Built for game & collectible Shops
Independent collectibles and game shops are running the most passionate live selling events in retail—only to hand over higher fees and customer control to third-party marketplaces. CommentSold gives you your own branded app to host live breaks, capture instant sales, and keep more profit from every sale.
If you run a card shop or collectibles business, this sounds familiar.
Marketplaces take 8–15% of every sale from the community you built
Post-drop order management is a spreadsheet nightmare every single time
Social algorithms hide your new product drops from the buyers who actually want them
Collectors buy from you once and disappear into another seller’s feed
The shop owner’s platform
Collectibles build some of the most passionate, loyal buyer communities in retail. Whether it’s sports card box breaks, rips, TCG set drops, Funko releases, or rare collectibles—your buyers show up because they trust you. That trust belongs to your business, not to Whatnot, eBay, or third-party feeds.
CommentSold is the all-in-one platform that turns your live drops into owned-channel commerce: your branded app, your push notifications, your customer data, your revenue. Run live pack openings with automated checkout, build VIP tiers for your best regulars, and reach buyers directly when a hot new set drops — without paying marketplace fees or losing your community to a competitor’s feed.
Your unfair advantage
Run live box breaks, pack openings, and hype product drops across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, or your own branded app. Comment-purchasing automates checkout instantly—no manual invoices, no DM orders, and zero missed sales.
Give your regulars an app with your shop’s logo—not the marketplaces. Alert collectors the second a new set drops, a case break goes live, or a rare pull hits your catalog. Keep your buyers focused exclusively on your inventory.
Social algorithms hide your drops from 90% of your followers. Push notifications go directly to every app user’s lock screen—so when a restock drops or a break goes live, your community knows about it instantly.
When your live stream ends, your admin work is already complete. Every comment claim auto-generates an invoice, collects payment, and queues orders for fulfillment—saving hours after every drop or break.
Your repeat collectors and break regulars drive your margin. Give them points, VIP tiers, and exclusive early-access perks so they keep buying directly on your platform instead of hunting on third-party marketplaces.
See which buyers are your high-LTV regulars, what they buy most, and when they’re most active. Segment your community to send targeted drop alerts to the collectors most likely to claim — not a blast to everyone.
Three steps to owned-channel commerce for your game shop or collectibles boutique
Connect your social channels, load your inventory (cards, comics, figures, games), and launch your branded mobile app. No developer needed — onboarding support walks you through every step.
Go live with pack openings, set reveals, or new arrival events. Comment claims auto-generate invoices and capture payment in real time — while you focus on the reveal, not the admin.
Push notifications, loyalty rewards, and customer insights keep your regulars engaged between drops — and turn marketplace buyers into loyal LGS community members who show up for you, not the algorithm.
A day in the life
It’s Thursday afternoon. The new Pokémon set arrives tomorrow morning and you have 200 booster boxes plus sealed ETBs to move. You set up your live drop in CommentSold, schedule a push notification to go out Friday at 9am — directly to every buyer who has your app on their phone.
Friday morning, 200 app users get the alert before they check social media. You go live on your branded app and Facebook simultaneously. Buyers comment their claims: “SOLD ETB 1” “SOLD BOOSTER 14.” CommentSold handles every invoice automatically, captures payment, and queues orders for your team to fulfill.
By noon, 150 boxes are gone. Your top buyers — the ones with 20+ purchases — got a VIP loyalty discount automatically. Three new buyers downloaded your app from the Facebook live and are already browsing your back catalog.
No spreadsheets. No Whatnot cut. No buyers disappearing into someone else’s platform. Just your community, your revenue, and your next drop already planned.
You don’t have to choose. Many game shops run CommentSold for their owned-channel drops — where they keep more revenue — while maintaining a presence on Whatnot for discovery. Over time, as your app community grows, most shops naturally shift the majority of their volume to the owned channel where margins are better and buyer relationships are stronger.
Yes — CommentSold works well for shops that do both in-store and online commerce. Your online live drops and app can run alongside your in-store operations, and unified inventory management keeps your stock accurate across both channels automatically.
Most shops are running their first live drop within a few days of signing up. If you can run a Facebook Live, you can run CommentSold.
Pricing is based on your volume and features. Book a free demo and we’ll walk you through the right plan for your shop’s volume — and show you the margin math on what you’d save compared to marketplace fees.
Yes — CommentSold handles multiple product types, variants, and one-of-a-kind items in the same store. Graded slabs, sealed cases, and singles with different conditions can all live in the same inventory system and be sold through the same live drop format.
Stop paying marketplaces to host your community. Build something your regulars actually call their own.
