I went looking for a site that could tell me which Pokémon cards are actually worth buying. Price guides everywhere, recommendations nowhere. So I built one that treats cards like stocks: 29M+ historical price points across 17,000+ cards power a composite investment score for every card, ranked leaderboards filterable by budget, full price history, and a grading calculator that nets out fees. Prices are real European market values. Scores and leaderboards are free.
I come from trading, and when I got into Pokemon cards as an investment I went looking for the obvious thing: a site that could tell me which cards are actually worth buying. Price guides everywhere, recommendations nowhere. Nobody could answer the simple question, is this card a good investment or not.
So I built TCGinvest.io. It treats Pokemon cards like stocks: we sit on about 29 million historical price points across 17,000+ cards, and the platform uses that data to rate every card. Each one gets a composite investment score from liquidity, scarcity, era and market friction, ranked leaderboards you can filter by budget, full price history, and a grading calculator that nets out the fees before telling you if grading a card even makes sense. Prices are real European market values from Cardmarket, not converted US numbers.
Everything that matters is free: the scores, the leaderboards, the calculator, the history. Pro adds alerts and projections for bigger collections.
One thing the data taught me that surprised even me: of the 10.8 million graded copies in the PSA population reports we track, 32% of everything PSA has ever graded is a perfect 10. And grading loses money on most cards under 100 euros once fees are in.
Ask me anything about the data, the scoring methodology, or building this solo. Brutal feedback welcome, that's how it got built.
