Every number and button, in plain English.

Install it from the Chrome Web Store (the link is in your welcome email). Pin it so the icon stays in your toolbar: click the puzzle piece, then the pin next to Card Glance. Works in Chrome, Edge and Brave on a desktop or laptop.

Go to any card page on tcgplayer.com and click the icon. The panel opens on the right. First time only, paste the key from your welcome email and hit Activate. Keys look like CG-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX and work on two computers. Moving it is covered under Key, computers, billing.

After that it just follows you. Open a card, it reads it. Click to another card, it reads that one. Leave TCGplayer and it hangs on to the last card and your watchlist.

The search bar at the top of the panel looks through TCGplayer's own catalog, and it's built for the cards Google can't find: stamped, staff, prerelease and Prize Pack versions. Type and press Enter.

Type it the way you'd say it. "miraidon staff" finds the staff-stamped promo. "metang prerelease" finds the prerelease stamp. "pikachu ex 057 prize pack" goes straight to the Prize Pack set. "umbreon 161" or "sneasel 103" puts that card number at the top, even when the name has eighty printings. A promo code on its own works too ("swsh020"). Each result shows a picture of the card, its set and number, a tag like Staff, Prerelease, Prize Pack or JP for Japanese, then its market price, the cheapest copy with shipping (green when it's under market) and how many are listed. Click one and the page opens in the tab you're on, and the panel reads it.

When a name is spread across many sets, chips under the header let you narrow it: one tap for English or Japanese, or for one of the biggest sets. "Hide under $1" takes the bulk out of the list and stays set on this computer. The sort box switches between best match and price, high to low or low to high. The star on a row adds the card to your watchlist as Near Mint without opening it. Arrow keys walk the results and Enter opens one.

Search runs through TCGplayer, so it needs a tcgplayer.com tab open in the window; if there isn't one, you get an "Open TCGplayer" button. Escape or Close puts the panel back where it was. It's in beta: if a card you know exists doesn't come up, it probably isn't listed as its own product on TCGplayer, but tell us at support@cardglance.io.

The big number is TCGplayer's market price for the condition and printing that actually sells. The label next to it says which one, and when TCGplayer last updated it.

Below that: how the price moved over 90, 30 and 7 days, a little sparkline, and the 90-day range (lowest and highest market price in that window).

Then three sentences in plain English. Where market is and how it's moving. What people actually paid recently compared to market. How many are for sale and how fast they go. If you only read one thing in the panel, read these.

eBay sold

Opens eBay sold and completed listings for the card in a new tab, newest first. Once that tab is in front the panel reads it too. See eBay reads.

eBay listings

Opens eBay Buy It Now listings for the card. Ungraded, NM or LP, cheapest shipped first.

PriceCharting

Opens PriceCharting's page for the card in a new tab, with ungraded and graded prices (PSA 10, Grade 9 and so on). When a card has 1st Edition or Shadowless versions you get a short list to pick from. Card Glance doesn't read anything back from it.

Open all

All three at once: eBay sold and eBay listings side by side in one split view, PriceCharting in the tab next to them, grouped under the card's name so one click on the group collapses or closes them. On a Chrome older than 155 the three open as plain tabs.

Listings w/ photos

Reloads the TCGplayer page you're on showing only listings that have photos, all conditions. More under Listings with photos.

Clear filters

Reloads the page with no filters, and clears TCGplayer's "filtered to store" state if a Buy link left one behind.

Watch

Stars the card and saves today's price to your watchlist. Click again to unstar.

Copy image

Puts a picture of the card on your clipboard: price, trend, the read and every condition, without the Buy lines. See Copy image.

Refresh (the circle arrow)

Reads the page again now. The panel never refreshes by itself.

Gear

Opens your numbers plus a short note on where each figure comes from.

Every printing (Holofoil, Reverse Holofoil, 1st Edition, Unlimited) gets its own band with a Hide button. Under each band, one block per condition. NM, LP and MP show by default. HP and DMG sit behind a Show link at the bottom because most people don't need them. Every number in a block has a label.

Market

TCGplayer's market price for that condition, and how it moved over 30 days.

Median (sometimes Avg or Last sale)

The middle of the last three sales, or the average if there are only two, or the one sale if that's all there is. Compared to market: green means buyers paid more than market, red means less, "at market" means within a few percent.

Sold

The last three sales, newest first. A small plus means the buyer paid shipping on top.

Pace

How many sold in the last 90 days (shown as a rate when there are enough) and how many copies are listed right now in that condition. Click the listed count to see every one of those listings on the page, cheapest first.

Buy

Cheapest live listing with shipping included, plus the seller and their rating. Click the price and the page opens on that listing with the seller filtered in. If the seller is in orange they have a low rating or very few sales, so look before you buy. "Other-language skipped" means there were cheaper copies but the listing notes say Japanese, Korean or something else. "Graded skipped" means the cheaper copy was a graded slab (a CGC 7 listed as Near Mint, say), which is not the raw card the row prices. On sealed products, "partial skipped" means the cheaper listing was only part of the product (the sleeves, an opened box without packs) or priced far below every other copy. See Listings with photos for buying copies you can see first.

