Look the handle up before you send the money or the card.
CardConduct is a public, evidence-backed record of trading-card conduct on both sides of a sale, across every card game. A buyer checks a seller before paying. A seller checks a buyer before shipping, because a buyer who takes delivery and then claims the card never arrived costs that seller the card and the payment both. Each entry shows what was reported, what we checked, the screenshots, and a dated log of everything filed against that handle in that role. You draw your own conclusion.
Reports acted on counts every report taken out of the pending queue, whether it is still under investigation, published, or dismissed. It is not a count of entries.
Nothing publishes because one stranger said so.
Reports are investigated for 3 to 5 days before a handle appears, and a conclusive case can publish sooner. Either way the entry says which. Reports that do not hold up are dismissed and never published.
Caution shown with evidence. Not a verdict.
A handle in one role, not a person
Public handles and storefronts only. No names, no addresses, no private information, ever, and we do not go looking for them. The same account is routinely both a buyer and a seller, so those are two separate entries that are never shown as one person. A buyer entry says nothing about how that account sells.
When, never who
The audit log shows the date every report came in and never who filed it. Reporter identity is not published because it is not collected in the first place. That holds for a seller reporting a buyer exactly as it holds for a buyer reporting a seller.
Factual basis only
Entries record what was observed at a named source, not conclusions about anyone's character or intent. Saying a buyer claimed a delivered card never arrived sits close to alleging fraud, so a buyer entry has to rest on the delivery confirmation, the platform's case outcome, or the buyer's own words.
A real way off
Mispriced a card, did not run comps, opened a claim before the package turned up? Explain it and the handle is cleared. That grace is one time. Read the full policy.
