Press & Data Use
Riftbot tracks the Riftbound trading card market: source-linked recorded sales, active asking prices and per-grade summaries for the printings it covers. You are welcome to quote its figures, with attribution and a date.
How to cite Riftbot
Cite as Riftbot (riftbot.ai) and link to the specific card page you took the figure from. State the printing, language, grade, which measure you used and the time window it covers.
“A PSA 10 [card name] recorded a $X sale on [date], according to Riftbot’s tracked sales for that printing.”
What the data covers
- Recorded sales for tracked Riftbound printings, with a link to the original marketplace listing for each one.
- Raw and graded comparisons kept separate, including PSA, BGS and CGC results where they exist.
- Active asking prices — eBay listings and bids, and TCGplayer listing signals — labelled as asking prices, never as sales.
- English and Simplified Chinese printings treated as distinct products with separate markets.
- Weekly reports ranking the highest recorded graded card sales on eBay for each completed Monday–Sunday UTC week.
What it is not
Stating these alongside a figure keeps a story accurate, and we would rather be quoted correctly than quoted often.
- A complete checklist. Coverage is a filtered selection of Riftbound printings and products, and it varies by set, language and grade.
- Independently verified payments. Recorded sales are what a source reported; they are not audited transactions.
- Live quotes. Sales, listings and catalog estimates update at different times, and an item can sell or change price before it appears here.
- Appraisals, valuations or investment advice. A recorded sale describes one transaction, not what another copy will fetch.
For agents and machine readers
Every card page serves a Markdown representation at the same URL with an Accept: text/markdown header, carrying its canonical link, methodology link and source links. /llms.txt states the same scope and citation rules in full.
Assets and links
- Price methodology — how sales, listings and grades are compared.
- Weekly market reports — dated rankings with source links, suitable for quoting.
