Collectr tracks a collection. VENDR runs the business that sells it.
Collectr is a beautiful portfolio app and plenty of vendors keep their stock in it. But it's built for collectors: there's no register, no buy offers at your rate, no team and no books — and below Near Mint, every card takes the same flat cut.
