Prohibited items & conduct
CARDSLAP is sports cards only, and only the real thing. This list is the whole point of the site.
Never allowed
- Counterfeit cards, counterfeit or tampered grading slabs, reused or fake cert numbers.
- Altered cards: trimmed, recolored, pressed to hide creases, re-backed, or otherwise doctored without disclosure.
- Reprints, customs, proxies or “art cards” that are not clearly labeled as such in the title.
- Non-sport cards (TCG, Pokémon, entertainment), memorabilia, sealed wax, breaks, raffles, razzes or mystery packs. Breaks arrive in a later release with their own rules.
- Stolen property, or cards you do not physically have in hand.
Conduct that gets you removed
- Moving a deal off-platform or asking for payment outside CARDSLAP.
- Fake offers, bid manipulation, or multiple accounts.
- Shipping without tracking, shipping a different card than listed, or not shipping at all.
- Harassment, threats, or abusive messages.
What we do
- Every graded PSA listing is checked against PSA’s registry when it goes live. Mismatches are held before publishing.
- Anyone can report a listing. We review every report.
- Counterfeits mean a permanent ban. Unlabeled reprints are removed on first offense and banned on repeat.
