Overview

PriceCharting provides current and historic prices for video games, consoles, accessories, and other collectibles. Its collection tracker records owned items and their total value, and is integrated with browsing, search, and item details. Prices are updated daily using sources across the internet. For video games, the service combines sold listings from eBay and its marketplace to produce a value for each game and condition. Users can also buy and sell listed video games, trading cards, comics, coins, and toys. PriceCharting is available through Android and iOS apps and a browser-accessible web app. A free account includes collection tracking, a wishlist, monthly collection reports, marketplace access, and price search. Collector Sub is 6.00 USD per month; Legendary Sub is 49.00 USD per month and includes downloadable price lists and API access. API use is limited to one call per second, and CSV calls to one every 10 minutes. API and CSV data are licensed for internal use; third-party display or redistribution requires a commercial licence and written permission.
