New Website Will Allow You To Have Saved Searches For Multiple Auction Houses

[FromVAtoLA]

Listening to the latest episode of the Golden Age of Cardboard podcast (it's not on you tube yet but here's the apple podcast link). Leighton Sheldon/Just Collect announced they are rolling a new website that will track active auction items at all of the major auction houses and you'll be able to search across auction houses using their search engine. You'll also be able to save your searches and be notified when new items post similar to Ebay. It looks like the site is going to do some other things and somehow it uses AI to help you out. (It's 2025...can you launch any new product or service without saying it's using AI?)

He said it's going to cost about $10/month or $100/year and will go live around Nov 1. Here's the link: https://auctionwire.ai/

I've always wished something like this existed, but I'm not sure it's something I'm willing to pay for. That said, I signed up to get notified of it's launch in a couple of weeks.

Yeah, I have 4 or 5 searches I run at 6-7 AH's . . . . doesn't seem like a cost I need to add to the list.

Plus I like scanning through a new auction when it first opens.

It must only track certain auctions and not all of them. I assume AHs have to opt in to having their sites tracked so I am expecting a pretty massive list for $10 a month.

Negative. Even if there's basically zero tech involved, if you don't market it as AI-powered, no one will buy it.

I have had the opportunity to preview the Auctionwire privately, and then again, updated, at the Philly Show. Its pretty cool and I feel it will be quite helpful, almost certainly worth a mere $10/month. Its my understanding that the auction tracker is only the tip of the iceberg and the application will eventually be much more robust (i.e., do much more than track auctions).

Good Luck Leighton, sign me up!

The Barneby's website has something similar and it's FREE

https://www.barnebys.com/auctions

If you setup an account (which is free) it let's you setup alerts that are emailed to you.

I'm not sure that it searches all AHs but it does a good number of them.

N.B. I'm not affiliated with them in any way....I just use the website.

I just listened to the podcast to make sure I understand what this new site does. I have know Leighton since him and Scott started JC 20 years ago
the same time VCP started...

I really do not see what the difference with what he is trying to do now and what VCP Want List has been doing for 20 years now...

You create a list of cards on VCP that you want to buy by Grade and Grader. And whenever they become available on the 19 different auction sites we cover you will 2 daily emails. First, new items now available with links of course. And another with ending auctions with items you are looking to get.

And on VCP you can get this for free, you just dont get the value of the cards.
As other links posted similar features and the reason why it is free is eBay and some AH offer an EPN for driving them traffic...

Am I missing something?

I had no idea that was in VCP Bobby. Thanks for posting that. I've just added a bunch of cards to my VCP want list. Unfortunately VCP will only show me graded cards but it's a great help.
