Consignment by JustEncased

JustEncased Representation Services is built around a simple belief: not every trading card reaches its full potential through the same sales channel.

Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all consignment service, we take the time to understand your objectives before recommending the representation strategy most likely to achieve them.

Whether you are consigning a single grail or an entire collection, every item entrusted to us is professionally represented from receipt through to final payout.


Why JustEncased?

Collectors trust us because representation is more than simply listing cards online.

Every collection benefits from:

✔ Strategy-first recommendations

✔ Multiple professional sale methods

✔ Access to one of Australia's leading eBay Live sellers

✔ Official PSA & CGC Authorised Dealer

✔ Professional listing preparation

✔ Transparent fee schedules

✔ Comprehensive inventory management

✔ Secure handling and tracking

✔ Ongoing communication throughout the representation journey


Our Representation Philosophy

Every collection is different.

Every collector has different priorities.

Some prioritise maximum realised value.

Some prioritise speed.

Some seek certainty.

Others simply want professional representation without the time commitment of selling themselves.

Our role is not to decide what success looks like.

Our role is to recommend and execute the strategy most likely to achieve your objective.

The JustEncased Representation Status Program

We believe loyalty should be recognised.

The JustEncased Representation Status Program has been developed to acknowledge long-term representation relationships and reward consignors who continue to entrust their collections to us.

Unlike traditional loyalty programs, Representation Status is not based on a single transaction.

It reflects your ongoing relationship with JustEncased and considers factors such as your representation history, continued engagement with our services and long-term partnership with the business.

As your Representation Status grows, you may become eligible for enhanced benefits, including improved representation terms, priority service and access to future initiatives offered exclusively to our representation partners.

The program has been designed to evolve alongside our business, ensuring that our most loyal consignors continue to share in our long-term success.


Professional Representation, Not Just Sales

Representation extends well beyond creating an online listing.

Every item entrusted to JustEncased becomes part of a professionally managed representation process designed to provide confidence, transparency and accountability from beginning to end.

From inventory receipt and secure storage through to listing, sale and payout, every stage is carefully managed using our internal Representation Management System (JERMS), providing structured workflows and comprehensive record keeping throughout the life of every consignment.


 

A Long-Term Representation Partner

Many of our consignors choose to work with us repeatedly as their collections evolve.

Our objective is not simply to sell your cards.

It's to become your long-term representation partner.

As your collection grows, the market changes and your collecting goals evolve, our role is to continue providing informed strategy, professional representation and a level of service that rewards the confidence you place in JustEncased.

Because representation is not measured by a single sale.

It is measured by the relationship we build over time.

FAQ

How do I get started?

Simply complete our online Consignment Enquiry Form or contact our team. We'll discuss your collection, your goals and recommend the most appropriate Sale Strategy before you send anything to us.

What do you accept for consignment?

We generally accept most PSA 9/10, CGC 10 and BGS 10 graded TCG cards. Graded items of a lower grade will be accepted on a case-by-case basis.

Sealed product, raw cards, and graded cards are currently not accepted.

How are your fees calculated?

Our representation fees vary depending on the Sale Strategy selected and the final sale price.

A complete breakdown is available in our Representation Fee Schedule and will always be discussed before representation begins.

There are no hidden commissions or surprise deductions.

Why do different Sale Strategies have different fees?

Each Sale Strategy requires a different level of preparation, ongoing management, marketplace costs and commercial risk.

Our fee structure reflects the professional representation required for each strategy rather than simply the marketplace used.

What if my card doesn't sell?

Not every card sells immediately.

We'll periodically review your representation and, where appropriate, recommend pricing adjustments or an alternative Sale Strategy.

Professional representation continues after listing.

How long will my cards take to sell?

There is no universal answer.

Every strategy has different expected timeframes, and market conditions change constantly.

Rather than promising unrealistic timelines, we recommend the strategy most likely to achieve your stated objectives.

What happens if I change my mind?

You remain the owner of your collection throughout the representation process. If you decide to withdraw items before they are sold, we'll work with you in accordance with our Withdrawal Policy.

Do you guarantee sale prices?

No.

No professional representative can guarantee market outcomes.

What we do guarantee is that every recommendation and every decision will be guided by thoughtful professional judgement and transparent communication.

Why do you offer four different Sale Strategies?

Because every collector has different priorities.

Some collectors want to maximise value.

Some want quick liquidity.

Some prefer reduced downside risk.

Rather than forcing every collection into the same sales channel, we recommend the strategy that best aligns with your Success Objectives.

How do you decide which strategy to recommend?

Our recommendations are based on three things:

  • Current market evidence
  • Your individual goals
  • Professional judgement developed through years of experience

We call this the Recommendation Triangle.

Can different cards in my collection use different Sale Strategies?

Yes.

One of the advantages of our representation model is that different cards within the same collection can be represented through different Sale Strategies if doing so better aligns with your objectives.

Can I choose my own Sale Strategy?

Absolutely.

Our role is to recommend.

The final decision always remains yours.

We'll explain the advantages and disadvantages of each strategy so you can make an informed decision.

Can my strategy change later?

Yes.

Markets change.

Your priorities may also change.

Where appropriate, we'll recommend changing strategies if we believe another approach is now more likely to achieve your objectives.

Why don't you simply recommend the strategy that produces the highest sale price?

Because the highest sale price isn't always the collector's definition of success.

Some collectors prioritise speed.

Some value certainty.

Others simply want the process managed professionally.

Our recommendations are based on your objectives—not ours.

Why don't you always recommend Buy It Now?

While Buy It Now may achieve higher realised prices in some situations, it can also require considerably more time.

If your priority is liquidity, another Sale Strategy may better achieve your objectives.

What if I don't know which strategy is right for me?

That's completely normal.

In fact, many collectors come to us because they're unsure which approach best suits their collection.

You don't need to know the answer before contacting us.

That's our role.

We'll take the time to understand your collection, discuss your priorities and recommend the Sale Strategy we believe is most likely to achieve your objectives.

After all...

Every Card Deserves a Strategy.

What is the Representation Status Program?

The Representation Status Program recognises long-term relationships with JustEncased.

Rather than focusing solely on individual consignments, the program acknowledges ongoing engagement with our Representation Services. Eligible consignors may receive enhanced representation benefits over time, including improved representation terms and access to future initiatives.

Representation Status is continually reviewed and may evolve as our services continue to develop.

Is the Representation Status Program permanent?

The program is intended to reward long-term relationships while remaining commercially sustainable.

JustEncased may review qualification criteria, benefits and program structure from time to time to reflect changes in the market, operational requirements and future service offerings.

Any changes are designed to ensure the continued success of the Representation Services program while maintaining fairness for all consignors.
