OK folks, here it is! The price guide is live. The address you are looking for:

http://www.theyakshack.co.uk/tradingcards

Or you can just click the handy button that has appeared at the top of the forum next to 'home'.

You have to be registered and logged into the forum to make full use of it - you cannot get any stats on the cards if you are not logged in, or submit auctions, so if there are any lurkers out there waiting for an excuse to join up, here it is Smiley

Please help out and submit all the finished auctions you can find. Don't be discouraged if you find someone else has beaten you to it - that's bound to happen. Just whenever you see one end that you are watching, take a minute to track it.

There are only the two Harry Potter sets up there at the moment but we will get other sets up as time goes on. Any suggestions? I think the Trilogy set is one to look out for as soon as we can figure out how to scan them in well!!

The guide is all up to date with auctions and average prices so far for the Original Potter set (that's not to say it couldn't do with more auctions added Smiley), however, we are desperately in need of auctions for the update set, most of the high profile ones are in there, but I hand it over to you guys to continue this quest to make an online price guide with realistic prices for online shoppers Smiley

Yes - that's ready for all the bandwidth use we are expecting - the forum bashes through it's bandwidth limit of 2 gig without adding pictures in Wink so that's why we went on to add the advertising!

Non members of the forum won't be able to see the card statistics. Only members will get the prices etc Wink although they will be tantalisingly able to see the cards Smiley

Let us know what you think, we'll act on as many of your comments as possible Smiley

Thanks! It's really no problem.

I had gone to bed when Mark had finished programming the site so the content isn't all quite there yet!

I am currently scanning in some film cards which I have myself but I send out an appeal to redemption card owners to step forward with images of them - front and back preferably. Images should be 380 pixels wide and 270 pixels high but I can always resize them.

Thanks

OK my scanners gone crazy! Weird... mad!

Actually not mine, Mark's! So currently I can't even get a hold of pictures of the different film cells, please help if you can.

And as to the arrangement of them, we should number them and I vote we number them in order of when the scenes were in the film. So can someone with a pirate copy or a good memory help me out here...

Is this the right order?

1) Knight Bus
2) Arthur Weasley and Harry talk in the Leaky Cauldron

this is where it all mingles in for me

3) Harry rides Buckbeak
4) Harry in the courtyard with Hedwig
5) Harry and Snape with the marauders map at night
6) Lupin in his office by the window

7) Hermione biffs Malfoy (you go girl)
8) Werewolf (shiver)
9) EXPECTO PATRONUM (ahem sorry - Harry casting EP)

Any ideas?

I've been inputting data for multiple auctions of the same item.  After I click submit, it redirects to enter more auctions.  But, I have to locate the card on the list again before I can do so.  Is there any way to default to the previous card?  Or maybe people prefer it the way it is so they can enter info for different cards?

Also, how should I handle BINs with more than one item for sale or Dutch auctions?  They have the same auction number, so each card can't be entered individually.  This came up with a dual costume auction that had three cards for sale.  I could only enter the auction number and price once, so I put the print run numbers for the cards in the description section.
