The Hobby Network · Member Guide
Track live auctions on eBay, PWCC, and Goldin without hopping between tabs. Paste a link, set your price, and let The Hobby Network alert you the moment something changes.
Auction Tracker is an advanced tool available to members with Auction Tracker access. Open the Tools menu at the top of the page and choose Auction Tracker. Don't see it there? Just request access and we'll get you set up.
Not in your Tools menu yet? Auction Tracker is a members-only tool. If it isn't listed, reach out to request access — once it's enabled, it appears in your Tools dropdown.
On the My Auction Tracker page, click Track New Auction. Paste the auction link, add an optional note for yourself, and set a price you'd like to be warned about. The Hobby Network reads the listing and starts watching it for you.
Drop in the auction URL from eBay, PWCC, or Goldin. Use the notes field for a personal reminder, and set a price threshold so you're alerted if it climbs past your comfort zone.
Any listing link works. Copy the auction's web address from eBay, PWCC, or Goldin and paste it in — The Hobby Network pulls in the title, current price, and end time automatically.
Everything you track lands on your My Auction Tracker dashboard. Each row shows the Item Title, Current Price, Bids, Ends In, and Smart Options — all kept up to date in the background. Switch between Active Tracking and Past Auctions with the tabs.
Prices and bid counts refresh automatically, so the Ends In countdown and totals stay current without you reloading. Use Stats for a quick overview, or select rows and use Delete Selected to tidy up.
Prices shown are examples. Your dashboard shows each auction's real current price and bid count, refreshed automatically in the background — the numbers above are just for illustration.
Click the gear — Notification Settings — to decide what you're told and how. Turn on alerts for Price changes, new Bids, your price Threshold, and Timers (auctions ending soon), each delivered by email, SMS, or on the web. Handy automations round it out.
Mix and match: get a text when a card passes your threshold, an email when the timer's almost up, or a web alert on every new bid. Optional automations include an alert sound, auto-opening the listing minutes before it closes, and auto-deleting auctions once they end.
Only hear about what matters. Set a threshold on a card and skip the noise — you'll get pinged the way you chose the moment it matters, instead of watching the clock yourself.
