Shelf Check

Shelf Check: one photo of the whole shelf

At a thrift store, an estate sale or a yard sale there is no time to Price Check every item. Shelf Check takes one photo of the whole shelf and picks out the finds worth a closer look, most valuable first.

The shelf, in order of worth

A rough value is Shelf Check's read of the photo, never an eBay price, and the app labels it that way.

How Shelf Check works

In the camera, in Sourcing or in Add Item, switch One item to Whole shelf and tap Check Shelf.
Shelf Check looks over the photo and marks up to 12 finds with numbered pins, most valuable first, each with a rough value read from the photo.
Tap a find: VendorSnap cuts it out of your photo and runs an ordinary Price Check on it, against what the same item is listed for on eBay right now.
Save it as a find in your Sourcing list, or, from Add Item, straight into your inventory, ready to tag or list.

A rough value, said plainly

The value beside each pin is Shelf Check's rough read of the photo, never an eBay price, and the app labels it that way. The price you list at comes from the Price Check you open on a find, which compares live eBay asking prices and shows you every listing it compared.
