FlipForge’s value depends on refusing to treat every record as equally trustworthy.
Active listings may be used for discovery and asking-price context when available through authorized sources.
Sold evidence supports value only when legally and technically available through an authorized source or supplied and validated by the user.
Users may enter or import evidence they are permitted to use. FlipForge preserves source and review context.
Year, set, card number, parallel, variation, grader, and grade must match before a record can strongly influence value.
SQLite is the current desktop source of truth. CSV is used for controlled audit, import, or export—not as the authoritative database.
FlipForge does not create fake sold records or present unsupported values as verified market evidence.
Accepted: strong exact-card evidence that may support the analysis.
Review: useful context that is incomplete, uncertain, or not strong enough for automatic support.
Rejected: mismatched, duplicate, stale, contradictory, or otherwise unsuitable evidence.
New APIs, cloud features, account systems, and paid services may require updated disclosures. Material changes will be documented before those features are broadly enabled.
