How values are calculated

The order PCVault uses to pick a card's value and the labels it shows.

1. 1The value order

   Your own value always wins. Next comes Card Ladder or market data, depending on your value mode. The market value is raised to the last sold price when that is higher. If neither exists, PCVault uses Card Ladder comps, then the value from your import, then an estimate.

2. 2Read the source

   Each value names its source: Owner, Card Ladder, Market, Last sale, eBay asks, Imported value, Card Ladder comps or Estimated.

3. 3Estimated values

   Estimated means the value comes from related cards such as sibling parallels. Set your own value or sync Card Ladder to replace it.

4. 4When there is no value

   A card can show Pending, No market match, Needs review or Value not available until it is matched or you set a value.
