Thanks Eve - glad you like it! As for the list of cards with the print run on them... well all the info is already there, isn't it? Each card has the print run listed in the info section. So in actual fact it wouldn't take me more than a few minutes to knock up a page to display that. Would anyone else find that useful? If so I'll stick a link on the main page, otherwise if it's only you, kbmum, I'll just put the link here in the forum |

OK guys, you asked for it, you've got it. You now have a "slimmed down" printable view on the shack (see the print button in the top right-ish). And if you look a tthe menu on the right you can see an option which will let you view a text list of all the cards with a column telling you how many of that card they made if known. Anything else to tax my programming skills? |

Hey this is a cool site. I hadn't spotted it before - all hidden away in the titles. Maybe you should have a bigger banner about it or something.
That must have taken a lot of work - not only in building it (which looks impossible. I have made sites myself but not like that) but in inputting all that data.
Can just anyone enter data or do you have to be pre-approved?

Good idea Renrutha. Now you guys have been using the site (for both entering and retrieving pricing data) for a while now what do you all think? Any more ideas for improvement? Our next upgrade will include - 1) Graphs showing price change over time. Although this will have to be based on some mean figure or other to avoid it looking like a seismograph 2) On the list of auctions for each card we plan to put a "u" next to unsold items or a "v" next to a variant item. 3)... is up to you! Thanks |

What is an "unsold" card? And why would we track it? |

It's a good point.
Not many are in the price guide but there are a few auctions recorded in there that didn't sell. So they obviously don't count in the calculated averages, but their auctions are in there to record that they existed (there are only a handful in I think).

I have a request. When I first enter an auction, I use "submit auction," which allows me to paste in the number and then find out if the auction has already been submitted. If it has, then I can enter the next number.
However, if the auction hasn't been entered, I fill out the form and submit the info. Within a few seconds, an empty form comes up to enter another auction. I always have to click on "submit auction" again, because I don't want to enter all of the info for the next auction, only to find out it's been done.
After entering auction info, can the default go to the page with just the auction number to enter?

I agree with kbmum. I hate it when I've entered all of the info (including a description of the card) and then find out it's already been entered!  Her idea would definitely save some time! |

Right - so presumably leaving it as the same card as you just entered? I recently had an inputted auction for a whomping Willow that ended around $120... I was shocked... really shocked... til I got to the ebay page and found it was a monster book |

Roz, can it revert to the "submit auction" page with the auction ID blank?

lol we point no fingers it just gave me a fright I'll chat with web-xpert@work Mark and hope it can be done! Thanks for the comments, I'll write Mark a "to do list" for when he's unpacked in his new house (it's slow going as he's only doing it in the evenings and he gets back pretty late as he cycles in the dark now  (that's like "riddles in the dark" but different ) |

Really? I could have sworn I entered a low-priced Whomping Willow. Maybe it was a different Monster Book, then. Sheesh, you wouldn't think we'd want to take credit for a mistake! |

lol it's not like I am offering a free promo to the first person to own up (hmm but what a great idea ). I am wondering about getting some way (in the price guide) to track who puts in the most auctions that month and try to get prizes going for it - because you guys are such astonishing stars I am not sure how to say thank you and I wonder if that would be a good way. |

I do it because I think it's fun. Maybe a contest would encourage others to enter auctions, too?
