TCGQuickShip vs. Hoard

TCGQuickShip and Hoard both cover scanning, pricing, listing, picking, and shipping. The biggest differences are how cards reach TCGplayer, whether listed prices get updated, which marketplaces each supports, and who buys postage.

By Christopher Neale, Founder at Hoard Updated Sep 27, 2026

Hoard fits a seller whose sales are mostly on TCGplayer and who wants new listings and price changes uploaded to TCGplayer without handling a CSV file each time. TCGQuickShip fits a seller who also lists on eBay or ManaPool, who wants to buy postage in the same tool, or who wants to start on a free plan.

What TCGQuickShip's site says it does

Scanning

TCGQuickShip's homepage says a seller can drop in scanner images or phone photos, up to 500 a batch, and that it "reads the name, set, collector number and finish, matches the exact TCGplayer SKU." The homepage lists ten games. Its card-scanning documentation lists six games in the scanning beta: Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon, One Piece, Disney Lorcana, Riftbound, and the Gundam Card Game. The same page says the beta supports English cards only and one card per image. It also states: "Condition and grading are not read from the image." Condition is a batch default that the seller can change for each card.

Listing on TCGplayer

TCGQuickShip's listing documentation states: "TCGplayer has no listing API. Committing designates the batch's cards to TCGplayer. You then download the CSV from the TCGplayer Listings page in Quick Ship and upload it on TCGplayer yourself." The same page lists ManaPool and eBay as direct listing destinations. Under "Not Supported Yet," it lists "Re-pricing cards you've already listed on eBay or TCGplayer."

TCGplayer orders and shipping

TCGQuickShip's TCGplayer integration documentation describes order import by file. The seller downloads packing slips from TCGplayer as a PDF and uploads the PDF to Quick Ship. After buying labels, the seller exports a tracking CSV from Quick Ship and uploads it on TCGplayer's Import Tracking page.

TCGQuickShip buys and prints USPS postage. Its pricing page lists a monthly allowance of no-fee labels: 50 on Standard, 150 on Pro, and 300 on Business. The Free plan has no allowance. Beyond the allowance, labels cost $0.12 plus postage. Every plan can also connect the seller's own EasyPost account. The homepage describes an interactive picker with card images, smart sorting, and a running count.

Other marketplaces and plans

The homepage lists eBay, ManaPool, TCGplayer, CardSphere, and Shopify. The pricing page lists one-click order sync for eBay, ManaPool, and CardNexus, and says Shopify connections are still rolling out. The plans are Free ($0), Standard ($10 a month or $105 a year, with a 30-day trial), Pro ($20 a month or $210 a year), and Business ($40 a month or $420 a year).

TCGQuickShip's homepage list includes Star Wars: Unlimited, which Hoard's scan matching does not cover. The homepage list does not include either Dragon Ball game.

Where TCGQuickShip is the better fit

TCGQuickShip has a Free plan. It includes manual batches, packing slips, label buying, and card scanning while scanning is in beta. A seller can try scan intake without paying.

TCGQuickShip lists directly on eBay and ManaPool. Hoard lists and reprices on TCGplayer only. A seller who splits sales across those marketplaces can manage listings in one tool.

TCGQuickShip buys USPS postage inside the same tool that scans and picks. Hoard sends shipping to a separate ShippingEasy or Pirate Ship account.

What Hoard measures and publishes

On controlled test sets, Hoard's matcher picked the correct card first for 175 of 175 Yu-Gi-Oh scans and 97% of 401 Magic scans. In production, two stores added 2,236 scanned cards to staging in September 2026. Sellers kept Hoard's first suggestion for 84.7% of those cards.

Across 26,691 orders in completed pull queues from five stores between May and September 2026, the median pull time was 75.65 seconds per order. The visual pull case study reports one $3M-a-year TCGplayer store whose One Piece pulls fell from 210 seconds to 75 seconds per order across 736 pulls.

TCGQuickShip's homepage quotes sellers on the time the tool saves them. We did not find a published scan-accuracy figure on its homepage, pricing page, or scanning documentation. The best TCG fulfillment tools comparison covers other picking and shipping tools.
