Trade Your Cards for Furniture

Trade Your Cards for Furniture and Flooring

This is something no other card shop can offer. Paul James Sports & Trading Cards shares a building and an owner with Paul James Home, a furniture and flooring showroom. That means a card collection you've stopped looking at can become a new bed, sofa, rug or floor.

It's already happened

One collector traded a collection with us and walked out with a £1,000 bed package for the house. No cash changed hands. The cards went into our stock and they got a better night's sleep.

What you can trade towards

  • Beds and mattresses
  • Sofas and chairs
  • Dining and bedroom furniture
  • Rugs
  • Flooring: carpet, LVT, laminate and vinyl, fitted by our own team

Browse the full range at pauljameshome.co.uk. The showroom is in the same Co-op Department Store building, so you can look at both on one visit.

How it works

  1. Email hello@pauljamescards.co.uk with photos or a list of your cards.
  2. We value the collection and give you a trade credit figure. Trade credit is typically higher than a cash offer, because we're saving on marketplace fees at both ends.
  3. Pick what you want from the Paul James Home showroom or website.
  4. If the furniture costs more than the credit, you pay the difference. If it's less, the balance stays on account for next time.

Trade enquiries stay open even when we've paused cash buying.

What we're looking for

Formula 1 and football first: Topps Chrome, Finest, Eccellenza, Lights Out, UCC, Merlin and Premier League. Graded slabs, numbered parallels, autographs and complete base sets are all welcome. Other sports and Pokémon considered.
