How to use PriceCharting endpoints

Crawlora's 6 PriceCharting endpoints cover public catalog discovery, product pages, monthly price history and the big-mover feed. A charizard search on 2026-10-27 returned 100 rows, the route's cap, with each row carrying three price columns whose meaning depends on the category: ungraded, Grade 9 and PSA 10 for cards. The sort and the movers report both have traps, covered below. Price values are source snapshots, not checkout quotes; when referencing them externally, cite PriceCharting with a visible link.

Step 1
Pick the category and console before the query
/pricecharting/categories returned 17 categories (Video Games, Pokemon Cards, Digimon Cards, Magic Cards, One Piece Cards, Comics, Funko Pops, LEGO Sets, Coins and more), and passing a category slug returns its consoles or sets. A console_uid such as G10623 (Pokemon Base Set) or G13002 (Skyridge) narrows /pricecharting/search to one set.
Step 2
Read three price columns, not one price
Search rows use loose_price, complete_price and new_price for every category. For cards these are the ungraded, Grade 9 and PSA 10 columns: Base Set Charizard [1st Edition] #4 showed 6,956.11, 36,735.00 and 335,000.48. Some rows have only one column, as the Charizard Ultra Premium Collection box did, so treat missing columns as absent, not zero.
Step 3
Know what the sort orders by
sort=highest-price ordered rows by the ungraded column. Pokemon Legendary Collection Charizard [Reverse Holo] #3 therefore came seventh at 3,087.50 ungraded even though its PSA 10 price of 178,585.71 beat the second and third rows (54,146.62 and 107,602.75). If you care about graded value, sort the response yourself.
Step 4
Use big movers with a dollar sort for signal
/pricecharting/big-movers returns 100 products per category and report. On 2026-10-27 the Pokemon percent-increase list led with Pokemon Fan Club #71 (+189,300% to 473.50) and a Chinese booster pack (+109,700% to 10.98), and four of the top ten were priced at 50 cents or less. Pennies dominate a percent sort, so use dollar-increase for money-relevant moves.
Step 5
Match the category lists across the two routes
The movers report listed 23 category entries but only 16 distinct slugs, because singular aliases such as Pokemon Card map to pokemon-cards. Digimon Cards is in /pricecharting/categories but not in the movers report. Normalise on slug and do not assume every category has a movers feed.
Step 6
Credit PriceCharting when you share prices
PriceCharting's terms require clear source attribution and a visible hyperlink when its price data is referenced externally. Review the current terms before using the output in a third-party product or service.
