How PokeMiner Calculates Pokemon Card Prices

Every price you see on PokeMiner comes from completed eBay sold listings. We ignore active (asking) listings entirely. A seller can list a Base Set Charizard for fifty thousand dollars, but that tells you nothing about what the card actually trades for. Only real transactions reflect the real market.

Our pipeline ingests fresh sold listings every night. Each listing is matched to a specific card and condition using a combination of title parsing and image classification. For graded cards we extract the grader (PSA, CGC, BGS, TAG) and the numerical grade so that sales never mix across grades.

Once listings are matched, we compute trailing averages over rolling windows: 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, and one year. The 30-day window is the default surfaced on most card pages because it balances recency against statistical noise. For cards with thin volume we extend the window automatically to keep the number meaningful.

Outliers are filtered with a tight band. Listings outside two standard deviations of the rolling median are excluded so that a single mis-priced sale (autograph, error variant, mis-titled listing) does not move the headline price. Filtered listings are still visible in the per-card sold listings table marked as outliers, so you can audit every decision.

Sample sizes are surfaced on every card. If you see an average backed by 40 sales, that's a reliable number. If you see one backed by 2 sales, treat it as a hint, not a verdict.

Patterns That Move Pokemon Card Prices

New set release

When a new English set drops, money flows out of older sets for 4 to 8 weeks as collector budgets focus on the new chase cards. Older sets usually recover and often climb past their pre-release levels once the new set's chase prices settle.

Viral content moments

A single popular YouTube or TikTok video featuring a card can lift its price 10 to 30 percent in a week. The effect is biggest on illustration rares and alt arts because those are the cards the viewer remembers.

Competitive meta shifts

When a Pokemon becomes meta-relevant in Standard or Expanded tournament play, every printable version sees demand within days. This effect fades quickly when the meta rotates, which creates predictable buy and sell windows.

Grading cycles

PSA submission spikes in January and June push graded supply down for 8 to 12 weeks while submissions process. Graded prices tend to firm for two to three months after each spike before the new slabs hit the market.

Raw vs Graded Pokemon Card Prices

Raw means ungraded: the card is not encapsulated by PSA, CGC, BGS, or any other grader. Raw prices typically reflect near-mint or better condition unless explicitly noted, because that's the condition assumed by most eBay listings that don't mention grade.

Graded means the card has been authenticated and encapsulated with a numerical condition grade. PSA is the market leader. PSA 10 (gem mint) sells at a heavy premium to PSA 9 (mint), which sells at a moderate premium to raw. The exact spread depends on the card. Modern illustration rares often see PSA 10 prices at 5 to 10 times raw. Vintage Base Set holos can see 20x or more between raw and PSA 10.

CGC has grown quickly as a PSA alternative and the price gap between PSA 10 and CGC 10 has narrowed significantly on modern cards. On vintage Pokemon the PSA premium persists. BGS is respected but lower-volume in the Pokemon market specifically.

On every card page on PokeMiner you'll see raw, PSA 10, PSA 9, CGC 10, and BGS 9.5 prices broken out separately, each with its own 30-day chart and sample size.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are Pokemon card prices on PokeMiner calculated?
Every price is calculated from completed eBay sold listings over the trailing 30 days. We ignore active listings entirely because asking prices are unreliable. A seller can list any card for any amount, but that tells you nothing about what the card actually trades for. The average you see represents real money that changed hands between real buyers and sellers.
How often are Pokemon card prices updated?
Our scraper runs every day and pulls fresh sold listings overnight. Averages, price charts, and the trending signals on this page refresh by morning. On individual card pages you can also trigger a live rescrape that pulls the very latest sold data on demand.
Are raw and graded prices tracked separately?
Yes. We split sold listings by condition and grade so a PSA 10 average never mixes with a raw average. On each card page you can see raw, PSA 10, PSA 9, CGC 10, CGC 9.5, and BGS 9.5 prices as separate lines, each with its own sample size and 30-day chart.
What is a price mover?
A price mover is a card whose 7-day average sold price differs materially from its prior 30-day average. We require a minimum sample size before flagging a mover so single-sale outliers don't pollute the list. The biggest gainers and losers are recalculated daily and shown on the price movers page.
What is a top seller?
Top sellers are cards with the highest eBay sale volume in the last 24 hours. Volume is a leading indicator of demand. A card that quietly sells 30 copies a day at a stable price is in stronger health than a card that spiked once on a single sale.
Where do you get the sold listing data?
PokeMiner ingests completed sold listings from eBay through a combination of public listings data and authenticated marketplace feeds. Every price on this site can be traced back to a specific sale on a specific date. We do not mix in dealer pricing, TCGplayer market prices, or estimated values.
Are Japanese Pokemon card prices on PokeMiner?
We track English-language Pokemon TCG sets comprehensively. Some Japanese cards are present in the database when they appear on eBay with consistent enough volume to compute reliable averages. Coverage is growing but not yet complete for Japanese exclusives.
Do you track sealed Pokemon product prices?
Our core focus is single cards. Sealed product tracking (booster boxes, ETBs, Pokemon Center exclusives) is on the roadmap but not yet live. For single-card prices the database covers more than 20,000 cards across every major English set.
How accurate are the prices?
Accuracy depends on sample size. A card with 30 sales in the last 30 days has a tight, reliable average. A card with 2 sales has wider uncertainty. We surface the sample size next to every price so you can judge how much to trust the number for any specific card.
Why does the same card show two different prices on different sites?
Different sites use different methodologies. TCGplayer market price is calculated from TCGplayer's marketplace, which skews toward retailers and slightly above eBay sold averages. Some sites use asking prices instead of sold. PokeMiner uses real eBay sold prices because they reflect actual peer-to-peer transactions, which is the closest thing to a true secondary market.
Is PokeMiner free to use?
Core pricing data, sold comp lookups, and basic collection tracking are free. Premium unlocks deeper tools including extended price history, PSA population data, AI market analysis, and portfolio analytics. The price you see on every card page is free.
Can I get price alerts when a Pokemon card moves?
Yes. Premium users can set price alerts on individual cards. When a card crosses a threshold you set, or moves by more than a percentage you specify, you get an email or push notification. Useful for tracking specific cards in your collection or watching for entry points on cards you want to buy.
