01 / THE SERVICE

WHAT IS
CONSIGNMENT?

SELLING A DIECAST COLLECTION ISN'T EASY.

Most people don’t want to take low bulk-buy offers, and selling individually on eBay, Vinted or Facebook can be slow and exhausting.

That’s why we created the Matt’s Diecast Shop Consignment Service — a simple, transparent way to sell your models without the hassle.

01

YOU KEEP CONTROL.

You’re always in control of what you want for each item.

02

WE DO THE WORK.

High-quality photos, listings, marketing, buyer messages, customer service, packing and shipping.

03

YOU GET PAID.

You’ll receive a summary of sales and your payment at the end of each month.

02 / PRICING

HOW PRICING
WORKS.

YOU SET
THE PRICES.

You’re always in control of what you want for each item.

HONEST MARKET GUIDANCE

WE GIVE HONEST, REALISTIC GUIDANCE

As collectors ourselves, we know the market well. Many collectors naturally value their own items higher than the wider market does — it’s completely normal.

So while you’re free to choose your prices, we’ll give you guidance on where models typically sell and what buyers are realistically paying. This helps ensure your models actually move, rather than sitting unsold.

Ultimately, the final price is your decision.
START YOUR WAY
01 A SMALL BATCH
02 A TEST SELECTION
03 JUST THE ITEMS YOU’RE COMFORTABLE LETTING GO FIRST
03 / FLEXIBLE

START
SMALL.

NO NEED TO SEND EVERYTHING.

You don’t need to hand over your entire collection.

Most sellers choose to start with a small batch, a test selection, or just the items they’re comfortable letting go first.

If it sells well and you’re happy, you can send more later.

The service is fully flexible.

04 / WE HANDLE IT

WHAT WE HANDLE
FOR YOU.

Once your items arrive, we take care of everything.

This service exists to help collectors, not to churn out stock.

We put time into each listing so your models get the best chance of reaching the right buyers.

01 HIGH-QUALITY PHOTOS
02 LISTINGS ACROSS OUR PLATFORMS
03 MARKETING & PROMOTION
04 BUYER MESSAGES & CUSTOMER SERVICE
05 PACKING & SHIPPING
06 REGULAR UPDATES THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS
MINIMUM 10% COMMISSION
05 / COMMISSION & COSTS

SIMPLE.
TRANSPARENT.

MINIMUM 10% COMMISSION

Our commission starts at 10%, but can be higher depending on how generous you’re willing to be.

This simply reflects the work involved — for example:

If a £10 model sells, 10% means £1 for us, which often doesn’t cover the time and resources spent photographing, listing, packing, and shipping.

So anything above 10% is always appreciated, but never required.

06 / THE DETAILS

EVERYTHING ELSE.
KEPT SIMPLE.

01

POSTAGE & PACKAGING

Postage and packaging costs for sold items are billed to the seller.

This keeps the commission low and the process transparent.

02

MONTHLY PAYMENTS

You’ll receive a summary of sales and your payment at the end of each month.

03

UNSOLD ITEMS

At the end of the agreed consignment period:

• You can extend the listing period

or

• We’ll return all unsold items to you

Simple, fair, and fully transparent.

04

COURIER COLLECTION

If needed, we can arrange courier collection from your address.

You only need to pack the items securely — we take care of the rest.

07 / WHY CONSIGNMENT?

BETTER THAN
BULK SELLING.

Bulk buyers have to offer low amounts, because collections simply aren’t worth the same to the market as they are to their owner.

Consignment avoids that problem entirely.

01 YOU KEEP CONTROL OF YOUR VALUE
02 WE DO THE WORK
03 COLLECTORS GET ACCESS TO DESIRABLE MODELS
04 NO LOW-BALL OFFERS
05 NO RISK OF BEING UNDERPAID
This service is built to help collectors sell fairly — not to profiteer off your collection.
