Most of it is sitting in closets. Yo-GG is where it trades.
Roughly four decades of hardware and software has been manufactured, bought, played, and then quietly shelved. Almost none of it has ever been traded a second time. Not because people don't want to — because the options are bad. A garage sale undervalues it. A generic auction site buries it next to phone cases. A forum DM asks you to trust a stranger with hundreds of dollars and hope the box shows up.
02. Why we exist
Yo-GG was built for the collector who knows exactly what a matching case is worth, who can tell a repro from an original, who kept the manual and the styrofoam insert. That person deserves a market that treats their shelf like inventory worth protecting — not clutter to unload.
The opportunity isn't hypothetical. It's tens of billions of items with real, tracked, rising collector value, stranded because nobody built the trust layer. That's the whole job: make it safe enough that the closet finally opens.
03. How we operate
01
Escrow, always
Money sits with Yo-GG until the buyer confirms the item arrived as described. No wire transfers, no goods-and-services roulette, no vanishing sellers.
02
Sellers keep 100%
0% seller commission. The buyer pays a flat, disclosed fee, and the seller picks one flat shipping tier. Everyone sees the real number before they commit.
03
Binding offers are binding
An offer is a commitment, not a conversation starter. Sellers get 72 hours to accept. Accepted deals are locked — price, fee, and total.
04
Condition told straight
Grades, included pieces, disc wear, matching case, sealed or not. Collectors know the difference, so the listing form makes you say it.
04. What's next
Every listing, offer, label, and payout on Yo-GG is one more piece of gaming history moving from a closet to someone who'll actually use it. If you've been holding onto a shelf you keep meaning to deal with — this is the place.
