I paid for 2 day shipping for an order on 10/14/2026, however it took until 10/21/26 for it to arrive. I don't feel it was worth the roughly $40 extra in shipping when standard shipping takes about this long. I won't bother with paying extra for expedited shipping in the future if it will end up being no quicker.

I haven’t really had any issues buying but selling to Card Kingdom has been a consistent headache. Every other sell order I’ve made this year (50%) have been marked “cancelled” for missing the two-week window for receipt, then mysteriously found a day or two after customer service has been contacted. This has happened three times in the past three months, which is way too often to be USPS’s fault, as they claim. So I’m left holding my breath that every order hasn’t been lost in transit. It truly feels like rolling the dice — I have no idea what their receiving crews are doing! As others have said, they’ll also toss out one or two VF gradings randomly on bought cards (despite there being next to no cards listed at that grade for sale on their site). So that’s sketchy too. What must also be said is the insane markup on cards, often 50% (or way more) above market value. Yes they give you more on trade in than most buyers but $3-4 markups on $10 cards is price-gouging. For example, they’re currently selling Meticulous Archives for $20.99, which is 62% above its market value of $12.90. That’s disgusting. On top of those ridiculous markups, they have the gall to charge $8 shipping on orders less than $75?! So to hit that “free shipping” amount, you’re spending a total of $20-25 over market price on your cards. You get screwed on every aspect of the sale, aside from maybe condition and selection. I would avoid Card Kingdom if there was a selling alternative. There’re no efficient ways left to offload $1 or $2 cards. But I’m done after I hit the “free shipping” total in store credit — their processing times on buys and poor customer service makes dealing with them more trouble than it’s worth. Now that they’ve been bought by those total PARASITES in private equity, their prices and service is sure to get even worse. Edit for clarity: Every “delayed” Sell Order I’ve placed has shipped within 48 hours, without tracking (because USPS is charging an arm and a leg for anything beside basic letter envelopes. It doesn’t take 3-weeks to get a letter from the East Coast to the West Coast of the U.S. Delays happen but not near that often.

I have been buying from here for both than 3 years. They have great selection and ok prices. TCGplayer is usually 10-20% cheaper but card kingdom has super fast shipping. I have ordered so many cars listed as "light play" and they come in scratched, bend and damaged condition. Support always reply by saying, we don't believe you and trust their graders but will give you a gift card to stop annoying us. I gave them another shot and bought a $50 surge foil card in "light play" condition and it came in scratched condition again. Their business would be so much better with just some quality card graders.

The card grading wait when selling cards is astonishingly slow. I will only ever go to my local game store from now on. I gave it a try to sell online ... live and learn.

Sell Order still hasnt been processed 10 DAYS after its been marked recieved. Website says 3-5 business days. Customer service just says "wait" thats all. Terrible

Pre-ordered assassins creed cards, they are showing up late enough I should have just went to the store. Not a waste though, as I now know to avoid them entirely. Thanks card kingdom!!!!!!!!

Inventory error now forced to ship a single that costs less than the delivery cost. What the hell.

They have policies in place like, "if you make an order send it to us within 7 business days," but yet take over that time period to even put in they got it. My tracking said it was there in 2 days. It took 10. In that whole time frame the card I specifically wanted went from $430 to $520. For no reason. They got more stock of it and it is $420 on TCG player. I am still waiting for my package I spend 3-4 business day shipping on and it has been about 8 days and wont show up today even though the tracking says it is "on time." I would be less upset if they had warning on their website times taking longer and stuff like that. but the lack of transparency makes me not like them. Their only redeeming quality is that you get 80% trade in value (If they even value the cards close to the general value, which is hard to find, You will lose money).
