you doing anything once it's listed at a price a buyer is willing to meet.

4. Ship within 2 business days

Once a sale is matched, the clock starts. Misprint requires tracking uploaded within 2 business days, sends an enforcement notice if it isn't there by day 2, and automatically refunds the buyer if tracking still isn't uploaded by day 4. That's a real deadline, not a suggestion, so don't list a card you can't get to a mailbox that week.

5. Get paid

Funds move through Stripe Connect and release after delivery is confirmed. Misprint takes a 7% platform commission plus roughly 3% + $0.30 in payment processing, landing around 10% + $0.30 combined, with shipping deducted separately. See the full breakdown in our Misprint seller fees explained.

When we ran this process ourselves, it matched this description exactly, no missed shipping deadline, no dispute, and the payout landed at what the fee math predicted.

How this compares to listing on eBay

If you already run the scan → review → list → ship workflow we use for our own eBay store, the shape is familiar: identify the card, confirm condition, list, ship, get paid. The two differences that actually change your process are the bid/ask model instead of a fixed price, and Misprint's hard 2-business-day shipping deadline, which is stricter than eBay's handling-time settings.
