CSV Export
Export your card inventory and active eBay listings as eBay File Exchange-compatible CSV files.
Overview
CSV export gives you a portable copy of your card inventory and your active eBay listings as comma-separated value files. Both exports use eBay's File Exchange column layout, so the files can be uploaded directly to eBay's Seller Hub bulk listing tool — and they also open cleanly in Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet application.
Plan Requirement
CSV export requires the Collector plan ($14/mo) or higher. It is not available on the Free plan.
Where to find it
CSV export lives in Settings → Subscription/Billing, in the Export Your Data section near the bottom.
There are two buttons:
- Export All Cards — every card in your account (active and archived) as
rocketvault_cards_YYYY-MM-DD.csv - Export Active Listings — only cards with currently-active eBay listings, as
rocketvault_listings_YYYY-MM-DD.csv
Click either button. Your browser downloads the CSV directly — no email, no waiting.
What's included in the export
Both exports use the same column layout. The first set of columns is the eBay File Exchange format for fixed-price listings; the rest is supplemental card data RocketVault adds so the file is also useful for spreadsheets and analytics.

Why eBay File Exchange format
Using eBay's official bulk listing format means:
- Direct upload to eBay Seller Hub — if you ever need to relist outside of RocketVault, the file is ready to go
- Familiar columns — anyone who's used eBay's bulk tools recognizes the layout
- Disaster recovery — keep a current export as a backup of your inventory in a format you control
Regular Backups
Export your full inventory every few weeks as a portable backup. Even though RocketVault stores your data securely, having a local copy is good practice — especially if you're considering downgrading or pausing your subscription.
Tips
- Open in Excel / Google Sheets / Numbers — UTF-8 encoded CSV opens cleanly in all major spreadsheet apps
- Pivot tables on the supplemental columns — Player, Set, Year, Suggested Price, and Graded fields make for great quick analytics
- Filter for tax season — sort by sold cards in a date range and use Suggested Price + grade columns for cost-basis prep
Common Questions
Can I import CSV data back into RocketVault? CSV import isn't currently supported. Cards are added via photo upload and AI identification — that's how we keep image quality and pricing accurate.
Is there a limit on how many cards I can export? No — you can export your entire inventory in one file regardless of size. The file streams as it generates so even very large inventories complete quickly.
What encoding does the CSV use? UTF-8, compatible with Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers, and any modern spreadsheet application.
Why does the export include archived cards? The "Export All Cards" download intentionally includes archived cards so users who are downgrading or canceling have a complete record they can relist independently. The "Export Active Listings" download is scoped to live listings only.
What happens to CSV export if I downgrade to Free? Export access is gated on the Collector plan and above. If you cancel and drop to Free, the export buttons disable. We recommend exporting your full inventory before downgrading.
