It's live and free for the entire Dragon Ball TCG community. It aggregates thousands of sold DB card listings automatically for you in a simple dashboard. I built this to help everyone see trend, assess pricing, and get target price zones for specific DB cards.
You can filter down per TCG / cohort / set / grading / card. If you choose a specific card with grading it will give you a target price zone for it.
This is brand new so if theres any issues you can report to me :)
Happy Scouting

DB trend check from Scouter Says, 6,727 qualified sales
Major cohort trends:
SB01/SB02 manga gold EMs: -5.4% 30d / -8.9% 90d
Manga red alt arts: -3.4% 30d / -11.0% 90d
Ultimate Battle/event prizes: flat 30d / flat 90d
SCR/SCR* alt arts: -4.2% 30d / -10.4% 90d
FW SCRs: +10.6% 30d / -9.2% 90d
Pack alt arts: -9.1% 30d / -13.2% 90d
Masters GDRs: +8.9% 30d / flat 90d
Masters SCRs: -4.2% 30d / -7.3% 90d
Most interesting detail imo: raw manga gold EMs are +24.9% 30d while graded gold EMs are softer. Red manga alts and pack alts continue to bleed. UBWs are holding up better overall, but the strength is card-specific, not across every grade.
Gotta start thinking targeting red mangas as they bleed is a favorable move.
I’ll reiterate these are the vintage cards to target imo. they’re the rookie cards of manga art which we’ve seen have explosive growth from sb01 and sb02. Only target clean corners no glaring scratches and grade looking for PSA 7+
I got my #253 and it’s in shockingly good shape. Perfect corners, some little scratches under light tilt but still impressive considering it’s from 1995
most DB cards I talk about are $1k+ but if I recommended 1 card that was <$500 it would be FP-024. I would typically recommend against PSA for DB but this card scratches very easily so I highly don’t recommend buying raw (I did this, bad decision).
We’re seeing 70% gem rates for PSA 10 which is very unusual. I believe goku mini / kid goku cards will do extremely well long term. This is one you want PSA 10 that you can still get <$500.
ngl I feel I should have just went a bit higher on FP-034 BL tonight and won it. Was a close call. See if another shows up
next targets for me, going for E-42 gold EM and E-90 then getting a Visual Adventure PSA 8+ pair for each. Probably going to churn through a lot of raw VAs looking for them 😄

The collectible hype is so big right now, it’s easy to feel like you need exposure to everything.
Pokémon. Dragon Ball. Games. Whatever pumps next.
Always remember to buy what you love and what you’re happy being stuck holding.
There will always be someone making you feel like you're underexposed. Never FOMO (only with Fusion world 😏🫢) and enjoy the ride.
Love you Golden boy.

The more and more I look at SB01 & SB02 Energy Markers, the more they stand out as some of the most unique collectibles in all TCGs.
• Original Akira Toriyama artwork
• Original Tankōbon cover illustrations
• Premium gold foiling
• 2 per case
• 21 different illustrations in SB01 & 21 different illustrations in SB02
The perfect combination of iconic artwork meets rarity meets collectability. 🤝Truly one of a kind. 🐉🌎
I have quite a large collection of DB cards, have gathered and analyzed tens of thousands of DB cards on scoutersays.com
If you get 1 card for the long haul I would say do whatever you can to grab an sb01 or sb02 gold energy marker.
sb01 boxes are $1500+
sb02 boxes are $800+
gold EMs hit at 2 per case (12 boxes) and I don’t see box cost going down, only up long term.
I am still personally underexposed only owning 1 (a E-74 BL) and will be looking to grab more.
Based on the data, there is a dip forming after a massive run up. I’m going to try and take advantage.

if you're going for these, I highly recommend checking out buyee (buyee.jp/) Japan's auctions are way cheaper than ebay for these cards.
I just got a #61 to pair with my E-74 BL for $8 (want to find a PSA 8+). Ebay is asking 5x+ this
if all goes well over the next few years and all parties keep the peace, I believe FW passes OP as a collectible TCG with half the effort from Bandai
Not to say OP doesn’t do well, it just really won’t be hard for Bandai to move FW. Opp is too good for them to not make it happen
theres a collection of 1990's prisms that are rare that match the sb01 & sb02 collection's manga art. Barely graded.
collected the e-42 or e-90? match it with it's prism.
going to explode imo
if you don't understand just how much these gold EMs have run here's what their price charts look like for E-42 and E-90
