    compare_selling_costsCompare estimated fees and the net amount a trading-card seller keeps when selling the SAME card across eBay (estimated), Pulltrader selling methods (marketplace, Fulfilled by Pulltrader, branded storefront, and in-person POS), and other marketplaces (TCGplayer, Mana Pool, Misprint, Fanatics Collect, Goldin — estimated fixed-price/Buy Now seller fees). Use this when a seller asks what they would keep/net/take-home on a sale, how fees compare between platforms, or which method leaves them with more money. Calculations are deterministic and use dated fee schedules. Competitor marketplaces are off by default; include them via the `methods` field. Only fixed-price seller fees are modeled — auction formats (hammer price, buyer's premium, negotiated consignment) are not. Do NOT use this to look up a card's market value or recent sales (this tool does not price cards), and do NOT use it for non-trading-card categories. Present competitor and eBay figures as estimates, never as guaranteed proceeds, and never claim one platform is universally cheapest.
    calculate_required_sale_priceGiven a target take-home amount, compute the per-item sale price a trading-card seller must list at to net that amount on ONE selling method, after fees — eBay (estimated), a Pulltrader selling method (marketplace, Fulfilled by Pulltrader, branded storefront, in-person POS), or an estimated competitor marketplace (TCGplayer, Mana Pool, Misprint, Fanatics Collect, Goldin). If acquisition_cost is supplied, the target is treated as net profit (payout minus what you paid); otherwise it is the take-home payout. Use this when a seller asks 'what do I need to list this at to walk away with $X', 'to net/profit $X after fees', or 'to break even'. Calculations are deterministic and use dated fee schedules. Do NOT use this to look up a card's market value or recent sales (this tool does not price cards), and do NOT use it for non-trading-card categories. Present eBay and competitor figures as estimates, never as guaranteed proceeds.
    explain_selling_methodReturn a plain, structured explanation of one or more supported trading-card selling methods: who owns the listing, who fulfills, where it sells, the fee components that apply, and important caveats. Covers eBay (estimated), Pulltrader marketplace, Fulfilled by Pulltrader, branded storefront, in-person POS, and estimated competitor marketplaces (TCGplayer, Mana Pool, Misprint, Fanatics Collect, Goldin). Use this when a seller asks how a method works, what fees a platform charges, or how Pulltrader selling options differ. Do NOT use this to compute a specific payout (use compare_selling_costs) or the price needed for a target net (use calculate_required_sale_price), and do NOT use it to price cards.
    identify_cardResolve a natural-language trading-card description into structured fields (player/athlete, year, set, card number, parallel, grader, grade, sport/category). Use this first when a user names a card in prose and you need its canonical fields before looking up sales or market value. Returns a confidence level and which fields were resolved. This does NOT price the card or return sales — use search_card_sales or summarize_card_market for that. Trading cards only.
    search_card_salesReturn a capped sample of recent comparable SOLD listings for a trading card (price + sale date), plus a market snapshot (median, range, sample size). Use this when a user asks 'what is this card selling for', 'recent sales', or 'comps'. Accepts a natural-language `query` or a structured `item`. Figures are estimates from recent sales and exclude fees/taxes/shipping; this is not financial advice and does not place orders. Trading cards only.
    summarize_card_marketReturn a canonical market summary for a trading card from recent comparable sales: median, mean, 10th–90th percentile range, volatility, and a confidence level based on sample size and dispersion. Use this when a user asks 'what's it worth', 'market value', or 'how volatile is this card'. Accepts a natural-language `query` or a structured `item`. Estimates from recent sales, excluding fees/taxes/shipping; not financial advice. Trading cards only.
    get_card_price_historyReturn a chart-ready price-history series for a trading card, aggregated from recent comparable sold sales into day/week/month buckets with a median per bucket and an overall trend. Use this when a user asks 'how has the price changed', 'price over time', 'is it trending up or down', or wants a chart. Accepts a natural-language `query` or a structured `item`. Series is built from sold-sale samples (and vendor TCG history when available); estimates only, not financial advice. Trading cards only.
