For a while we have displayed the best offer prices for sold listings. Not just the listed price, but the actual price the item sold for.
We have made an update to make that much more clear to users.
You can now see the original price and the best offer accepted price next to each other. The original price will be crossed out.

Hi my collection dropped 12k in one day today, was just wondering if there was a reason? I was thinking perhaps it had to do with the price charting integration. Thanks!
Hi I meant TCG player integration in the other comment. Thanks!
@anonymous - Yes, it probably does relate to TCGPlayer update. Thanks for your feedback on this.
For common cards, we believe the values with TCGPlayer sales data gives you a more accurate value for your cards and your collection. The prices on eBay will usually include shipping costs which inflates the value of those cards to a higher value then they really are. Yes, this change will have an impact on your card and collection values, but we feel it will be a more accurate value.
my collection as well lost 20k overnight due to this correction. Instead of forcing this upon users, can we give them a choice to opt into the new pricing algorithm? Can you FORK the old algorithm and allow users to choose between the two?
@anonymous - Sorry for any problem. This is most likely caused by TCGPlayer sales data and value changes on common cards. The new values are more accurate, but there is a value change on collections with lots of common cards. https://blog.pricecharting.com/2025/12/tcgplayer-sales-data-has-been-added.html
