The rules
Terms of Service
Last updated 11 August 2026
These are the terms for using this website and for buying from or selling to us at 805 Card Co. Using the site means you accept them.
The most important thing to understand is in section 3: checking out on this site reserves cards, it does not pay for them.
1. Who you are dealing with
805 Card Co. is a sports card business operating from Fresno County, California. Contact: 805CardCo@gmail.com.
2. Listings, prices, and availability
We describe every card as accurately as we can and photograph the actual item you would receive — not a stock image. Where a card is graded, we list the certification number so you can verify it with the grading company yourself before spending anything.
Prices are in US dollars. We may change prices at any time, but a reservation already placed holds the price it was made at. Where a card is listed without a price, it is available for offers.
Occasionally a listing may contain an error. If something is listed at an obviously wrong price, we may cancel the reservation and tell you why rather than honour it.
3. Reservations, not purchases
Checking out on this site does not buy the card and does not take payment. It places a reservation and sends us your details. No card payment is collected, and we never see your card information.
Here is exactly what happens:
- The cards you reserve come off the site immediately, so nobody else can reserve them.
- The reservation is held for 24 hours. If we have not confirmed with each other in that time, it is released automatically and the cards go back on sale. Reply to your confirmation email if you need longer — that is not a problem, we just need to hear from you.
- We contact you to confirm the total and arrange payment and delivery.
- A sale is complete when payment has been received and we have confirmed it.
Adding a card to your cart does not reserve anything. If two people check out with the same card, whoever completes checkout first gets it, and the other is told immediately.
4. Payment
Payment is arranged directly with you after you reserve. We will tell you the accepted methods when we confirm your order. We do not store card numbers or bank details.
Cards remain our property until payment has cleared in full.
5. Shipping
Paid orders ship within one business day, tracked. We pack the way we would want our own cards packed — semi-rigid holder, team bag, and a bubble mailer or box depending on the order.
Orders over $250 ship signature-required and insured. We will not release a signature requirement on request, because it is what protects both of us if a parcel goes missing.
Once a parcel is with the carrier, delivery timing is out of our hands. If something is lost or damaged in transit, tell us and we will help you pursue it — including the insurance claim where the order was insured.
6. Local pickup
Pickup is free across Fresno & Clovis, arranged by email once your order is confirmed. Pickups happen in a sensible public place at a time that suits both of us.
7. Returns
If a card is not as described, you have 7 days from delivery to tell us, and we will refund you in full including what you paid for shipping. “Not as described” means the card differs from the listing — a different card, a different grade, a certification number that does not match, or damage we failed to disclose.
Buyer's remorse is different. Because card values move daily, we do not accept returns simply because you changed your mind or the market moved. If you are unsure about a card, ask us before reserving and we will send more photographs.
To return a card that was not as described:
- Email us within 7 days of delivery, with photographs.
- Wait for us to confirm before shipping anything back — we will cover return postage where the fault is ours.
- Send it back in the same condition and packaging it arrived in. A graded card must still be in its sealed case; a broken slab cannot be refunded.
Refunds are issued once the card is back with us and checked.
8. Selling your collection to us
When you send us details of a collection, we will come back with an offer, usually the same day. An offer is not binding on either of us until we have both agreed it, and it assumes the cards are as you have described and photographed them.
If the cards turn out to differ materially from what was described when we see them in person, we may revise or withdraw the offer. You are under no obligation to accept, and we will return anything you sent us at our cost if we cannot agree.
9. Reviews
Reviews left on this site come from people we have actually dealt with, through a one-time link we send after a deal closes. Quotes from our public X thread are shown with a link to the original post.
We read reviews before publishing them, and we remove spam, abuse, and anything that identifies someone without their consent. We do not edit reviews to change their meaning, and we do not remove a review simply because it is critical. If you leave a review, you confirm it reflects your genuine experience and you are happy for it to be published with the name you gave.
10. Your account
You are responsible for keeping your password to yourself and for activity under your account. Tell us if you think someone else has access to it. You can ask us to delete your account at any time — see the Privacy Policy.
11. Acceptable use
Don't use this site to break the law, place orders you have no intention of paying for, scrape or copy our listings and photographs for your own use, or interfere with how the site runs. We may refuse service or cancel reservations if you do.
The text and photographs on this site are ours. Please don't reuse our card photographs in your own listings.
12. Limits
We do our best to keep the site accurate and available, but we don't guarantee it will be uninterrupted or error-free, and card values are not something we can predict or promise anything about.
Nothing here limits your rights under consumer law that cannot be limited. Beyond those rights, our liability for any order is limited to what you paid for it.
13. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. Any dispute will be handled in the courts of Fresno County, California.
Before that, please just email us. Almost everything is sorted out faster that way, and we would rather hear a complaint than read about one.
14. Changes
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows when they last changed, and the terms in force when you placed an order are the ones that apply to it.
