Make the demo useful

One card. One collection.
One complicated sale.

Ask every vendor to work through the same situations. A repeatable demonstration tells you more than a feature list alone.

Get the full buying checklist
  1. 01

    Find the exact printing

    Use two cards with the same name. Check set, number, finish, language, condition, quantity and physical location.

  2. 02

    Buy a small collection

    Inspect the cards, record a cash or credit offer and follow the acquired stock into inventory.

  3. 03

    Recover an awkward checkout

    Park a basket, come back to it and return one item. Ask how stock, credit, permissions and receipts stay connected.

Compare your shortlist.