Some TCGplayer listings come with the seller's own photos of the exact card. For anything pricey, that's the copy you want to buy. Card Glance gives you two ways to get at them.

The quick way is the "Listings w/ photos" button under the card name. It reloads the page you're on with TCGplayer's own photo filter switched on, every condition, so you're looking at the same page with only photographed copies in the list. "Clear filters" next to it puts the page back.

The other way is the "Only listings with photos" switch under the gear. With it on, every Buy line in the panel shows the cheapest listing that has photos instead of the cheapest overall, tagged "photos". Your target and flip numbers follow that price. A condition with no photographed copies says "no listing with photos" and shows the cheapest without, so you can see what the photos are costing you. The panel reads the page again when you flip the switch, and it stays on until you turn it off.

Click the price on a photo listing and TCGplayer opens that listing's own page. The panel keeps working there: it reads the card the listing belongs to, and an "all listings" link next to the set name takes you back to the full product page.

TCGplayer's sales lists sometimes have a mis-listed item in them, or a different card sold under the same SKU, at a price nowhere near market. Card Glance leaves those out of the median. The sale shows struck through on the Sold line with an orange "ignored" count, and the read says so. That way a $6 sale on a $1,200 card doesn't drag the number you're comparing to.

If TCGplayer doesn't answer for part of a read (sales, listings, price history), an orange line under the read says which part and why. Those numbers will be missing from the rows below. Hit refresh to try again. Everything else in the read is still good.

The gear has three switches and a few fields. "Show the cheapest listing for sale" turns the Buy lines on and off. "Only listings with photos" is covered under Listings with photos. "Show buy target and flip read" adds two things to each Buy line: an "under target" tag when the cheapest listing is at or below your target, and a flip number.

Your target is a percentage of market, 85% by default. Flip is roughly what you'd clear if you bought the listing on the Buy line and sold at market, after the seller fee, the per-sale fee and your own shipping. The defaults are TCGplayer's published fees. Change them to yours. All of this is saved on your computer and applies to every card.

Under the fields, "Where the numbers come from" explains each figure in a sentence.

Counter offers, for shops. Set what you pay in cash and in trade credit as a share of market (say 60 and 70) and every condition row gets a line under its market price: Cash $320.79, Trade $374.26. It is worked from that condition's TCGplayer market, never the lowest listing, so a customer who sees the three sales behind the market understands the offer. Leave both at 0 to hide the line. Copy image includes it when it is on.

Hit Watch on a card and it's saved with the condition, market price, cheapest listing and the date. The Watchlist tab lists everything you've starred, newest first, with a count on the tab. Up to 50 cards. They live in your Chrome profile (and sync with it if Chrome sync is on), so they're on both your computers. Clearing cache, cookies or browsing data doesn't touch them. Uninstalling the extension does, so hit "Copy list" first if you ever remove it.

Click a card name to open its TCGplayer page in the current tab (middle-click or Ctrl-click for a new tab). "Set target" saves the price you'd buy at. When a card drops under its target it gets a green tag. "Remove" takes it off.

"Refresh" re-reads every watched card's market price and cheapest listing. It needs a tcgplayer.com tab open in the window to do that, and if there isn't one you get an "Open TCGplayer" button. After a refresh each row shows the change since you starred it. Sort by newest, biggest drop or under target first. "Copy list" copies the list as text.

Click eBay sold or eBay listings and the panel reads the eBay results page it opened, matching titles to the card you came from. It's marked beta because it depends on how eBay lays out its page. If eBay changes the layout this part stops working until we update it.

On a sold page you get the median of recent raw (ungraded) sales, compared to TCGplayer's NM market price. When enough listings say Near Mint, the NM median leads. You also get the all-raw range and average, and how many sales were graded. On a listings page you get the cheapest raw listing with shipping (click it to open), the next cheapest, and how that compares to TCGplayer's cheapest.

"Found" is how many results actually named this card. Lots, proxies, playsets and other languages get dropped. If only a couple match, there's a "Try the number only" link that searches again by card number alone.

Copy image puts a picture of the card on your clipboard: name and set, the market price and its label, the trend, the 90-day range, the three sentences, then every condition for every printing with its market, 30-day move, median of the last sales, the sales themselves, pace and how many are listed. The Buy lines are left out, so you are sharing a price, not a seller. A small Card Glance mark and the time it was read sit at the bottom. It uses the panel's own colors, so it comes out light or dark to match. Paste it straight into Discord, a text or a listing when someone asks "is this a good price?". Nothing is uploaded anywhere; the picture is drawn in the panel and copied.

The bottom of the panel shows your key (shortened), your plan and which computers it's on. A key works on two. "Rename" names this computer. "Manage" opens your key page on cardglance.io where you can drop a computer to free the slot. Any computer that hasn't been used in 60 days frees its slot on its own.

"Manage billing" opens Stripe to update your card or cancel. If you cancel, the key keeps working until the end of what you've paid for. "Remove key" signs this computer out. Theme follows your system setting unless you pick Light or Dark.

Lost your key? There's a form on the home page that re-sends it to the email you bought with.
