Binderlist
About

Built by a collector who couldn’t find a Swedish price.

Hi, I’m Kevin Chong. I build Binderlist here in Sweden for collectors across the Nordics, because it is the tool I wished I had when I came back to the hobby.

Kevin Chong, who builds Binderlist

Where it started

I grew up in a Hong Kong household where Pokémon was always on, and anime was simply part of our childhood. My brothers were the biggest influence on me, and they are the reason I started collecting, first Pokémon cards and later Yu-Gi-Oh. Like a lot of people, I drifted away from it as I got older.

Finding my old collection

Last year I found my old binders again, and I have been back in the hobby ever since. The first thing I wanted to know was what my cards were worth here, which turned out to be surprisingly hard. Most price tools show American prices in dollars, so working out what a card actually sells for in Europe, in Swedish kronor, meant juggling a pile of browser tabs and a calculator.

Why I built Binderlist

Collecting can cost a lot these days, and I wanted a single place to keep track of everything I own, see what it is worth in kronor based on real European sales, and eventually sell from that same place. When I couldn’t find anything like that, I decided to build it myself.

Who runs it

I build and run Binderlist myself, here in Sweden. A Swedish limited company (aktiebolag) is being set up to run it, and once it exists, its name and organisation number will be listed on this page.
