Plays nice with where you already sell.
The Kenner Star Wars figure in your storage unit has a cost basis. Do you know it?
Vintage toy and collectible resellers often sit on inventory for months or years waiting for the right buyer or the right moment. Standard bookkeeping handles current-year COGS fine — it falls apart when you're selling something you sourced at an estate sale three years ago and can barely remember what you paid. Profit Hawk stores every lot indefinitely, so your COGS is accurate regardless of how long it took to sell.
What Profit Hawk tracks for toys and collectibles
High-value, long-hold inventory managed correctly.
- Lot-based COGS for estate sale lots and collection buys
- Per-item cost assignment for high-value individual pieces
- Condition grade stored at the item level — affects listing and pricing
- Authentication and third-party appraisal fees as item cost lines
- Long-hold inventory with multi-year COGS carryforward
- Insurance cost allocation on shipped high-value items
- eBay fee verification — high-ticket errors cost more in this category
Estate sale lots split correctly across pieces that actually sell.
You paid $200 for a box of mixed vintage toys at an estate sale. Some are worthless. Some are worth $50 each. Profit Hawk lets you allocate the $200 across just the pieces you expect to list — or proportionally across all — and adjust as you go. Items that don't sell stay on the lot at their allocated cost until they move.
Condition is everything. Track it properly.
A C-8 Mego Batman is worth 3x a C-6. Your listing price reflects condition, and so should your records. Tag items with condition grade at sourcing. When they sell, your records show not just what it sold for but what condition it was in — useful for building a picture of your average margin by condition tier.
High-value items need high-value reconciliation.
A $500 vintage toy sale has a $66 final value fee. A fee error on that transaction is not a rounding issue. Profit Hawk verifies every fee on every high-ticket sale and flags discrepancies before the eBay dispute window closes. You'll know about it in days, not months.
