## What is Cardboard Deals?

Never miss the deal.

Cardboard Deals watches eBay UK and US around the clock for trading card deals. It identifies every card and sealed product, prices it against independent market data, and surfaces the listings actually worth grabbing, live.

GAMES
• Magic: The Gathering
• One Piece Card Game, with English and Japanese printings priced separately
More trading card games are on the way.

FREE, FOREVER
• Live deal feeds for every game on eBay UK and US: switch game from Home. Every deal shows the price, the market benchmark and the percentage below it, so you can judge for yourself.
• Scan any Magic card with your camera and see the exact printing, its live price, price history, recent sales and a grading verdict in seconds. For One Piece, search by name or card code.
• Search every printing, with raw and graded prices (PSA 10 and PSA 9), history and sales volume.
• Sealed products too: booster boxes, bundles, decks and Secret Lair drops, with their own deals, pages and guide prices.
• Browse every set with price trends and release countdowns.
• Track your collection across games: what you paid, what each card is worth now and the gain, a value for each game, a market-value chart and Insights that show your top movers and your best flip.
• Filter deals by condition, language, Buy It Now or auctions ending soon, singles or sealed. Your filters are remembered.
• Deals from another country carry a note about the import charges you'd pay.
• Seller ratings on every deal, and honest warnings: we flag anomalies and repeat-offender sellers so you don't get burned.
• No ads. Ever. The free tier is genuinely free.

PREMIUM (£4.99/month, 7-day free trial)
• A watchlist of up to 50 rules for any game: a specific card, a whole set, sealed products or the entire market, with your own discount threshold, condition band, language, market, maximum price and buying format. Each rule keeps a list of the deals it caught.
• Instant push notifications the moment a rule matches.
• Priority fresh market data: 10 on-demand price refreshes a day.
• Refer a friend: a free month for every friend who joins with your code and stays subscribed.

HOW WE DECIDE SOMETHING'S A DEAL
We build a market benchmark per card and printing from independent market prices and recent sales, raw and graded tracked separately, and flag listings a meaningful percentage below it. The benchmark and the percentage are shown on every deal.

THE SMALL PRINT
We link to eBay and TCGplayer listings and may earn a commission on qualifying purchases; it never affects the price you pay. We don't verify authenticity: check the seller and the price history before buying.
