Inventory Sync

Hoard’s agent exports your full TCGplayer inventory as a CSV and uploads it to the Hoard server on a schedule you control.

​
What gets synced

Every sync captures your complete seller inventory:
  • Card name, set, condition, printing (foil/non-foil)
  • Your current listed price
  • TCG Market Price and TCG Low Price
  • Quantity in stock
  • TCGplayer product IDs

​
How syncing works

1. Agent polls Hoard server       "Should I sync?"
2. Server responds                "Yes" (based on your schedule)
3. Agent opens TCGplayer           Seller Portal → Pricing → Export
4. Agent downloads inventory CSV   Your full pricing export
5. Agent uploads to Hoard          Gzipped CSV via API
6. Hoard processes the data        Matches cards, calculates prices
7. Hoard generates price updates   Based on your pricing strategy
8. Agent downloads updates         CSV of new prices
