Getting Started

Configure your modular pricing rules:

1. Navigate to /autoprice/config
2. Select a game from the dropdown
3. Choose a platform tab (Shopify, CardTrader, ManaPool, eBay, etc.)
4. Configure Singles or Sealed independently
5. Set your marketplace sources and price points
6. Add price ranges and configure modifiers per range
7. Drag and drop to reorder pricing steps
8. Use Sample Card Tester to verify rules
9. Save and let the autopricer run

Marketplace Sources

Autopricing supports multiple marketplace sources with 4-slot fallbacks:

• TCGPlayer (USD): Market, Mid, Low, Direct Low prices
• CardMarket (EUR): Market, Mid, Low prices
• CardTrader (USD): Market, Low prices
• CardTrader (EUR): Market, Low prices
• ManaPool (USD): Market, Low prices (MTG only)

Selection modes: Follow Fallbacks, Use Highest, Use Lowest, or Use Average. The system never forces $0 and automatically skips unavailable prices.

Autopricing has 20+ modular pricing steps you can enable, disable, and reorder:

• Marketplace Reference: Select price source (TCGPlayer, CardMarket, etc.)

Platform-First Architecture

Configure pricing separately for each platform:

• Singles vs Sealed: Independent configurations for each
• Copy/Paste: Duplicate configurations between platforms
• Per-Platform Prices: Stored on each stock item
• SKU Syncing: All matching SKUs stay in sync automatically

Per-Item Controls

Lock prices or set minimums on individual stock items:

• Price Override: Enter a value to lock the price (skips calculation)
• Price Floor: Set a minimum price per item
• Always Respect Override: Option to skip all subsequent steps after override
• SKU Syncing: Override and floor sync across matching SKUs

PriceCharting Integration

Separate configuration for PriceCharting pricing (video games, sports cards):

• Access: Navigate to /autoprice/config-pricecharting
• Subscription Required: Requires PriceCharting subscription access
• Game Selection: Select from video game and sports card categories
• Same Rules: Uses same modifier system as TCGPlayer pricing
• Separate Config: Independent rules from TCGPlayer autopricing

Best Practices

• Use Sample Card Tester: Always test before repricing your inventory
• Start Conservative: Begin with small modifiers and adjust based on results
• Separate Price Ranges: Use different rules for cheap vs expensive cards
• Platform-Specific: Configure different rules for different sales channels
• Max Price Movement: Use this to prevent wild price swings
• Temporary Modifiers: Great for flash sales and promotions
• Rarity Baselines: Set minimum floors to protect margins on bulk
• Step Order Matters: Experiment with step order for best results
