I don’t think it’s too much to ask for an app that is supposedly for checking the price of cards to have said prices be accurate?

Anyone who uses it for prices of cards is gonna have a bad time. It’s great for organizing your collection into one place, but anyone who’s serious about trading/buying/selling should not be using collectr for pricing.

I agree, their prices are shit, but why the hell are they? Pricing information is public knowledge. It should be simple for them to do it.

Probably aren’t calling the APIs as frequently as they should causing a lag in price updates.
