Want List Tips
Print for Card Shows
Copy your list as text and print it before heading to a card show. Dealers love when buyers know exactly what they want — you will get better prices.
Set Max Prices
Adding max prices prevents impulse buying. At card shows, the excitement can make you overpay. Your want list price keeps you disciplined.
Share with Dealers
Share your want list URL with dealers and card shop owners. Many will reach out when they get your cards in stock. It is free networking.
Use Priority Wisely
Mark cards as "Need Now" only for true needs (set completion, time-sensitive buys). "Want" for most cards. "Eventually" for wish list items with no urgency.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I save my want list?
Your want list is automatically saved to your browser's local storage. It persists between visits on the same device and browser. To access your list on a different device, use the Share Link feature to generate a URL containing your full list.
Can I share my want list with dealers?
Yes! Click "Share Link" to generate a URL containing your entire want list. Send this link to dealers, card shop owners, or fellow collectors. They can see exactly what you are looking for, including your max price and priority level. You can also click "Copy as Text" for a plain-text version perfect for email or social media.
What do the priority levels mean?
Need Now (red) means you are actively searching for this card and willing to buy immediately at the right price. Want (yellow) means you are interested but not in a rush. Eventually (white) means it is on your wish list but low urgency — you will grab it if the price is right but are not actively hunting.
Should I set max prices on my want list?
Absolutely. Setting max prices prevents impulse purchases, especially at card shows where excitement can lead to overpaying. Your max price should reflect your research on recent sold prices. It also helps dealers understand your budget when you share your list with them.
How do I use this for set completion?
Use the "Quick Add from Database" search to add specific cards from sets you are working on. Mark each card as "Found" when you acquire it. Use the sport filter to focus on one set at a time. The stats bar shows your completion progress at a glance.
