Creating a listing
Our listing wizard guides you through three steps:
Find the card
Search for the card by name. We use the Pokemon TCG API to match the exact card, set, and number. This ensures accurate card data and images.
Set condition and price
Select the card condition (Mint/NM, Lightly Played, Moderately Played, Heavily Played). For graded cards, select the grading company and enter the grade. Set your price in EUR — we show Cardmarket market data to help you price competitively.
Upload photos and publish
Upload up to 6 photos of the actual card. Good photos are crucial — they build buyer trust and reduce disputes.
Photo tips
- Use natural daylight or a well-lit desk lamp
- Photograph front and back of the card
- Show close-ups of any imperfections for played cards
- For graded cards, photograph the full slab including the label
- Use a dark, clean background for contrast
- Avoid glare on holographic cards — angle the card slightly
Pricing your cards
Every listing page shows Cardmarket market data: trend price, average sell price, and low price. Use these as benchmarks:
- Price at or slightly below trend price for quick sales
- Price above trend for rare or in-demand cards with strong photos
- Check what similar condition cards are selling for
- Factor in the 6.5% commission when setting your price
