## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability api-tcgapi-dev-98e64a54 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What are the current TCGPlayer market, low, and high prices for the card with TCGPlayer product ID 475980 — is it a Pokemon or Magic card, and what set is it from?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have a specific TCGPlayer product ID and need precise current pricing and card metadata for that exact printing. Prefer this over full-text search when the TCGPlayer ID is already known, and prefer this over bulk endpoints when only a single card needs to be priced. Ideal for price-checking a card in an inventory system, validating a listing, or enriching a known card record with current market data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent TCGPlayer product ID returns a 404 or empty result
- TCGPlayer product ID belongs to a non-card product (e.g. booster box) and may return unexpected data
- Price data may be stale if TCGPlayer hasn't updated recently
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient — returns 402 status
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in quick succession
