Seller takeaway

What I would do with this data

Start here: what looks worth researching, what looks like busy work, and the benchmark I would check before buying inventory.

Look for dollars per seller

Collectible Card Games has about $0 in revenue per observed seller. That is often more useful than raw GMV.

Try this: Turn the category into a short sourcing list, then validate the brands and product terms inside it.

How to read the category rankings

Collectible Card Games is the current revenue leader with $215.5M in observed sales and 2.4M units sold. The top of the table proves demand, but high seller counts also mean sharper competition.

The best sourcing lanes are rarely just the highest revenue categories; median sold price and seller count matter just as much.

  • Revenue leader: Collectible Card Games - $215.5M in 30-day sales

Category hidden gems

These are not guaranteed easy flips. They are categories where the public data suggests demand exists without the same seller density as the biggest categories.

Categories with a high median price can still be risky if shipping, authentication, returns, or parts knowledge are hard to manage.

How to use this report

Use the category table to identify broad lanes, then move to the brand and product reports for more specific sourcing decisions.
