For vendors
You just clicked around a real store. It could be yours.
Everything you were looking at is live software, not screenshots. Same catalog, same search, same checkout, singles and sealed. The only difference is the name on it and whose stock is in it.
What you were just looking at
- A catalog you did not have to build. 849 cards across 6 sets, pulled in automatically with card numbers, rarities, printings and images. Adding a set is a command I run, not a spreadsheet you fill in. Your setup covers two games of your choosing, and more are $100 each.
- Anything else goes up by hand, free. Sealed boxes, packs, bundles, supplies, one-off lots: type it in, price it, done. No catalog needed and nothing extra to pay for it.
- Singles and sealed, one cart. 82 sealed items sit alongside the singles: boxes, elite trainer boxes, blisters, bundles, packs and decks. A buyer puts a $4 pack and a $600 chase card in the same cart and pays once, which is how your table already works.
- Search and filters buyers actually use. Set, condition, printing, foil and price. Type a card name in the search bar and it finds it even if you spell it wrong.
- Market price next to your price. Every listing carries a live market reference so you can price fast and stay honest without flipping between tabs.
- And the prices keep themselves current. Every night these listings are repriced against current market data, per card and per printing — a reverse holo priced as a reverse holo, not as the normal version of the same card. Played copies scale down on their own: lightly played at 90% of near mint, moderately played 75%, heavily played 60%. Untick auto on any card you want to hold at your own number and it stays put. It is the Sunday job you stop having to do.
- Real checkout. Add something to the cart and go through it. PayPal, with the total verified on the server so nobody can edit a price on the way through. This demo runs in PayPal's sandbox, so nothing charges you.
- An admin panel behind it. Add, edit and remove listings, bulk import from a CSV, mark things sold. No database, no code, no spreadsheets. Open it right now, read-only and see the half of the product you would actually live in.
- A show button, included. Heading to an event? One press in the admin pauses online checkout so a card sold at your table cannot also sell on the site. Press again Sunday night and you are back open. The Show Mode add-on goes further: both channels stay open on one inventory, with online orders held for your approval while the show runs.
- It works on the phone you are holding. Which is where most of your buyers are.
What it costs
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Storefront setup, two game catalogs included | $999 one time |
| Each additional game catalog | $100 one time |

| Show mode add-on | $299 one time |
| Custom features | $50 per hour, 2 hour minimum |
Setup covers your domain hookup, branding, two game catalogs of your choosing, PayPal onboarding, and a working checkout before you pay the first month of hosting.
The catalog fee is only for the automatic import: every card number, rarity, printing, image and market price pulled in for you so you never type any of it. Putting your own stock up by hand is always free, in any game, catalog or no catalog.
What the $65 a month actually covers. Hosting, and me. I keep the site up, patched and running, and I am the one you call when something looks wrong. It is backed up every day and I keep a week of those backups, so a bad afternoon is something we roll back rather than something you rebuild.
That $65 is locked for at least your first year. The only thing that would ever move it is my own server costs going up, and if that day comes you hear it from me in advance with the reason. It will not go up because you got busy, sold more, or added stock.
Custom means custom: want lists, price history, buylist mode, a second seller. If you can describe it to me, I can quote it.
The math
Every sale on TCGplayer or eBay pays them a cut of it: around 10 percent on TCGplayer, more on eBay, before payment processing. Sell more, pay more, every month. Your own site is $65 a month whether you sell one card or a thousand. Their bill grows with you and mine does not. At $2,500 a month that is about $2,200 a year you keep, and above roughly $650 a month you are already ahead. The customer is yours too: no search page full of other sellers between them and your checkout.
Did I stop by your table?
If we talked at a show, setup is $799 instead of $999. Just mention where we met. Otherwise, tell me what you sell and where you sell it now, and I will tell you what the switch looks like.
