Frequently Asked Questions
How do you detect buyouts?
We monitor seller counts and price movements daily. When inventory drops significantly while prices spike, our algorithm flags it as a potential buyout using our ISF (Inventory Spike Formula).
What causes card buyouts?
Common triggers include streamer exposure, new set synergies, Reserved List speculation, and artificial scarcity from coordinated buying groups.
How do you distinguish real buyouts from organic demand?
We track seller inventory levels and velocity to show status badges: Almost Gone, Low Stock, Dropping, Available, or Plenty. This helps distinguish real buyouts from organic demand growth.
