Hi, I'm Sebastian. I'm a collector who got tired of paying $20/month for trading card price data that should be public. So I built CardGauge — free scanner, free binder, free market trends, real eBay numbers. No subscription, no Pro tier, no email gate. I run it solo from my desk, surrounded by about 500,000 cards. The eBay affiliate clicks keep the lights on; tips here help cover the API bills, the occasional giveaway envelope, and the late-night code sessions. Free forever stays free forever.
