Compact footprint: the Roca Sifter fits perfectly on your countertop.
In terms of time savings, I would say it would be the equivalent of us having at least one more, maybe two more full time employees. The best part is I didn’t use the tool to eliminate anyone – it allowed me to take people who were useful and have them do something else aside from sorting cards all day long.
The value is off the charts of what you get for what you pay for this machine. I would have paid $4,000 for this machine without even blinking an eye.
I don't think I've ever thrown money at my screen faster in my entire life. That might be one of the most no-brainer, no-thought purchases I've ever had.
Roca has been life changing as far as running my business and getting all the bulk out of my back room that’s been collecting dust for over a decade. It’s insane how good it works.
The Roca Sifter requires power, a network connection (ethernet or Wi-Fi), and a device that can access your TCGplayer seller account to operate the Roca Sifter.
The Roca Sifter operates via TCGplayer’s Scan & Identify app, so you can operate the Roca Sifter from any device with access to your TCGplayer seller account. An active network connection is also required.
No, you do not need to be enrolled in TCGplayer Pro to operate your Roca Sifter. A standard TCGplayer seller account provides everything you need to use the Roca Sifter.
You must have a TCGplayer seller account in order to operate the Roca Sifter, but are not required to sell sifted cards on the platform. The Roca Sifter is operated by the Scan & Identify app within TCGplayer’s seller tools. You must use this app to configure sift and scan jobs, identify cards, stage, and push cards to inventory.
Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon, Disney Lorcana, and One Piece Card Game are currently supported.
The subscription for Roca Sifter covers access to the Scan & Identify app to operate the Roca Sifter (previously only available to TCGplayer Pro sellers), Updates for Set Releases, Software & Firmware Updates, Customer Support, and Replaceable Parts. If you discontinue your subscription you cannot run sift or scan jobs and you will not receive support or replaceable parts.
Yes, but not in the same batch. Running them together could lead to damaging products. Only premium sleeves are recommended for use in the Roca Sifter. Penny sleeves can cause a jam and damage the Roca Sifter or your card.
The Roca Sifter uses TCG Market Price for sifting. Prices are updated daily.
Yes, you can run 3 different job types: Sift only, Scan Only, as well as Scan and Sift. There is also a setting to notify you whenever a high-value card is scanned, based on a price threshold you set. This feature is programmed to run in the background of every job.
Scan results can be exported as a .csv file either directly from Scan & Identify, or by pushing to Inventory and exporting a list from staged. Images can currently be saved on an individual basis by right-clicking the desired image and saving it from the Scan & Identify interface.
