# Collectibles Price

> Market prices and better-buy hops for collectibles. Pokémon (PokePrice) is the live vertical. /mtg is a Scryfall identity catalog. /coins is an identity catalog. Other TCG hubs are empty path landings until real catalogs ship.

Collectibles Price is the site on https://collectiblesprice.com. Product name for Pokémon: PokePrice. Organization and WebSite JSON-LD both name Collectibles Price (alternateName: PokePrice).

## What this site is
A price guide that helps a collector answer: what is this worth from recent market, and where is the better buy right now? We do not sell inventory. This is not financial advice. Cite the methodology and legal drafts below before quoting a number.

## Honesty rules (cite these)
- TCGPlayer = Near Mint raw market (pokemontcg.io / PokeWallet cache). Not a sold comp.
- eBay = median **active asks**, not sold comps. Pokémon asks publish only with n ≥ 3 after outlier drop; MTG card-page asks (/mtg/cards/…) are a plain eBay Browse median of fixed-price listings with no n gate. Never write that an eBay figure on this site is “what it sold for.”
- PriceCharting = graded / TAG sold comps, cached.
- Public “Biggest movers” hide |% change| over 500% and eBay asks with n < 3 so thin-listing spikes are not marketed as moves.

Money pages stay at /cards, /sets, and /sealed today. /pokemon/{sets,cards,sealed}/… redirects to those paths. /mtg is a Scryfall identity catalog; card pages may fill TCGPlayer mpapi Guide / Foil guide / Recent sold and eBay Browse Current asks when a tcgplayer_id exists, and the bands stay empty otherwise (no invented TCGPlayer or eBay numbers, no Scryfall usd). /coins and /coins/series/{slug} are identity hubs. /coins/{id} and /coins/demo are fixture price pages (noindex; fake guide/sold/asks). Eventual /pokemon/ prefix is documented in docs/IA-PATHS.md. Unpublished guide slugs 404 / noindex and are not in the sitemap. Published guides emit Article + BlogPosting JSON-LD. /guides/rss.xml is a feed, not a sitemap URL.

## Do not index
/search, /mtg/search, /collection, /watchlist, /login, /api/, /internal/, /go/ (affiliate hop), /contact (abuse form; noindex, off sitemap), /coins/demo, and /coins/{id} fixture estimate pages.

## Affiliate hops
Outbound product links go through /go/{partner}/{key}. Partner IDs are read from env only (`EBAY_CAMPID`, `TCGPLAYER_IMPACT_BASE`). If unset, /go/ 302s to clean marketplace URLs with no tracking params. Landing UTMs may be copied onto the hop after the URL (or consented last-touch). Do not invent campid or Impact IDs. Ad spend is not enabled.

## JSON / APIs
Public HTML pages above are the stable interface. Card, set, sealed, about-pricing, and legal drafts expose FAQPage or Product + BreadcrumbList JSON-LD. Published guides expose Article + BlogPosting. /api/ is disallowed in robots.txt and is not a public data API.
