Proof-driven studio

MintStack graded-card listing studio

See how one graded card moves from item evidence and auction terms to a buyer-facing listing, without changing its identity between screens.

Seller choices connect to the hub path

A seller can see when an item should use hub intake, which proof is needed, how service lines affect proceeds, and what the buyer will see at pickup.

Guided listing

Publish one consistent graded-card record

Use the Graded sky-dragon card to show how the same title, seller, auction terms, evidence, and handoff choices move into inventory and the buyer-facing listing.

Publish review

What the seller checks before publish

Each checkpoint links to the route that explains the decision, so the listing studio feels like a guided workspace instead of a dead end.

Proof prompts

Proof for the Graded sky-dragon card

These checks keep the current MintStack example exact while showing future partners where item evidence belongs in a production listing flow.

Item identity
  • Title: Graded sky-dragon card.
  • Seller: MintStack | category: graded cards.
Condition
  • Professionally slabbed.
  • Clear case with minor edge wear documented.
Slab evidence
  • Slab photos stay attached to this exact card.
  • Surface and case clarity are visible before bidding.
Label and seal
  • The label area is photographed clearly.
  • The security seal is part of the item record.
Auction terms
  • $412 current bid | $400 reserve | $16 bid step.
  • $520 instant buy while the auction is live.
Custody and handoff
  • A custody record stays with the listing.
  • Hub pickup or insured shipping, with packing photos before carrier handoff.

Draft Builder

  • Seller drafts collect title, category, condition, quantity, SKU, description, tags, and item specifics.
  • This graded-card example asks for slab condition, label and seal evidence, auction terms, custody, and handoff choices.
  • Draft state should stay visible before publish, edit, pause, or route-to-hub actions.

Media Checklist

  • Cover photo, slab details, condition photos, label and seal evidence, custody notes, and packaging views are tracked separately.
  • High-value items can require hub intake or extra proof before ranking well.
  • Buyers should see the proof that matters for the category near the price and handoff choice.

Pricing & Format

  • This item uses a live auction with a $400 reserve, $16 bid step, and $520 instant-buy option.
  • Price guidance should reference recent sales, saved-search demand, watchers, bid depth, and condition quality.
  • Fee visibility should appear before publish so sellers understand expected proceeds.

Handoff & Returns

  • This draft supports insured shipping or hub pickup, with packing notes, release details, and return settings.
  • Large, fragile, or high-risk items can be routed to a hub before buyers see pickup options.
  • Dimensions, weight, included accessories, and release notes reduce buyer confusion after checkout review.

Quality Prompts

  • Prompts catch vague titles, missing proof, restricted terms, duplicate images, weak category fit, and incomplete item specifics.
  • Quality fixes can unlock stronger search placement, timed-drop eligibility, and promoted placement review.
  • Seller dashboards should show the exact fix needed instead of a vague warning.

Review & Publish

  • Final review shows buyer-facing preview, seller fee estimate, fulfillment settings, return setting, visibility label, and policy holds.
  • Operators can see why a listing is ready, needs proof, needs hub intake, or should stay paused.
  • Publish history should record owner, timestamp, major edits, and review status.
