When I filter for cards with a Rarity of "Special" I get cards that were printed with that rarity even if the copies I own do not have that rarity.

For example, Tromokratis is a promo card from the Born of Gods Launch Party. But it's also a a regular rare. And when I apply the special rarity filter I see both copies instead of just the promo version.

If you want the rarity feature to show cards that were printed with a certain rarity, regardless of whether or not the copy you own has that rarity, maybe there should be two different rarity fields just as there are two different edition fields (ie. edition printed in vs. edition owned in)

So I have an unhinged foil Island on my wishlist and according to that they're selling for $7.84. Thinking that's a great price (esp since they're selling on eBay for $50) I click on the green "Buy this card now" link and that doesn't pull up foil unhinged Islands - that pulls up Islands from every expansion ever and doesn't provide a way to filter that list. It seems like that'd be a useful feature.

Right now if you click "Show Value" it shows you the value of your entire collection and ignores any filters you might have in place. I think it'd be nice if it showed only the value of those cards that the filter is showing. It also still says prices are from tcgplayer.com when in fact they're not. Quoting the text that comes up when you click "Show Value"...

Seems like that ought to be changed too.

It'd also be nice if it told you how many cards there were after the filter was applied. Right now it tells you how many cards you have without the filter - not with it. You can kinda extrapolate how many cards you have based on the number of pages but it'd be nice if it just told you outright.

Finally, the "Is Foil Equals False" filter doesn't seem to work. It doesn't just exclude foils - it only includes promo cards and autograph cards.

When viewing all users for a certain geographic area it'd be cool if you could sort by parameters like "total value of inventory" or "total cards in inventory".

Doing something like this wouldn't be very efficient:

SELECT username, totalValue
FROM (
    SELECT username, SUM(value) AS totalValue
    FROM users
    JOIN cards ON cards.user_id = users.user_id
    WHERE location = 'Texas, USA'
    GROUP BY username
)
ORDER BY totalValue

But maybe there could be a total value column and a total cards column in the users table. The total cards column would be updated every time a card was added or removed and the total value column could be updated every time someone clicked the "Show Value" button on a particular inventory.

It'd be nice if you could create multiple groups for cards in your Inventory.

For example, with groups, I'd probably have one called "Money cards", "Junk rares", "Slivers", "Foils", "Bob's cards", etc.

Maybe these "groups" could operate similarly to tags in gmail idk. I just want to be able to compartmentalize my collection.

Thanks!
