Looking for pricing app suggestions

I’m looking for a price tracking/data aggregation app to reference sales data from various sources.

My primary use would be to price cards while shopping in person so I’d prefer it to have a dedicated mobile app or at least be mobile friendly.

I also need to renew my PSA membership so I’m particularly interested in opinions on Card Ladder Pro?

Curious to hear which app everyone prefers for this use case and why?

Thanks

Tcgfish for graded and tcgplayer for raw is my vote

Doesn’t it seem like tcgfish is not updating lately though? A lot of cards I look up are like 2 months behind on pricing data.

I absolutely love card ladder. I mostly just use the sales portion, though it does have some other cool features, but the lack of awareness of how great card ladder is (and its existence to most people in the hobby) will always confuse me. The site is pretty well polished and easy to use, though 5-10% of ebay comps may be missing, so if I’m lacking data on niche cards, I’ll double check with ebay solds and 130point.

I check sold comps daily so I’m pretty picky on accurate data, but I found that card ladder also shows accurate prices for 2 kinds of best offer accepted (ebay solds have either the line crossed through them, or just list the ‘fixed price’ number, even though the sale price was below that).

Last thing, mobile is great too (imo at least) and I use both desktop and mobile equally.

Interesting thanks for the response. Capturing accurate data on OBO listings is huge. The thing that concerned me is on their website everything seemed to be sports focused.

It sounds like in your experience the pokemon data is pretty comprehensive though?

I’ve been playing with TCGfish based on the recommendation and really like it but I’ve also noticed the data being a little behind. Outside of that it seems pretty good though.

I’m still open to suggestions if you have other recommendations!

TCGfish is owned by Sean Bassik.

I don’t know if that’s true anymore.

It’s the best pricing app I’ve ever used

Oh thanks for the update! I still side eye CGC though.

I liked it because you could see all the different grading company pop reports on one screen, but the ones I was checking on seemed to be inaccurate.

Most of my collection is raw anyway so it’s simply not for me. Itd be nice if they included that as well though.

Oh no, I hope tcgfish doesn’t change too much. I’ve been scraping the data for my own collection portfolio :face_holding_back_tears::sweat_smile:.

I’m not sure an accurate way to measure raws is possible. Condition varies too much. Even pulling from eBay is useless. Sometimes on eBay people will bundle stuff together and that would skew data. I bundle stuff all the time

Ooh I don’t like this. I really preferred tcgfish stay independent. In the hands of a grading company I don’t trust it. Ugh

It hasn’t been “independent” in a long time. The prior co-owner was Sean Bassik’s company.

Fair. I more meant “independent” from the grading companies. It’s obviously a conflict of interest for pretty much any business related to pokemon but especially so for one of the grading companies.

I use 130point for eBay sales and the alt app I learned last week has auction sales and best offer prices across all platforms if you look up a card.

I use it for 99.99% pokemon and found it to be incredible for it, and I also see pwcc and some goldin sales. I talked with the founder (one of? idk if the others were co founders or not) and he was pretty friendly. I know he stayed on when collectors, the umbrella company that owns psa, bought card ladder but I’m mot sure for how.

I still use ebay comps to double check occasionally, but card ladder is 100% my go to. That being said, I think ebay comps works well enough for most.

130point is great and I like that it shows the best offer accepted, although I’ve seen a few cards I’ve sold with an incorrect best offer.
