One Card. One Connected Record.

Follow the Card Through the Complete Workflow.

See how the same card context carries forward from purchase research through grading, resale, connected eBay shipment follow-through, or retention.

Home & Priorities

Start With What Needs Attention.

The Dashboard brings selected cards, upcoming follow-ups, alerts, tools, and workflow activity into one customizable starting point. Item Finder then takes you directly to the right record without searching each stage separately.

User-selected Pinned Items
Action Inbox, alerts, and items needing attention
Upcoming follow-ups, Calendar access, and delivery-date visibility
Program-wide Item Finder by card details or CardDirector Item ID
Dashboard widgets that can be added, hidden, moved, resized, packed, or reset

Customize the Dashboard

Add, move, resize, hide, and pack widgets into a Dashboard layout that supports the way you work.

Current CardDirector Notification Center showing item-linked activity and the move from Market Scan into Prospects. — Review item-linked activity, understand what changed, and open the related record directly.

Follow-Up Calendar showing upcoming card reminders and actions. — See card-linked review dates and next actions together without losing the item context.

Discover & Evaluate

Surface Potential Opportunities. Build the Record.

Start from the Card Catalog, a card identity you intentionally track, a physical copy you own, or broader market movement. Compare estimated raw and graded values, sales activity, costs, grade assumptions, and possible outcomes before moving the card forward.

Multiple Market Scan workspaces for the Card Catalog, Tracked Cards, and Owned Cards
Card Records that keep tracked identities separate from physical copies
Potential Grading Opportunity context and Raw vs. Graded Quick Check
Estimated Profit, Estimated Loss, and Estimated Margin when the required scenario inputs are available

Market Scan — From Scope to Card Review

Choose the cards to research, run the scan, compare the result set, and open a card-level review with the supporting context visible.

Multiple Market Scan Workspaces

Keep separate Card Catalog, Tracked Cards, and Owned Cards research tabs open, switch among them, and rename a workspace without rebuilding its scope.

CardDirector Card Records showing tracked card identities, current estimated market values, and actions to open a Prospect, record an owned copy, research eBay listings, or refresh market information. — Keep selected card identities on your radar, refresh their market context, and carry the right record into the next workflow.

Current CardDirector Owned Card review showing one distinct physical copy with its recorded acquisition cost, acquisition date, condition, and storage location. — Record physical copies independently, including acquisition details, condition, location, and the next workflow action.

Separate Scan Workspaces

Keep several Card Catalog, Tracked Cards, or Owned Cards searches open without losing each workspace’s scope and results.

Manual Value Checks

Request current estimated market information when needed and keep timestamped checkpoints with the owned-card record.

Connected Handoff

Open a Prospect or add an owned copy without rebuilding the underlying card identity.

Current CardDirector Market Swings workspace showing market scope and movement coverage. — Review broader movement with selected scope and supporting context rather than treating a change as a recommendation.

Current market context is available when you need it. Market Scan, Tracked Cards, Owned Cards, Market Swings, and related pricing views can pull connected card and pricing data directly inside CardDirector, with no separate market-data subscription to manage.

Research & Purchase

Research a Potential Purchase in Context.

Use Listing Lookup and Buy Radar for live eBay research, or begin with a tracked identity, an owned copy, or a manual card entry. Keep the card’s identity, market context, and user-defined purchase limits together before a Prospect is created or updated.

Active listing search and listing review
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

Search Active Listings

Use card context or a reviewed manual search to find relevant eBay listings.

Review the Match

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

Carry the Research Forward

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

1Search

Find relevant active listings.

2Review

Compare the listing with the card and buying assumptions.

3Carry Forward

Create or update the Prospect without rebuilding the research.

New Prospect dialog offering three starting points: create from Tracked Cards, create from Owned Cards, or enter a card manually. — 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.

Inspect & Submit

Prepare, Submit, and Track the Card.

After purchase, track arrival, inspection, grader and service choices, order details, dates, fees, grades, certification information, and the decision to sell or retain the card.

Price, Sell & Close Out

Price, Sell, and Close Out the Card.

Prepare listing information, record asking and minimum prices, monitor cards that need attention, and review Recorded Profit/Loss after entering the completed sale and its related costs.

eBay Listing Pricing

Prepare Listing Prices in Batches Without Giving Up Review and Control.

Use CardDirector’s eBay listing-file workflows to identify matches, review variants, refresh pricing context, and make deliberate adjustments before exporting your updated listing file.

eBay Price Refresh
eBay New Listings Pricing
Variant and fallback review
Manual adjustment before export

Where these workflows use market context, CardDirector can pull current pricing data on demand without requiring a separate market-data subscription.

Recorded Sale Review

Compare the Completed Sale With the Original Plan.

Keep recorded sale revenue, marketplace fees, shipping and handling costs, acquisition cost, grading cost, and other user-entered expenses together for a transparent closeout review.

Recorded Profit/Loss describes a completed user-recorded transaction based on entered sale revenue, costs, fees, and shipping. It is not a prediction, appraisal, tax calculation, or financial recommendation.

eBay Shipments & Retained Cards

Follow Eligible eBay Shipments. Preserve the History.

Connect your own eBay account to bring available shipment information for eligible purchase and sale orders into CardDirector, while Vault preserves the history of cards you choose to keep.
