What's Next for TCG Marquee Before 2027

Your collection as a portfolio and the show table as a trading desk: here's what I plan to build between now and the new year, and what stays the same.

Every display gets its own settings, plus a text-only LED board

Show mode, timing, and brightness are now set per display, from one sheet. Plus a no-pictures LED board with price charts, charts that match the numbers, and firmware updates you control.

Card Show Display Case: How to Pick One That Sells

How to pick a card show display case: locking latch cases, acrylic and wood, tabletop stands, slab sizes to measure, setup, pricing, and transport.

Hide the market price, bolder card art, and Fire TV

Vendors can now keep the market price off a card in show mode. Plus bolder card art on the LED board, a ticker fix, and an app for the newest Fire TV sticks.

Becoming a Card Show Vendor: Costs and Checklist

What a card show table really costs, how to work out your break-even before you book, what to bring, and how to take payments and price your cards.

Shopify sync for vendors: a work in progress

Vendors who sell on Shopify will be able to connect their store and have their show table screen follow it: what's in stock, at what price. Here's what's built and tested so far, and what's still to come.

Changing many cards at once, for shows and binders

Select cards with checkboxes, or a whole binder at once, and put them on the wall, take them off, or mark them for sale in a single step.

Shop logos, QR codes, and a smoother ticker

Card shops can now show their own logo and a QR code to their website or social media, every fifteen pages. The ticker also stopped stuttering.

Show mode: price boards for the vendor table

Show mode turns TCG Marquee into a sign for your table at a card show: cards you're selling, your asking price next to the market price, and totals.
