That sounds like a good deal! I’m really just trying to get all of Blaine’s Pokemon 1st so it was more of a want than a need. But yeah I’m sure I’ll get a good.price next.time!
Hi
Is this being updated? Its a beautiful doc to have.
I actually decided to create a website that will have pop data for every grade and all sales history for every card from every set & variant (eg. Base set 1st edition, shadowless, unlimited, trainer deck a, trainer deck b etc).
I just finished the engine with all the sets today, so pop changes will be tracked from today for every card along with sales history. I’ve just got to do the front end now and put it online 
Edit: We get a lot of threads for how much is X graded card worth so I figured this would solve pretty much all of that as well as be a useful tool for everyone as well as me.

Thankyou Pierce, my friends and I have found your spreadsheet very handy in the last few weeks.

cant wait for the site to go live!
I’ll try to get something up soon, like an alpha version even it’s it’s pretty basic so people can look at the data and give feedback.
Had some speed bumps getting everything setup on azure and I’ve had to refactor some code but hopefully something will be up next week.

Ok I’ve got something online now that people can have a look at. Please be aware that I threw the three pages together in about 20min just as a means to view the data that the engine collects, it’s in no way a reflection on how the site will look later. It’s just a lot easier for me to inspect data this way than via the database.
At the moment I’ve only got English sets, I’ll add Japanese and promos etc at some point. I’m aware the neo genesis 1st edition link has no cards, they’re all in the other genesis link though.
I haven’t tested this at all or looked at the data, I uploaded at like 5pm Friday then went home and won’t be able to work on it until Monday … so there are probably issues.
If you find problems with the data feel free to PM me and I’ll fix it. If you have any suggestions for what you’d like to see done with the data let me know too. I want to do a lot of graphs and visual representation to identify trends but that’ll come later.

This is also running on the absolute minimal spec hosting for now so sorry if it’s slow.

Woooowww man, this is insane!!! Thank you so much!!!
I think that you should find out a way for people to help you, I don’t know, maybe open a new post here where people chip in sale prices together with an ebay link or some shit like that. I think it would be less work for you if you are doing it alone… it should be like a collective thing, by everyone for everyone!!
Great initiative man!!! Put some ads xD

All good mate It’s ok I don’t need help as I’m not manually getting this data I’ve built an engine that collects it for me, I don’t have to do anything now in regards to the data collection it just runs automatically each week. All the hard work has been done now I don’t really have to do much other than little fixes and tweaks to the code if I see data collection issues.

This is awesome, thanks Pierce.
Just a slight request, not sure if easy to implement. Maybe next to where it says something like “1999 Base Set” there are subcatagories like “1st”, “Shadowless”, “Unlimited” etc
edit: Is there a way to filter the list by specific PSA (Like 8) and only show those results?

@pierce I’m in the middle of listing things on eBay and this website is SO helpful. I truly appreciate this and I know countless others will. Thanks so much!

This is awesome Pierce.
There was a batch of Shadowless holo PSA 9’s that ended on December 10th sold by triumphtrsix on Ebay. Blastoise sold for $510 but your project didn’t catch it or the other listings for some reason.
Maybe there’s a bug for you to figure out with those. Let me know if I can provide any additional info on those listings. I don’t know if/how I could link them since they are too old now but if you need more details message me.
Also, I’m curious, how does it read cert numbers from pictures? I found that some cert numbers were really blurry on older listings or poorly lit photos so I had to look close or in some cases guess the number and enter it on PSA’s site to see if it came up to be sure.
Is there a difference between this site and the PSA auction price tool?
Yeah I’m going to do something in regards to subcategories I just haven’t had time to think about the design. The way it is now was just to get something quick online that I can use to check the data that was collated.
The table search should let you filter but it’s not working for the grade at the moment, not sure why, I’ll take a look on Monday. At the moment your best bet is to click the grade heading in the table and sort by grade.
All the data is scraped from PSA’s auction prices section, so I don’t really need to worry about reading cert numbers and stuff because it’s already done for me. If the auctions aren’t on their site then they don’t get recorded in my database. That said I might add a way for people to submit links to auctions if they know of any missing that I can verify and add to the database.
The data is the same, I scrape PSA’s auction price data and use it. The difference is the ability to view all cards by set, see pop and prices on the same page and sort/view the auction link/view vert link etc all from the one page. I’m going to be adding a lot more analysis tools and graphs on the sales data, for instance I think it would be interesting to plot pop changes and price over time for a specific card/grade on the same line graph.
One of the reasons I made this site is because I hate using PSA’s auction price site, it sucks, and I want to do more with the data.
