Pricing Philosophy
Moon Stone separates the product price from the membership. Every box is listed at the live TCGPlayer market price, refreshed daily, with the market link beside the product.
Why market price?
Suppliers have squeezed retailers too. Hot boxes often arrive already priced close to the secondary market, so the clean promise is simple: show the market comp, price the box there, and do not add a retailer markup on top.
What you pay
- Box price: the live market price.
- Membership: covers Moon Stone operations: sourcing, shrink verification, service, and free US shipping. I make nothing on the product.
What happens as Moon Stone scales
If better volume, supplier terms, or operating leverage lower the cost of getting boxes to members, I will pass those benefits to Moon Stone members.
When the market moves
Prices refresh daily. If a box is priced above the market because the comp moved, Moon Stone refunds the difference under the pricing guarantee.
What this is not
No retailer markup, no marketplace fee, no member-vs-market comparison.
