Sports card scanner

Scan both sides. Know the parallel, the serial number and the price.

A sports card's value hides in the details: a refractor, a /99, an autograph. BinderTrax reads the front and the back together and prices the card from its most recent completed sales.

Front and back, read together

The back is where the year, set and number live.

Everything printed on the card

Photograph both sides. BinderTrax reads the player, year, set and card number, the parallel, the serial number and print run, and whether the card is an autograph, a rookie, memorabilia or a short print.

Parallels named the way they are printed

Each parallel is its own catalog entry and shows its print run, like Green Refractor /99. When the catalog does not list the parallel on your card, BinderTrax names it from what it read.

A stack in one photo

Switch Multi-Scan to Sports, lay out a handful of cards and take one picture. Each card in the frame is boxed and named.

Graded slabs too

Price

Priced from what it actually sold for

Recent sales, not an old average.

The latest completed sales

The price is the middle of the five most recent completed sales for that card and parallel. Best Offer sales are left out, because their listed price is not the price that was paid.

Sold prices by grade

For cards you own, see completed sales grade by grade. A grade with no sales says so, rather than showing a number nobody paid.

—Questions

Sports scanner questions

Do I have to scan the back of the card?
By default, yes: the year, set and card number are usually on the back, so reading both sides is what pins down the exact card. You can switch to front-only scans in settings.
How is the price worked out?
From the five most recent completed sales of that card and parallel, taking the middle one, with Best Offer sales left out.
Does it handle numbered parallels and autographs?
Yes. It reads the parallel, the serial number and print run, and whether the card is autographed, a rookie or a short print.
Which sports are covered?
Baseball, basketball, football, hockey and soccer, among others, with checklists built from the manufacturers' own.
