Has anyone else noticed that as of the last couple of days, Beckett OPG seems to use new code that does not allow highlight & copy of text? It doesn't even allow the select/highlight anymore. I prefer to manage my collection in a spreadsheet but when I start a new set, I like to copy and paste the set listing and prices into my spreadsheet. It seems like those days might be over. Has anyone else had this problem?
 
Beckett is so slow that I do not use it. I read the post because BrownBullhead is such a nice guy.

Thank you (i think?!). :P

I can deal with the lack of speed but if I can't cut/paste for eBay listings in Turbo Lister, nor can I cut/paste into my spreadsheets, the value of OPG decreases substantially for me.
 
I to have this issue. I always use it for my eBay listings. Much less typing.

What a joke of a site it is.
 
I use it for reference only - but it's clear they're trying to push you into using their collection sorter. For my want list for the Oilers Collection, I cut and pasted from the checklist posted here.
 
I just tried and had no issues highlighting/copying/pasting from their online checklist. I'm using Internet Explorer, if that makes a difference.
 
Depends what screen you're in I think. I generally do Ctrl-A to select all and then paste into Excel. You have to do some cleaning up, but I've got a few macros and tricks to get it done quickly.
 
I've tried two computers, both on MSIE 11, and FireFox 26, and Google Chrome 32. Wish knew how you were getting it to select ANY text, ctrl-a or not. Nothing work here.
 
Hmmm... I can't do it anymore either. I don't think it's because their website is crap (it is... but that's different). I think they locked it down on purpose. Good for them.

You can't do it straight from the My Organize page anymore either, but If you use the "Print collection" button you can. If you don't pay, too bad I guess.

I've tried on my computer at work, desktop at laptop at home, using a total of 8 different browser brands/versions across those computers. Could it be account specific? So weird.
 
i just tried as well.. no luck as I copy directly from beckett into ebay to make things easier.. i guess those days are over.
 
Are you guys trying while logged in to Beckett? I haven't actually logged into Beckett in I can't tell you how long, and I have no issues. Also, have you tried clearing out your computer cache and temporary internet files? That may be hindering you as well.
 
Weird! I can "copy" text by selecting if I am NOT logged in. As soon as I login, I can't.

And yes, cleared cache, temp files, etc.
 
I just try it, ans it works... my wants are :
2006-07 Black Diamond Gold #206 Paul Stastny
2006-07 Ultimate Collection Ultimate Debut Threads Patches #DJPS Paul Stastny
2008-09 Be A Player Player's Club #215 Simeon Varlamov
2008-09 O-Pee-Chee 1979-80 Retro Blank Backs #800 Simeon Varlamov
 
I can copy and paste with Internet Explorer 8 at work even when I am logged in but not at home with the newest version of browsers...really anoying! I am a full member and cannot copy and paste description of a card anymore even when I click on the card to see the full description.
