eBay Price Guide

A new price tracking tool designed and launched, specifically tailored for trading card enthusiasts.

Overview

Have you ever wondered how much your old Pokemon cards were worth?

I designed a new feature allowing customers to view real-time market values of their trading cards on eBay for the first time.

  • Role

    Responsible for end to end product design.

  • Team

    1 designer, 1 product managers 5+ engineers.

  • Timeline

    2022 - 2023 with initial launch and subsequent iterations.

The Problem

Finding out how much cards were worth on eBay was a very laborious, manual process. Secondly, eBay was losing to the competition due to data quality issues.

What we knew

  • Specific search patterns

    Customers rely on a search-based workflow, browsing from broad to narrow query to better understand specific card value.

  • Untrustworthy

    eBay market data is perceived as untrustworthy due to poor matches to searches and “fake listings”.

  • Market volatility

    Trading card prices fluctuate rapidly, so understanding and being able to track these changes is significant.

  • User personas are fluid

    Trading card customers buy and sell on eBay, highlighting the need for relevant metrics and transaction opportunities.

Solution and outcomes

Designed and delivered a price tracking tool that aggregates and displays past eBay transaction data in a trustworthy, digestible, and actionable way.
