Anyone here use this? I just realized it's a part of my subscription and I thought this is a good way to keep track of collections I buy or consign.

But how the heck do you get the cards into the collection? I see no mechanism for uploading. Any help would be appreciated.

I used to have it. You have to do a search on the top toolbar for whatever card, player, or set you are looking for. Once there, it'll bring you a list, which you will then go down and select the cards you are looking for. Along the right side a little tab will appear, and when you click on that, it will give you an option to move the selected cards to a selected place in your organize.
 
I found it quite clunky and stopped using it as there wasn't a great bulk upload (and even worse, you can't download your collection into an *.xls or *.csv file).
 
You can add a bulk depending upon player, Card Set, etc.

If you need help PM and I will walk you thru it.
 
Used it years ago and it was not the greatest. Mark would be a great person to help as I know he has been using it for years.
 
Okay, so then what do you use to move all the little stuff that crosses your desk? I use COMC for some stuff, but a lot of other things it would just be nice to dump them into something and let people have at them.

Kronozio?
 
Its very very clicky. I have found a bunch of errors in there as well while looking up sets/cards I was chasing.

You can get around it if you know how to use excel.

I going to assume you're not writing that to come across as condescending as I initially read it?

I'm a reasonably adept Excel jockey but struggled.

But definitely grateful for insight as I still have cards up there.

Wasnt meant as condescending.
Its been about a year, but it was pretty much copy and paste. Maybe paste special >. One of those options made it pretty easy. Just had to adjust the columns, then rename them.

Here is a screen shot (prices blurred out) of how mine turned out.

Also, I added most of my collection over to www.tcdb.com
I like their system more than beckett.
 
Ok cool - thanks foley - will give that a go.

I've tried text to columns among other copy/paste commands and it was very, very garbled.

I use it and still make a couple of trades there every month... the big thing to remember is that it's designed to work with their trade system, etc. I've never tried to sell in the Marketplace.

I am giving Kronozio a go, we'll see. Not sure who (or how many) are using it for purchases yet. I like the images, but the UI is pretty clunky still. Hopefully they are making enough to start upgrading the user experience.
 
I use this site as well and like it.

I started using it just to keep track of what I have as its free and easy to use.
Started added stuff for trade and made a bunch of trades over there. I like that it shows me what I have that is on other peoples want lists and what I have on theirs. Also easy to create a check list as well.
I find its more older people as well and I have had zero problems so far, but its mostly low end stuff I needed to kill sets. It was the only place I seen that actually had the complete mess up of the OHL WHL 7th inning sketch cards that had wrong numbers and stuff. I was looking for cards that did no exist. Over there found out what was actually going on.
