Wings of the Captain
One Piece · sealed booster box
It trades at $394 — right at its 1-year high. A quiet quarter overall, but it's picked up 3.5% in the last month. The tell is supply: active eBay listings are down 29% over 60 days. Fewer sellers into a firm price is the setup this system is built to catch. The cards inside are worth about $4,307, or 10.9× the box price. Read: breaking out above its range.

The supply desk
Active eBay listing counts over a 60-day window — the measure almost nobody else publishes. Falling supply into a firm price is the setup; rising supply is the warning.
