How to read the LOW and MID prices
Under each card, Tapt shows two reference prices, signed with its logo. Here is what they mean.
LOW: the low end of the market, what the cheapest stores that have the card in stock ask. A store clearing a single copy does not set it.
MID: the middle price. Half of the stores ask less, the other half ask more. It only shows from three stores: with one or two, you only see LOW.
HIGH: the high end of the market, what the priciest stores that have the card in stock ask (truly out-of-range prices are set aside). It only shows from five stores.
From the Canadian game stores that Tapt compares, in Canadian dollars, with no currency conversion. Only cards in stock, in Near Mint condition, are counted, and each printing has its own price: a specific set, number and finish (foil apart from non-foil).
Prices are recalculated every night. Today, 33 403 cards have a reference price (updated 2026-11-01).
These are asking prices in stores, not completed sales. Many tools show an average price of sales made in the United States, in US dollars, converted at the day's rate. Here, it is the price that a local store asks you today for a card it really has on its shelves.
- One store, one voice. A store that has ten copies of a card only counts once.
- No median on two prices. Under three stores, Tapt only shows LOW.
- Nobody pays to weigh more. No store can buy its place or influence the calculation.
- Nothing rather than an invented number. A card in stock nowhere has no reference price.
