The global source of truth for what cards are worth
Built to be the Bloomberg of collectibles: every real-world sale, from every platform on earth, in one place.
Who we are
Hoshino aggregates real sold prices and live ask prices from every major card marketplace in the world — eBay, TCGPlayer, CardMarket, PSA auction houses, and Asia-native platforms no Western service has covered (Ruten, Bunjang, Mercari JP, Snkrdunk, Magi, Yahoo Auctions JP, Kleinanzeigen DE, Fril JP, and more).
When you see a price on Hoshino, it came from a real transaction — not an algorithm, not a guess. When we don’t have enough data to quote honestly, we say so.
The numbers
Live as of 2026-08-23, pulled from the production database at render time.
| Cards in catalog | 349,572+ |
| Games covered | 19 (Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Flesh and Blood, Dragon Ball, Digimon, F1, Sports, and more) |

The sold-comp count covers only cards with audited real-transaction data today. We show nothing we cannot verify — a missing price beats a fabricated one.
Why it matters
The collectibles industry has no Bloomberg. Price discovery is fragmented across 20+ platforms, three continents, and five languages. A Charizard sells for $400 on eBay and ¥180,000 on Yahoo Auctions JP in the same hour — and nobody knew.
Hoshino fixes that. One honest, real-time, global number per card. Deep-linked to every live listing so you can buy at the source.
