TCG website map: from opens and pricing to grading and sold records
One card usually needs different sites: opens, identity, graded POP, regional supply, and sold comps. Mashing them into one “market price” causes errors. This map follows jobs — Cardz.game and CardZ Marketcap first, then regional tools.
Core entries
| Site | Best for | Watch |
|---|---|---|
| Cardz.game | Online opens, Points, ship requests | Opens are spend; read pool/Points/ship terms |
| CardZ Marketcap | PSA 10 price, POP, cap, rank | Cap = price × POP; not a guaranteed sale of your copy |
Start ops with Cardz.game guide; have a name/number → PSA 10 lookup.
Grading / POP / certs
PSA Pop, PSA Cert, GemRate, CGC Pop, Beckett Registry — each answers graded counts or cert lookup. None alone proves raw liquidity or future returns. Cert numbers can be abused; PSA warns about that.
China / Japan / Asia
Jihuanshe (CN CNY comps), SNKRDUNK (JP authenticated listings), Asia Pokémon card search (ZH identity), JP Pokémon card search, Pokémon.cn products, ONE PIECE official card list — identity and regional supply, not universal sold prices.
NA / EU / public sold
TCGplayer Market Price, eBay sold/completed, Cardmarket, PriceCharting — always match set/language/condition; add FX, fees, shipping, duty.
One-card workflow
- Official card list for name/number/language/edition.
- PSA cert + POP if slabbed.
- CardZ Marketcap for that printing’s PSA 10 fields + date.
- Regional sold comps.
- Add FX, fees, ship, duty, condition.
Platform compare (not singles market): comparison. Before paying: safety checklist.

Listing a site means it does a clear job — not a guarantee of prices, stock, sellers, or outcomes.
