Although there have been some new changes, I still believe there are some big ones that need to be taken care of though.
A lot of cards I have are Promotional cards. A lot of the earlier Promos (foil or not) were FNM promos but before it really labeled "FNM" like the more modern cards are.
I've mentioned it a few times already, but Promo cards need a SET or EXPANSION to place them under, not a specific "flag". Promotional cards can range from FNM foils, Launch Party foils, Pre-Release foils, Judge foils, Grand Prix foils, and so-on.
There has to be a way to handle these because even TCGPlayer.com specifically handles each different version of each card, be it a foil, foreign, judge promo, etc.
Of course this request falls under the same issue, however, needs to be re-mentioned again: pricing of foils in general. Deckbox now separates all different versions of cards, but it will still only pull over non-foil prices for those cards. I cannot imagine TCGPlayer not being able to let you define the cards by foil or non-foil, as their own database is partitioned that way.
I have *a lot* of foils in my collection, including a lot of promo foils, and it badly reflects on my collection to use their non-foil prices. For many playable commons and uncommons that are $0.25 to $0.50, their foil equivalent can be between $5.00 - $10.00, and it would be nice to see deckbox reflect these real prices.
Thanks,
