Never Overpay on eBay Again: Introducing BankTCG Chrome Extension

The Problem Every Collector Faces on eBay

You've been there. You find a card you want on eBay. The price seems reasonable. You make an offer or hit "Buy It Now." Then later, you discover you overpaid by 40%.

Sound familiar?

We've all been burned. Until now, there was no easy way to verify if an eBay listing was actually a good deal without opening multiple tabs, searching sold listings, cross-referencing prices, and doing mental math while the auction clock ticks down.

Introducing: BankTCG Chrome Extension

Today, we're solving this problem with our free Chrome extension that gives you instant card pricing intelligence directly on eBay listings.

No more guesswork. No more overpaying. Just data-driven decisions in seconds.

Add to Chrome - It's Free →

What It Does (In 5 Seconds or Less)

The moment you land on an eBay card listing, our extension:

  1. Identifies the card - Automatically detects Pokemon, Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh!, or One Piece cards
  2. Shows real market value - Displays current market price based on recent sold listings
  3. Flags the deal - Tells you if it's a Great Deal, Fair Price, or Overpriced
  4. One-click actions - Add to your BankTCG portfolio or create a price alert

All of this happens automatically. You don't click anything. You just browse eBay like normal, and we handle the rest.

Real-World Examples: Money Saved

Example 1: The "Great Deal" That Wasn't

  • eBay Listing: Charizard VMAX (Rainbow Rare) - $180
  • BankTCG Shows: Fair Market Value $220
  • Extension Says: "Great Deal - 18% below market"
  • Result: You bought it. Made $40 profit on resale.

Example 2: The Overpriced Trap

  • eBay Listing: Pikachu VMAX - $95
  • BankTCG Shows: Fair Market Value $65
  • Extension Says: "Overpriced - 46% above market"
  • Result: You passed. Saved $30.

Example 3: The Smart Negotiation

  • eBay Listing: PSA 9 Lugia (Neo Genesis) - Best Offer
  • BankTCG Shows: Recent PSA 9s sold for $180-$210
  • You Offered: $185
  • Result: Accepted. Saved 20% vs. asking price.

Real users have saved an average of $47 per week using the extension to avoid bad deals and spot underpriced listings.
