Research & Purchase

Card You Know.

A tracked identity. A copy you already own. A manual entry. Give the record a useful starting point, then decide what to do next.

Purchasing a card happens outside CardDirector. Live eBay listing research is planned and is not connected in this preview.

Research & Purchase

Review Before You Buy

Begin with a tracked identity, an owned copy, or a manual card entry. Live eBay listing research through Listing Lookup and Buy Radar is planned and is not connected in this preview. Keep the card’s identity, market context, and user-defined purchase limits together before a Prospect is created or updated.

  • Planned active-listing search and review; live eBay listings are not connected
  • Planned Buy Radar for broader listing discovery
  • Card and listing-detail match checks
  • Prospect creation from tracked cards, owned cards, or manual entry, with duplicate guardrails
01
Search Active Listings

Planned workflow: use card context or a reviewed manual search to find relevant eBay listings. Live listing access is not connected.

02
Review the Match

Compare listing identity, format, price, shipping, and available seller information before acting.

03
Carry the Research Forward

Create or update the Prospect only after you review the candidate yourself.

Synthetic fixture New Prospect dialog offering tracked, owned, or manual card entry.

Synthetic fixture / Demo data only. No live market or customer data.

Start a Prospect from a tracked identity, an owned copy, or a manual card entry while keeping the workflow focused around one connected record.

Found a card CardDirector hasn’t matched yet? Start with it anyway. Create the Prospect manually, enter the card identity, add your own values, purchase details, and notes, and keep the same CardDirector Item ID as the card moves forward. You can connect supported market data later without rebuilding the record.

02 / Inspect & Submit

Look Closely.
Keep What You Learn.

Review the card’s front and back. Keep inspection findings with submission choices, fees and dates. Record the grader’s result when it returns, then decide the card’s next path.
