How TCGRadar works

Build a buying shortlist in four steps.

Choose where you plan to buy and sell. TCGRadar searches the relevant products, applies your costs and ranks the results before anything reaches your basket.

01

Choose a route

Select the market you are buying from, where you plan to sell and which TCG to search.

02

Search the market

TCGRadar uses recent results where possible and refreshes products whose data is stale.

03

Review opportunities

Compare projected profit and ROI after currency conversion, fees, shipping and custom costs.

04

Build your basket

Select the products you want, send supported listings to the marketplace basket and retain the order record.

Configurable selling costs

Use the costs your business actually pays.

Create a separate cost profile for each selling marketplace. Add percentage fees, fixed transaction charges, packaging, shipping rules and your own deductions. TCGRadar applies the correct profile when calculating profit and ROI.

Marketplace fees

Add the percentage deducted from each sale, including promoted listing fees.

Fixed transaction fees

Record charges applied to every transaction, regardless of its value.

Shipping rules

Set different postage deductions above and below your chosen sale-value threshold.

Custom costs

Add any other fixed or percentage-based cost specific to your business.

Flexible marketplace routes

Follow the margin across borders.

Choose any supported buying source and selling destination. TCGRadar brings the prices into your preferred currency, then applies the cost profile for the market where you intend to sell.

Save the directional routes that matter to your store. Each route keeps its own comparison source and selling-cost profile, so the opportunity is judged on the way you actually trade.

From shortlist to order

Turn a shortlist into a tracked purchase.

Select the worthwhile listings, move supported products into the marketplace basket, and retain the figures behind each buying decision.

Buy from the shortlist

Select profitable listings and send supported products to the marketplace basket while retaining control of checkout.

Keep the numbers attached

Record the buy cost, target sale value, destination market, projected profit and ROI against the order.

Track what happens next

Follow purchases through ordered, shipped, forwarded where applicable, and completed.

Plans and pricing

For live card sellers

Keep your stream stocked, show after show.

When every stream needs a deep mix of cards, sourcing one listing at a time does not scale. Search thousands of TCGPlayer products, benchmark them against eBay UK values, and build the next show's stock in batches.

  • Search at scale. Evaluate up to 3,000 products in one focused sourcing run.
  • Build a balanced show. Mix accessible cards, feature products and higher-value moments across sets.
  • Buy the batch faster. Active and Unlimited can send selected listings to a TCGPlayer basket in seconds.

Common questions

What to know before you start.

Straight answers about searches, allowances, marketplace coverage and checkout.

How does the monthly allowance work?

Each product included in a search uses one unit. Each unit you choose to buy uses another. Filtering results does not use additional allowance.

Will TCGRadar place orders for me?

TCGRadar can add selected products to your TCGPlayer basket in seconds, making it much faster to turn a shortlist into a purchase. You remain in control of reviewing the basket and completing checkout. Automated basket building is included with Active and Unlimited subscriptions.

Do I need the browser extension?

The browser extension powers our TCGPlayer basket bot and is included with Active and Unlimited subscriptions. Starter opens each selected product in a new tab instead, so you can add it to your basket manually.

Which marketplaces can I compare?

TCGRadar supports cross-market comparisons between TCGPlayer US, eBay UK, eBay US and Cardmarket. UK sellers can compare opportunities sourced from the US and EU, while US sellers can compare opportunities sourced from the UK and EU. Available buying tools vary by marketplace.

Which trading card games can I search?

TCGRadar supports every game available in our catalogue: Pokémon, Pokémon Japan, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Disney Lorcana, Star Wars Unlimited, Gundam Card Game, Dragon Ball Super Fusion World and Riftbound. Marketplace and pricing coverage can vary by game as we continue validating every buying route.

How reliable are the profit estimates?

The calculation is accurate for the buy price, sale value and costs displayed. You control the fee and shipping rules used, and can inspect the underlying market prices for consistency. Your realised profit will match when you buy and sell at those values and your configured costs reflect the final transaction.
