Settings
The Settings page has four tabs. Here’s what each one does and when you’d change things. Go to Settings from the gear icon in the dashboard header, or from the “Settings” link in Hoard Desktop.Sync
Sync frequency
How often the agent checks in and syncs. Options: every 4 hours (default), 8, 12, or 24 hours. The agent must be running on your computer for syncs to happen. If it’s off during a scheduled sync, it picks up on the next check-in.Product lines
Choose which games show up on your dashboard. Hoard pins games already detected in your inventory, keeps the common games close at hand, and gives you a search box for the longer TCGplayer game list. You can also choose which product groups Hoard is allowed to reprice. Unchecked games still sync and stay visible, but Hoard does not touch their prices. Sealed products and accessories have separate toggles.Auto-sync toggle
Turn automatic syncing on or off. When off, the agent stays connected but won’t start sync cycles on its own. You can still trigger a manual sync with the Sync Now button anytime.Import historical data
Three import controls for pulling in older data from TCGplayer:- Orders — pick a start year (2020 or later) and the agent backfills your order history in yearly chunks
- Feedback — pulls all your buyer feedback ratings
- Sales — pick how many months back (up to 24) and the agent backfills monthly sales reports
Pricing
Presets
Three one-click starting points:- Match & Hold — 20% markup, $1.00 floor, never lower prices ON. Competitive but protective.
- Volume — 0% markup, $0.49 floor, low + shipping source, floor-aware at 95%, change caps on. For high-volume stores.
- Liquidation — 0% markup, $0.25 floor, floor-aware at 95%. Aggressive, for clearing stock.
Price source
Which TCGplayer price to use as the base for all calculations. Market Price (default) uses the volume-weighted average of recent sales. Low + Shipping uses the lowest current listing. See Price source for details.Price markup
Percentage above your chosen price source. Options: 0% to 50%.Custom listing price updates
Whether Hoard includes your TCGplayer photo listings and custom listings in pricing. On by default. Turn off if you have graded or specialty listings with manually set prices you don’t want Hoard to touch.Never lower prices
When on, prices only go up. Protects against temporary market dips, bot-driven crashes, and fire sales by other sellers. Turn off for liquidation strategies.Minimum card price (floor)
The lowest price Hoard will set for any card. Default $1.00. The floor keeps low-value cards at a price that covers your time and shipping, and makes your store attractive for TCGplayer’s cart optimizer (which routes buyers to sellers who can fill orders efficiently).Lowest listing awareness
When enabled, Hoard prices near the lowest competitor listing instead of undercutting it when your formula would put you below the floor. Ignores suspicious listings below 50% of market to filter out bots. Adjust the floor factor (default 95%) to control how close to the lowest listing you price.Sales velocity
When enabled, cards that sell quickly get a small price bump (fast sellers), and cards sitting for a long time get a small reduction (stale prices). Both toggles are independent. See Velocity pricing.Price change safety
Caps how much any card’s price can change per sync. Separate caps for cards above and below $5. Choose hold (skip the change entirely) or clamp (limit to the max percentage). Off by default. See Price change safety.Shipping rules
Set your tracking threshold (the dollar amount above which you ship with tracking) and an optional shipping cost adder that bakes tracked shipping into the price for high-value cards.Card group rules
Per-card pricing rules created from bookmarked searches. Each rule has its own multiplier and never-go-down setting. Rules are evaluated top to bottom, first match wins. Drag to reorder. See the bookmark and pricing rule tutorial for a walkthrough.Account
