Freshly Sleeved #23 — Scan more & Shop smarter on mobile

Hey collectors! This edition is all about doing more from your phone: the Cart Wizard has arrived in the app, the card scanner now recognises ten more games, seller reviews are out in the open — and Middle-earth lands (again) in the catalog. Let's open the pack!


🎯 Highlights

The Cart Wizard is now in your pocket (in the app)

The Cart Wizard has arrived in the app. Start from your cart, from one of your lists ("Shop what's missing") or from a whole expansion ("Shop this expansion"), set your preferences — condition, finish, language, exact or any printing, where sellers ship from — and it scans every seller to build the perfect cart.

Now you can turn a deck list into a checkout-ready cart from your sofa.

The scanner now recognises ten more games (in the app)

The card scanner got a brand-new recognition model. On top of Magic, Pokémon, Lorcana, One Piece, Flesh and Blood, Riftbound, Rise and Sorcery, it now identifies:

Cyberpunk TCG, Dragon Ball Super: Fusion World, Dragon Ball Super: Masters, Echoes of Astra, Grand Archive, Gundam Card Game, Naruto Mythos, Star Wars: Unlimited, Chrono Core and Palworld TCG — 18 games in total.

☝️ When two games share a look (Pokémon vs. Pokémon Japan, Dragon Ball Masters vs. Fusion World), you now have to choose which one to scan for.

Seller reviews, out in the open (web & app)

Every seller profile now has a Reviews tab where you can read what buyers actually said — item as described, packaging, communication, comments and all, with the rating breakdown on top. Now you can check a seller's track record before you buy.

When you leave a review, the communication rating is now optional (packaging and "as described" still count every time). And if a review about you feels unfair, either side can appeal it once, within 30 days, right from the order page — the CardNexus team takes a look and decides.


📱 Mobile app

Beyond the Cart Wizard and the scanner:

  • Lists live inside Inventory — Collection, My shop and Lists as three tabs.

  • Start from an expansion — add a whole set to your inventory or to a list straight from its menu.

  • Filters everywhere — marketplace feed (seller location, condition, language, finish, grading, price…), product listings (condition, language, finish, seller region), an "In stock" toggle on expansions, and typo-tolerant search.

  • Photos — full-screen gallery for your listing photos.

  • Insights — Trends chart by card count or value; movers by day / week / month, sorted by % or value.

  • Bulk comments & notes.

  • Scanner, steadier — recovers from start-up hiccups by itself, explains when you need more storage, one-tap bug report, and no online-only actions while offline.

  • And, as usual, a ton of other little adjustments…

✨ Improvements & fixes

  • Sellers set their own purchase limit — cap how many copies of a card one buyer can take.

  • More from the product page — list your own unlisted copies for sale, or add the card to one of your lists, without leaving the page. (web only for now)

  • Search by name + number — "sephiroth 44" or "msh-54" puts the exact print first, everywhere. (web & app)

  • Long pages, less scrolling — filters and actions stay pinned while you scroll, plus a back-to-top button. (web)

  • Sort by expansion — on lists, imports and inventory. (web)

  • Daily Movers by value — sort winners and losers by € / $ moved, not only by %. (web & app)

  • Royal Mail tracking now updates — for UK sellers; stuck orders were repaired.

  • Lists & exports — foil and non-foil stay separate lines when added to a list, text exports include the set code, bulk "Add to cart" offers a "View cart" button. (web)

  • Meet the CardNexus Discord helper — ask our bot support questions, report a missing card, flag a bug or leave feedback. Not on our Discord yet? Join us →

  • Public API (private preview) — moved from v0.9 to v0.11: field-level validation errors, listing-aware product search, shipping address and seller notes on sales, localized names, print-number search. Read the docs →

  • Added many smaller fixes, UI improvements, and performance optimizations across the platform and mobile app
