Every card in DeckMaster can show a price. Here is what that price means, and what it does not.
Approximate market prices
The number you see is an approximate market price for a Near Mint copy, taken from public card-market data provided through TCGdex. It shows what cards like this have recently been listed or sold for, not what you would get from a particular buyer.
That is why every price has a small ≈ in front of it, and why we show the source and the date it was updated.
Prices in USD and BRL
The market data is in US dollars. To show reais, DeckMaster converts it with the daily exchange rate published by the Banco Central do Brasil (PTAX), using the latest business day. When the rate changes, the reais price changes too, even if the card did not.
Condition changes the number
A worn card is worth less than a Near Mint one. When you set a condition on a card, DeckMaster lowers the value shown and marks it as an estimate. Read about conditions in "Card conditions".
What a price cannot tell you
- What a friend or shop will actually pay.
- The effect of your card's language, edition or special print.
- Shipping, fees or taxes if you sell.
- What will happen tomorrow. Prices move up and down.
When there is no price
New cards, rare promos and unusual versions may not have a price yet. Then DeckMaster says "no price yet" instead of guessing.
Using prices for trades
Use prices as a starting point for a friendly chat. A fair trade is one both people are happy with. See "How to trade cards safely".
Your collection value
The total for your collection is the sum of the estimates. It is great for seeing the trend over time. It is not an appraisal and should not be used as one for insurance or sales.
