Slab Dynasty Auctions are real-time, competitive bidding events where collectors can buy and sell physical slabs held securely in the Slab Dynasty Vault. Every card listed for auction is already authenticated, graded, and stored in-house, so there are no shipping delays or condition risks during the auction process. When an auction ends and payment is completed, the slab transfers instantly to your Vault, ready to keep, trade, or redeem.

Auctions offer an exciting way to acquire cards at market-driven prices while giving sellers maximum visibility and competitive bidding momentum.

How Auctions Work

When a seller lists a card, the auction begins immediately with the settings they choose—starting price, reserve (optional), and duration. Bidders can place bids in real time, and the highest bidder at the close of the auction wins the card.

Key mechanics:

  • Cards are always held in the Vault during the auction
  • Ownership transfers instantly when payment is completed
  • Bidders remain fully anonymous
  • Notifications keep both sides updated throughout the process

Auctions combine real-time excitement with secure and automated fulfillment.

Payments and Autopay

Auction payments are fully automated to keep the experience smooth and enforce bidding commitments.

  • Autopay triggers immediately when you win an auction
  • Payments draw from your Slab Dynasty Wallet first
  • Any remaining balance automatically charges your backup card
  • You cannot turn off Autopay—placing a bid is a commitment to pay if you win
  • All payouts for sold cards are deposited directly into your Wallet

If payment fails, you receive a 24-hour window to resolve it. Failure to pay cancels the sale and bans the buyer from future auctions.

Listing Cards for Auction

You can list any card stored in your Vault for auction.

Sellers can choose:

  • Starting price
  • Whether to set a reserve
  • Auction duration
  • Visibility and notification settings

Cards cannot be sold or traded while they are in an active auction. Sellers may cancel the auction only if no bids have been placed.

Once an auction ends and payment is confirmed, funds are deposited in your Wallet, and the card is transferred to the winning bidder.

Fees

Slab Dynasty Auctions apply simple, transparent fees:

  • 2% seller fee
  • 2% buyer fee
  • Buyers may also incur processing fees depending on payment method

Wallet transactions carry no additional processing fees.

Promoting Auctions

To maximize visibility:

  • Start at $1 with no reserve (the best-performing strategy)
  • Run the auction for 7 days
  • Share the auction link on social media
  • Users who have favorited the card will be automatically notified when it goes live

Slab Dynasty also promotes select high-interest auctions to the community.

Bidding Experience

Bidders receive notifications for:

  • Successful bid placement
  • Being outbid
  • Auctions ending soon
  • Auction results and invoices
  • Payment confirmations

This ensures you never miss updates or lose track of your active bids.

Auction Integrity

Slab Dynasty enforces a zero-tolerance policy for shill bidding.

Suspicious behavior can result in:

  • Removal of bids
  • Cancellation of auctions
  • Permanent account bans

The platform actively monitors activity to ensure fairness and a healthy marketplace.
