Collector's Vault Starter Kit

Spreadsheet templates, grading guides, and valuation checklists for serious collectors — vinyl, cards, sneakers, and more.

The Collector's Vault Starter Kit is the operational system behind everything we write about in the vault. Every guide on grading prep, inventory organization, value tracking, and building a PC references this kit because it is where the templates, spreadsheets, and decision frameworks actually live. If you read the vault and want to implement what it describes, this is the starting point.

Everything included
  • ✓ Master collection spreadsheet
  • ✓ Condition grading rubric
  • ✓ Value tracking dashboard
  • ✓ Insurance documentation template
  • ✓ Works offline (Google Sheets + Excel)
How you'll actually use this
→ Building your first serious PC inventory system from scratch
→ Preparing a grading batch for PSA, BGS, or SGC with a repeatable pre-submission workflow
→ Running comp analysis on your watchlist cards using the 90-day eBay sold method
→ Making sell vs. hold decisions with the included decision matrix instead of guessing
→ Tracking flip profit and reinvestment with the included flip log

The Operator's
Daily Playbook

A stripped-down daily system for collectors and creators running side projects. Not a productivity app — a one-page framework you'll actually use. Built around the constraint that real collectors have day jobs, families, and 45 good minutes a day.

◆ Morning anchor — the 3 questions that set your day's direction
◆ Weekly vault review — inventory, watchlist, pending submissions
◆ Side hustle blocks — when to ship vs when to research
