I built a free card-comp tool for Australian collectors — looking for honest feedback

Hey everyone, I’m Aaron.

I built CardScope AU because I kept seeing US prices used as the benchmark here, even though they don’t always translate cleanly to the Australian market. Once currency conversion, international postage, GST and—for graded cards—the costs of grading and return postage are taken into account, the real cost for Australian collectors can be different.

CardScope AU lets you:

  • Scan a Pokémon card or search using its name and card number
  • Confirm the exact printing before checking prices
  • View current eBay Australia asking prices in AUD
  • Keep available completed sales separate from seller asking prices
  • Compare raw cards or select a grading company and grade
  • Adjust the target percentage for buying or trading
  • Optionally save cards to a collection or create private comp lists

It’s free to use in your mobile browser, and you don’t need an account unless you want to save anything.

It’s still early, so I’m looking for honest feedback—especially about scan accuracy, missing cards, confusing parts of the results or anything that would make it more useful during an actual buy or trade.

The prices are evidence rather than a guaranteed value. Condition, the exact printing and the available sales still matter.

Full disclosure: I built the site.

I combined my keyboard and mouse pickers into one setup site... does the result actually make sense?

I originally built separate keyboard and mouse sites. A friend pointed out they should probably be one site... which was fair.

So I combined them, added headsets and ended up with Pick My Setup.

You answer a few practical questions about how you use the device, size, shape, budget, ergonomics and the features you actually need. It gives you one main pick and four different alternatives, then explains why it chose them.

It currently compares 558 products. You do not need an account to use it. There are affiliate links on some results, but they do not affect the rankings.

The main thing I want to know is whether it actually gives you a sensible result. If it gets something wrong, tell me what it was... that is more useful than being polite about it.

I built it, so I am obviously biased about the website itself. I just want the recommendations to hold up.
