Buy, Sell, Throw.
We have created the perfect online marketplace to buy and sell discs with ease. We've spent countless hours designing, refining, and streamlining this app to provide you with all the features you need to quickly and easily post your discs for sale and simultaneously search for your disc of choice.
Find the disc you actually want.
Having spent too much time trying to find a specific new or used disc, only to find that it had already been sold... we decided enough was enough. We invented Disc Hopper to bring world-class search and convenience to our sport, and to share it with the world. Whether you are looking to buy, sell, or both, we've got you covered.
Advanced filters tailored for our sport
Browse through our ever growing marketplace, searching through thousands of discs from hundreds of manufacturers. Can't find that special disc? Save your search to get notified when new items show up.
Auctions, Buy It Now, we've got it all
Marketplace sellers can choose different sales options depending on their goals. Choose between the excitement of an Auction or the convenience of Buy It Now. Or don't choose at all and use both.
Sell for what you want
Seller tools such as our Profit Calculator remove the guess-work from figuring our price-points. Determine how much you want to make, and adjust your prices to see how much you will actually take home. We have friendlier fees than competing marketplaces.

Frequently asked questions
If you have anything else you want to ask, reach out to us.
How are credit card payments and payouts processed?
We utilize one of the most trusted names in the industry, STRIPE. You can learn more at stripe.com.
BIN vs Auction style bidding, what's the difference?
BIN stands for Buy It Now and this type of listing has a set price, whereas the Auction style listing has a starting price and duration of bidding time set by the seller. Auction bidding occurs in increments of one US dollar raises or more.
What is the Profit Calculator used for?
This is a simple tool used to get an approximate value that you will receive from the sale of a disc.
As a Buyer, can you cancel an order or auction bid once placed?
Not at this time. Be certain of the item you want to purchase or bid on before you do so.
How do I post an item on Disc Hopper?
Once your Seller account is setup and verified, simply click on the Sell tab, select Post New Item, and you're on your way.
What is a marked disc?
A disc with any non factory markings on it, this includes but is not limited to sharpie (ex: name, phone #), custom ink stamp, owner penned (not factory penned), dye, glow paint, or any other alterations to a disc.
How should I ship a disc?
For single discs one of the most common methods is a bubble wrap mailer (9.5" x 13.5" or 14.5") with a cardboard backer inserted to add stiffness to the package and helps prevent unwanted bending of the disc during shipping. For multiple discs some larger bubble mailers will work or a cardboard box of appropriate size.

After 4 days Disc Hopper will send you daily reminders to ship out your orders. Remember, buyers can leave a rating linked to your profile and untimely shipping practices often lead to poor ratings, which lead to less sales. Please ship out your discs promptly.

How are discs graded?
Discs are graded using what's commonly referred to as the "Sleepy Scale". We allow for 0.5 intervals on our scale. If you're in doubt of a grade, you should round down condition not up.
What is the Sleepy Scale for grading discs?
The Sleepy Scale: 10 - Never thrown, not marked/inked, new condition. May have some very light storage wear. // 9 - Field tested, very minimal use, storage wear, no ink. // 8 - Lightly used, may be inked. // 7 - Used with some wear, but still in decent condition. // 6 - Typical used disc with the usual dings, scratches, etc. // 5 - Pretty beat up with loss of original stability. Still usable. // 1-4 - We don't recommend selling anything that beat up.
What are the fees involved with using the Disc Hopper platform?
We charge some of the lowest fees compared to other platforms. The Seller will be charged a fee of 9.95% of the total transaction (disc price plus shipping cost), excluding applicable state taxes. The Buyer is charged a transaction fee of 3.5% on the total sale, excluding applicable state taxes. There is also a 30 cent fee per transaction on all purchases.
