## Problem Statement
The Collection Tracker is missing several features that users expect from a collection management tool:
  1. No export functionality
  2. No sharing capability
  3. No pricing/value information
## Area
Collection Tracker
## Missing Features Detail
### 1. Export Functionality
User Need:
Ability to export collection data for backup, import into other tools, or personal records.
Suggested Export Formats:
  • CSV (spreadsheet compatible)
  • JSON (developer/backup friendly)
  • Plain text list
  • PDF report (formatted summary)
### 2. Share Functionality
User Need:
Ability to share collection with others for trading, showing off, or collaboration.
Suggested Share Options:
  • Public link to view-only collection
  • Private link with access code
  • Social media sharing
  • Direct share to other Flexslot users
### 3. Pricing Information
User Need:
See the monetary value of cards and total collection value.
Suggested Pricing Features:
  • Individual card prices (market/TCGPlayer/etc.)
  • Total collection value
  • Price trend indicators
  • Value by set/rarity breakdown
  • Price data source selection
## User Stories
  • As a collector, I want to export my collection so I can back it up or use it in other tools
  • As a collector, I want to share my collection so others can see what I have for trading
  • As a collector, I want to see pricing information so I know the value of my collection
## Acceptance Criteria
### Export
  • [ ] Add export button to Collection Tracker UI
  • [ ] Support CSV export with all card data
  • [ ] Support JSON export for data portability
  • [ ] Include export options (all cards, filtered view, specific sets)
### Share
  • [ ] Add share button to Collection Tracker UI
  • [ ] Generate shareable public link
  • [ ] Create view-only mode for shared collections
  • [ ] Allow user to revoke/regenerate share links
### Pricing
  • [ ] Integrate with pricing API (TCGPlayer, Scryfall, etc.)
  • [ ] Display price per card in collection view
  • [ ] Show total collection value summary
  • [ ] Add price column to collection table
  • [ ] Consider caching strategy for price data
## Questions for Stakeholder
  1. Which pricing source should be prioritized (TCGPlayer, CardKingdom, etc.)?
  2. Should prices be real-time or cached (with refresh option)?
  3. For sharing, should there be privacy controls (hide certain cards)?
  4. Should export include pricing data?
## Complexity Note
This ticket contains 3 distinct features. Consider breaking into separate tickets:
  • Collection Tracker: Export functionality
  • Collection Tracker: Share functionality
  • Collection Tracker: Pricing integration
