HoshinoEvery move in the card business.
One terminal.
Scan a card and Hoshino shows what it truly sells for across seven regions, where the cross-border spread is, whether it is worth grading, and what your whole inventory is worth — net of every fee. Then it watches the whole world for you, and taps you on the shoulder when money appears.
One photo unlocks the whole market.
Point your camera at a card or drop in a photo. Hoshino resolves the exact card — set, number and variant — then opens its real market, everywhere, on the next screen.
- Camera or photo. No SKU typing, no set-symbol guesswork.
- Exact match. The precise card, set and collector number — not a fuzzy name search handing you ten look-alikes.
- Then the world opens. Every region's sold price, the spread and the grade math in one tap.
Real sold prices. Never asking prices.
An asking price is a wish. Hoshino shows the median a card actually cleared for in each market, side by side, so you price against reality — not the most optimistic listing on the internet.
- Sold, not listed. Every number is a completed sale, recency-weighted so stale comps fade.
- Region by region. US, Japan, Europe, China, Korea, Taiwan and SEA, lined up together.
- One honest median. No cherry-picked highs — the number you act on is the number that holds.
Buy in Japan. Sell in the US.
Know the spread.
This is the edge. Hoshino compares every buy-market against every sell-market and shows the gap that actually lands in your pocket — after marketplace fees, shipping and live FX. Not the gross difference on the screen. The take-home.
- Net, not gross. Roughly 10–13% fees, shipping and live FX come off before a spread ever shows.
- Every pair, both ways. All seven regions checked in every direction.
- Live FX baked in. A yen swing never turns a winner into a loss.
Should you grade it? A number, not a shrug.
Grading ties up cash and weeks of turnaround. Hoshino computes expected profit in dollars across every major grader — so you only send the cards that pay you back.
- Dollars, not adjectives. A real EV per grader, after fees — the call an operator can act on.
- PSA · CGC · BGS · SGC. Compared on real graded sold comps, pop-report gem rates and 2026 fees.
- Never a dead end. Every scan returns a decision, even on thin comps.

Set a rule on any card and Hoshino watches every market on earth for it — while you sleep, in every currency, at every grade. The moment something matches, you know.
- Your rule, not a firehose. Card, grade, region, platform and a price ceiling — fires on that and nothing else.
- The whole message is the decision. "12% under the global median." Buy or pass.
A new listing, anywhere on earth
A grail surfaces on Mercari Japan at 3am your time — your alert doesn't sleep. New-listing rules watch every platform we track, in every country, the moment inventory lands.
Deals under the world's sold median

Price drops and fresh solds
Watch a card you want dip below your ceiling, or hear the moment new sold comps land on cards you hold — the sell signal most collectors get weeks late.
Filtered to exactly your hunt
Grade — raw, PSA 10, PSA 9, BGS, CGC. Country or region. Platform. Price ceiling. A rule fires on your card, in your grade, in your market, under your price — and nothing else.
