Data Sources

How CatchDex distinguishes source metadata, image availability, official announcements and eBay referrals.

Catalog metadata, card images, official announcements, prices and merchant links are separate sources with separate permissions.

Card catalog

CatchDex uses English TCGdex source records for its catalog. Some matching high-resolution images use separately recorded alternatives. Not every card has an available approved image; missing scans are not replaced with another printing or language.

Card details expose their source identifiers. Printing variants in metadata do not imply that a separate exact physical scan or verified foil simulation is available for each variant.

Official announcements and product references

News and source-reviewed product connections link to the relevant original announcement. A source reference does not grant permission to reproduce the publisher’s images or authenticate a marketplace seller.

Shopping and prices

eBay links use the eBay Partner Network. There is no connected live price feed. Affiliate approval does not automatically grant bulk image, cache, transform, product-data or redistribution rights.

Collection exports

The free local collection tool exports the user’s checklist fields, not an archive of third-party card images. Back up your own records as CSV before clearing browser data.
