About Louminatis

Who we are

Almost every collector ends up with boxes of commons, uncommons and leftovers they’ll never use. Selling them is usually a pain: local shops pay little, marketplaces aren’t worth the effort for cards worth a few cents, and most buyers won’t say what they pay until your cards are already in the mail.

Louminatis fixes that. Our prices are posted, the calculator shows your payout before you pack, and every lot is counted and verified on arrival. The playable cards go back to players, and the rest gets a second life.

We’re based in the Bay Area, California. We buy from sellers nationwide by mail, and local sellers can drop off by appointment and skip shipping.

Meet Lou

Lou Minati runs the counter. He sees every card that comes through the door, he never forgets a count, and he always pays what the menu says.

House rules

• Posted prices. You see the price before you ship, and the tally after we count.
• Fair counts. We pay the posted price and explain any changes.
• One Piece welcome. Most bulk buyers turn it away. We don’t.
• Respect for the cards. Your bulk goes back to players, not into the trash.
