Two venues. One card. 53x apart.

That is one real card in our own report window. Most guides average a spread like that into a single clean line and never show you it existed.

Market Transparency Report #1. 65,117 completed sales totalling $25,935,941 across two live venues over a 67 day window. Averages are per venue, not blended.

What we do with it
Both venue averages stay on the card, with the observation count behind each one. We report the spread instead of averaging it into a clean line.
What a flag carries
Cited sale IDs, the time window, a confidence band, and the model version that raised it. Six detectors run over the comp stream.
What a flag is not
Never a named party and never a finding of fact. Every flag has a rebuttal window, and one dismissed under review cannot be re-raised without fresh evidence.
Our own coverage gap

In that same window, 12.2% of ingested listings matched a canonical card definition. The other 87.8% were excluded from every aggregate rather than force matched into one.

Read the methodology

Odds first. Then the box math.

Sealed EV is only as honest as the hit rates underneath it. We start from observed print runs, not from a marketing sheet.

box EV=Σ(hit rate×fair value)vssealed ask→EV-to-ask gap
hit ratein the API
Printed odds and observed print runs today. Community break aggregations are the next source tier.
fair valuein the API
The p25 to p75 band with its confidence score, already served on every card by /v2.
sealed asknot yet
Sealed SKU matching runs on the existing eBay and Fanatics lanes. Not ingested yet.

Until the third input is real, we do not print an EV number. That is the same rule every other figure on this page runs on.

Rare parallel to total print run, from the same report window. A ratio running above the documented distribution is what raises a pull-rate flag. It is a pattern, not a finding of fact.

Evidence you can inspect.

Planned Dealer access

Developer access is planned within Dealer. No free developer API, separate API tier or unlimited allowance is offered.

Customer collection export is distinct from a raw market-data export. Raw source payloads and bulk provider datasets are not part of this offer.

The two rows nobody else fills in.

Card Ladder flags suspicious sales and publishes a confidence level too — credit where it is due. What no one else lets you do is argue back with a logged rebuttal, or see the venues they are missing.

Developer access

Planned Dealer access

Developer access is planned within Dealer. No free developer API, separate API tier or unlimited allowance is offered.

Customer collection export is distinct from a raw market-data export. Raw source payloads and bulk provider datasets are not part of this offer.

Paid plans coming soon

Paid subscriptions are closed. Prices describe the planned release; paid workflows are not yet available.

Compare planned scopes

Tell us which cards, countries and workflow you need. No subscription payment is taken.

Nothing here is smoothed in secret.

Probabilistic, not accusatory

A flag is a statistical statement about a pattern. Participant identities are stripped server side and no output names anyone.

Banded and disputable

Every number carries a confidence score. Every flag carries a rebuttal window and an append only dispute log.

Research, not advice

Card Intel shows fair value against ask and which comps look wrong. It does not issue buy or sell verdicts.
