Follow this step-by-step guide to prepare and upload a TCGplayer inventory CSV from the TCGplayer Exporter tool for your Magic: The Gathering listings. We’ll cover formatting, validation, and the Seller Portal upload flow.
Upload steps inside TCGplayer

Choose Import Inventory on the right side below your seller level.
Click the Import to Staged button.
Click Browse (or Choose File) and select the CSV generated by The Expected Value. The filename starts
with Inventory-Upload- and ends in .csv. Click Continue.
Review the upload summary. If there are no errors, confirm the total number of rows matches your expectations and click
Continue to submit the file.
Once processing completes, click View Staged Inventory.
Review the product prices and quantities that have been uploaded. If everything macthes what you expect, click Move to Live to add the cards to your visible inventroy.
Tips for a smooth upload
Only green rows (cards that clear your sift threshold) are exported. Confirm the counts match your inventory.
If TCGplayer reports column mismatches, make sure you haven't edited the CSV headers before uploading.
Need to regenerate the file? Return to the Precon Collection EV tool, re-run your calculation, and download a fresh CSV.
