The podium
— top 3 by community votesLudex
Fastest multi-game scanner with strong portfolio analytics; subscription-priced but built for investors tracking value over time.
TCGplayer
Official app with marketplace-backed prices; the most trustworthy numbers because they come straight from live listings and sales.
PriceCharting
Less of a scanner, more the price-history bible; best for checking graded vs raw comps before you buy or sell.
Collectr
Clean collection tracker that blends TCGplayer and PriceCharting data; great for portfolio value, can lag on brand-new sets.
eBay (sold listings)
Not an app feature per se, but filtering completed/sold listings is still the ground-truth sanity check every collector should run.
Misprint
Community-driven scanner and marketplace; handy for error/misprint hunters and getting a second pricing opinion.
CardPriceIQ
Newer entrant that tested highest for raw scan accuracy across Pokemon, MTG and sports; pricing depth still maturing.
