Selling sports memorabilia online is a popular hobby nowadays. Collectors young and old everywhere around the world are constantly looking for ways to sell the best pieces of their collections on the web. In the decades past, collectors had to be resourceful to sell their collectibles. Having connections was key, as was knowing what sells and for how much.
Today, selling sports memorabilia is made easier by the internet.
Selling sports memorabilia is much like selling (or buying) anything else. You want to find a reliable selling medium that doesn’t take too much of your earnings, is quick, and has a large enough database of potential customers. At the moment, there are a few ideas that spring to mind as to where you could sell sports memorabilia.
Currently, eBay is perhaps one of the easiest the best option for selling sports memorabilia online. eBay is an online marketplace with millions of users who check products daily, including sports memorabilia experts and those willing to buy your products. The online marketplace, eBay, has existed since 1995. While the site’s reputation was a bit dodgy at a certain moment in history, it’s a vastly reliable marketplace that vets its sellers so that you only get to buy and sell from genuine people.
Perhaps the best thing about selling your stuff on eBay is the access to thousands and potentially millions of potential buyers.
You’ll be able to list many different items on this site and potentially sell them – eBay is good for almost any sport, including baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer, racing, wrestling, and even non-sports memorabilia.
Auction houses are popular among sports memorabilia sellers. The first reason for this is that these auction houses do a lot of the work for you – particularly the top ones.
They’ll write your product descriptions, create good photos, and make your product as desirable as possible for potential sellers. In addition, auctions bring the additional thrill of selling products. They offer you the possibility of earning more than you usually would through online marketplaces or your website since auctions can sometimes get very competitive, especially if you’ve got a good product on your hands. Like with eBay, you can also expect to pay a commission with auction houses – most take between 10 and 20% of your total earnings.
You’ll have several great options to choose from if you want to sell online through auction houses.
