How to sell graded Pokemon cards on Shopify.

Read the certificate number directly from the physical slab. Keep it as text so leading zeroes are not lost in a spreadsheet. Record the grader alongside it: a PSA number and a TAG number belong to different certificate systems.

Compare the returned certificate details with the slab in hand. Check the card name, label, grade and available images. A certificate lookup supports your record; it does not, by itself, establish the authenticity or condition of an item someone has offered you.

In Cardberry, import a supported PSA or TAG Pokemon certificate to retrieve available evidence. For an illustrated walkthrough, see PSA to Shopify. Resolve a wrong or incomplete record before preparing a listing.

Two cards with the same Pokemon name can belong to different sets, languages, editions or finishes. Match the set, collector number, language and exact variant to the label and the card. Then confirm the grading company and grade separately.

A useful title identifies what the buyer is getting. For example, a seller might use “Charizard ex 199/165 — Pokemon 151 — English — PSA 10” when every part is supported by that slab’s evidence. Do not add “first edition,” a finish or another distinction unless it applies to that printing.

Cardberry looks for a catalog match automatically. Only an accepted catalog match drives artwork, pricing or a Shopify listing. If you need to correct the identity, use the full Cardberry workspace; do not approve a close-looking match just to finish the listing.

Photograph the front and back of the individual slab, with its label readable. Include close-ups of case scratches, chips, scuffs or other visible details a buyer should know about. Use even light and check that glare does not hide the card or certificate.

Available grader photos can be a useful starting point. Confirm that they show the right certificate and represent the item’s current condition. Catalog artwork can help identify the printing, but should not be the only image of a one-off slab listing.

Review the media in the product preview. Add any missing condition photos in Shopify, and check their order and descriptions there before publishing. When you have several copies of a card, avoid accidentally reusing one slab’s photos for another certificate.

Compare evidence for the same printing, grader and grade. Check when the price was observed and whether it reflects an asking price, sale or estimate. A different grade or language may be a poor comparison even when the card name matches.

Set your asking price after considering acquisition cost, selling fees, packaging and shipping you will cover. An available market estimate is not a guaranteed sale price, and missing data is not a zero valuation.

Cardberry uses exact-grade USD pricing when data is available. Review that estimate and your pricing policy, or save a USD listing price when no estimate exists. Check the final product price in the preview. Shopify listing sync currently requires a store using USD.

A listing for one physical slab normally has one unit available. Choose the Shopify inventory location where you actually keep it, and check the stock before publishing. Two slabs of the same card and grade still have different certificate numbers, photos and potentially different costs.

Search existing inventory before creating another product. If a possible duplicate appears, compare the certificate, grader, grade and exact printing. Reuse a product only when it represents that same slab. A similar title is not enough.

Cardberry presents possible duplicates for review before sync. If a request is interrupted, return to the slab and check its current sync status before trying again. Verify the resulting Shopify product instead of creating another product manually while the first operation may still be running.

If you sell the slab elsewhere, reconcile your Shopify stock before another customer can buy it. Do not assume Cardberry manages inventory across other marketplaces.

Before the first sync, review store settings: inventory location, category, collections and publication choices. In Cardberry, new products default to draft. Review and approve the product changes, then inspect the resulting draft in Shopify.

• Title and description match the certificate, printing and grade.
• Photos show this slab, including the back and visible case condition.
• Price and stock reflect your decision and the item you hold.
• Category, collections, inventory location and publication choices are correct.
• Your shipping and returns information is clear and the product reads well on mobile.

Publish when the listing is ready. Later Cardberry syncs preserve merchant-managed content and publication choices. For the broader inventory and review flow, see how Cardberry works.
