The Daily Tape
Which Pokémon cards actually sell every single day. We count every recorded eBay sale across the market's ~500 busiest cards over the trailing 30 days and rank the tape: real sold counts, not listing counts. The inaugural deep dive is here.

Methodology
Universe: the union of the 300 highest active-listing counts and the 300 highest market values in the Moonstone market cache, capped at 500 cards, re-selected each week. For each card we pull its recorded eBay sales feed (dated, per grade) and count sales landing in the trailing 30 full UTC days. Recorded sales are the comp tape used to price the market: graded sales and price-relevant raw sales; low-value bulk under-counts, which is why a 3,000-listing common can honestly show zero. Medians are the middle recorded sale in the window across all grades. Nothing is modeled.
