About
A portfolio terminal for sports card collectors.
CollectibleIQ exists because sports cards are a real financial asset class and the tools collectors use don't treat them that way. Most card apps are hobby checklists or scan-and-post marketplaces. None of them tell you your real profit after every eBay fee, every promoted-listing cost, and every shipping label you paid for.
We built CollectibleIQ for the collector who treats their collection like a portfolio — tracking cost basis on every card, reconciling every sale against fees and taxes, and generating the Schedule D and 1099-K reports their accountant asks for in April. It's software for people who want the truth about whether they're actually making money on cards.
We also publish the most complete interactive release checklists on the web — every parallel, every pack odds number, every SKU availability note — because figuring out what you pulled and what it's worth starts with getting the checklist right.

We ship often, read every piece of user feedback, and reserve roughly half our roadmap for what early users tell us to build next. Contact us at hello@collectibleiq.com.
Data sources
Where our numbers come from.
Trust in a financial tool starts with sourcing. Every number in CollectibleIQ traces back to one of four inputs, and we don't guess or estimate when we don't have the data.
Topps official odds sheets
Every pack odds number, every parallel print run, and every SKU availability note in our interactive checklists comes directly from the manufacturer's published odds sheet — never inferred or crowdsourced.
Beckett enrichment
Card-level metadata — rookie flags, subset classifications, player disambiguation — is cross-referenced against Beckett's checklist data and normalized into our canonical catalog.
eBay Transaction Reports
Cost basis and sales data flow from CSVs you export out of eBay Seller Hub. We parse gross sale price, final value fee (12.9%), payment processing, promoted listing fees, shipping labels, and refunds — the complete fee stack that determines your real P&L.
User-submitted costs
Purchase price, shipping in, sales tax, and grading fees are added by the collector at entry or via import. Cost basis is never guessed — it's what you actually paid, tracked to the penny in integer cents.

FAQ
Common questions.
The answers below are the same ones we'd give in an email. If something isn't covered, reach out directly.
What is CollectibleIQ?
CollectibleIQ is SaaS portfolio-tracking software for sports card collectors and dealers. It tracks cost basis, calculates real P&L after every eBay fee, and generates tax-ready reports. It also publishes the most complete interactive checklists on the web — every parallel, every pack odds number, every SKU availability note — sourced directly from manufacturer odds sheets.
How does CollectibleIQ calculate P&L?
Cost basis is purchase price plus shipping in, sales tax, grading fees, platform fees, payment fees, and any consignment fees or adjustments. Net proceeds is sale amount minus final value fee, payment processing, and shipping out. Profit is net proceeds minus cost basis, and ROI is profit divided by cost basis. Every value is computed as integer cents — never floating-point — so your numbers are accurate to the penny.
Is CollectibleIQ free?
Yes, there is a free tier that covers up to 50 cards and 1 CSV import per month. Pro is $19 per month and includes 2,000 cards, 10 imports per month, tax reports, and analytics. Premium is $29 per month and removes all limits. Every new signup gets a 30-day Pro trial with no credit card required.
Where does the checklist data come from?
Every checklist is sourced directly from the manufacturer's official odds sheet and checklist PDF — Topps for Chrome and flagship products — then enriched with Beckett's player and subset data. Serial numbers, pack odds, and SKU availability (Hobby vs Jumbo vs Mega vs Value) are verified against the published odds sheet on release day. We do not crowdsource checklists.
Which sports does CollectibleIQ support?
The tracker supports any sport or category — baseball, football, basketball, hockey, soccer, racing, Pokemon, and non-card items like wax, memorabilia, and equipment. Our interactive public checklists currently focus on Topps Chrome Football with additional Topps releases rolling out through 2026.
How does CollectibleIQ handle grading costs?
Grading fees are a transaction type in the financial engine. When you submit a card to PSA, BGS, CGC, or SGC, you log a grading transaction with the service cost, shipping to the grader, and return shipping. Those costs roll into the card's cost basis automatically, so when it sells the P&L reflects the full out-of-pocket spend.
How does CollectibleIQ help with 1099-K reconciliation?
eBay issues a 1099-K for gross sales above the federal threshold. CollectibleIQ's 1099-K reconciliation report compares what eBay reported as gross proceeds against your actual taxable income after fees, shipping, and refunds. The gap between the 1099-K number and your Schedule D number is usually thousands of dollars for active sellers — we show you that gap line by line.
Who built CollectibleIQ?
CollectibleIQ is built by a small independent team. We started it because existing collection-tracking apps treat cards like a hobby checklist rather than a portfolio — and none of them calculated the real P&L a seller sees after eBay takes its cut.
