Inherited a Card Collection? Here’s What to Do Next.
If you’ve just inherited a collection of sports cards and aren’t sure what to do next, you’re not alone. Whether it’s a few shoeboxes in the attic or a neatly organized binder full of graded cards, many people suddenly find themselves responsible for valuable assets they know little about. That’s where we come in.
At Acquir, we specialize in helping people understand, manage, and monetize high-end sports card collections. Whether you’re looking to sell, hold, or simply figure out what you have—we’ll guide you through the process with clarity and confidence.
Step 1: Let’s Understand What You Have
The first step is simple: send us photos.
Our team starts every consultation by reviewing images of your collection. This helps us identify key cards, assess condition, determine whether grading is needed, and estimate value ranges. You don’t need to know what you’re looking at—that’s our job.
Step 2: Get a Strategy That Fits Your Goals
Once we’ve reviewed your collection, we’ll offer tailored recommendations. That might include:
- Grading high-value raw cards before selling
- Consigning cards to auction through our trusted partners
- Selling privately through our collector network
- Or even purchasing the entire collection outright
No two collections are the same—and no two clients have the same goals. Whether you want a quick sale or a strategy to maximize long-term value, we’ll build a plan around your needs.
Step 3: Let Us Handle the Logistics
Worried about shipping, insurance, or how to move a valuable collection? Don’t be.
We offer fully insured shipping, collection intake, secure storage, and white-glove handling every step of the way. If you’re dealing with a large estate or multiple family members, we can even help coordinate the process discreetly and professionally.
