I'm having issues with the site constantly reverting back to opening the sellers tab by default. What's the behavior here supposed to be?

The tabs are sticky. Whichever one you were on last will be the one that is open next time you open a card info page.

Edit: It looks like the link to Gatherer isn't working quite right. When I click the link it brings be to Gatherer, but not the card page. Instead I get a server error page. See below.

2nd Edit: Besides this issue all of these changes are much appreciated! smile

Have 4x 8th Edition Ensnaring Bridge
Want 4x Stronghold Ensnaring Bridge

Easy peasy.

I have a handful of things you're looking for. Discussion started.

After applying changes in the lightbox the "In your decks" section disappears. This happens whether or not any changes are made.

Oh let's do one more bump just for giggles.

As a seller it would be really nice for the order page to have a printable version. As a seller over on TCG I've gotten used to being required to print out a packing slip to include with the order and it would be good to have something like that here as well.

So the only difference is that instead of real money to trade we will have virtual money to trade. You do realize that being able to include some cash to balance out a trade has been an option forever, right?

Also, with the setup you just proposed, no fees are ever avoided. Isn't that what you were trying to achieve from the beginning? No Paypal fees?

I don't disagree that this could have many possible advantages, but I still don't think it will work.

Look at the way that payments are handled today:
1) Buyer pays through paypal.
2) Paypal transfers funds directly to the seller's paypal account minus fees (Paypal is 3% + 30c)(DB is 6.9%).

Your suggestion is to turn it into this:
1) Buyer pays through Paypal.
2) Paypal transfers funds directly to Deckbox minus fees (3% + 30c), and seller gets DB bucks of equal value.
3) Seller is free to choose when to cash in DB bucks for real money minus DB fees (6.9%).

Results:
1) Paypal gets it's fees no matter what.
2) Deckbox makes less money since some of the fees they would collect are tied up in DB bucks.
3) Seller gains the option to trade his/her DB bucks, but after cashing in would net the same amount of real money as in the current method.

Is that really what you want to happen?

Oh, and don't forget that the DB devs would actually have to develop it. That takes time and money too. Plus, DB would then be handling everyone's real money instead of just collecting fees which, I imagine, could be problematic.

10% is the tied with ebay and lower than TCG by 1%. Shipping prices are universal so those will always have to be paid no matter which site you sell on. As for a site currency, it personally wouldn't serve a purpose for me. When I sell something I don't want imaginary internet money, I want real USD in my checking account and adding this currency would just be an extra step for me to get it there. In the end the result would be the exact same anyway as Deckbox would have to transfer the real money through Paypal. I understand that a site currency could be beneficial for people that are going to sell/buy/trade ONLY on Deckbox, but I bet the vast majority of Deckbox users do those transactions other places as well.

Chimeric Idol's ability will work even if all of your lands are already tapped. The effect doesn't say that it requires any untapped lands to work. As for the Mutavault interaction your assumption is correct. Mutavault ability says "It's still a land," so Chimeric Idol's ability would tap it. Of course there are other ways to use it, but I've found the best way to use Chimeric Idol is as an attacker with protection from sorcery speed removal when all of my land is tapped anyway. Hope this helps!

On a different, but similar note, every time I try to login to DB on my phone it fails the first attempt and the second attempt always succeeds. The error I receive is "500 Internal Server Error." This definitely isn't a big problem as I can just login again and it will work the second time. Just thought I would bring it to your attention.

Edit: Should probably mention that I'm using a Blackberry 9810. That right there could be the whole problem. wink

On the deck page, you can quick edit inventory/tradelist/wishlist numbers by clicking on the green or yellow shaded boxes to the left of each of the cards. If you don't particularly care about marking card editions or conditions then there is another, faster option. On the upper-right of the deck page, under tools, there is a print option. This will bring up a printer friendly version of your decklist. From here you can quickly copy your entire decklist which you can then paste into "import card list" on your inventory page.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions!

Glad I could help smile

Bump. Slowly inching forward.

As the title says, the Chrome plugin AutucardAnywhere will mess up the list of decks if any of them have a card in the name of the deck. For instance, I have decks with the cards Library of Leng, Melek, Vorel, Uril, and Omnath in the name of the deck and because of this the links to my decks are replaced with links to the card and the links to my other decks are disabled. This is due to the recent update to the plugin.

To fix (95% sure)
1) Select AutocardAnywhere in the upper-right of your browser,
2) click the options button
3) Select the Links tab
4) Uncheck "Add popups to existing card links"

This option was present before the update, but now it's just in a different spot.

I'm not sure if you plan on implementing separate foreign card prices, but foreign black border cards are often worth much more than their English white-border counterparts. I'm thinking dual lands, city of brass, etc.

On the zendikar full art land pricing that was quoted above, of course they get cheaper when you buy 10-20+ of them.

Everything gets cheaper when you buy in bulk, why would that mean the prices don't count? Do people really buy full art zen lands individually anyway?
http://store.tcgplayer.com/magic/produc … full%20art
Range looks like $0.93 - 1.89 to me with only 2 above the $1.50 mark.

It seems pretty obvious to me that by clicking on "Pay with Paypal" that this is when you're committing to purchase the cards. You've selected your address, selected a shipping option, and can see the total amount for the order before and after shipping. What more are you expecting?

The pricing on zendikar full art lands is incorrect. Deckbox has them at < 50 cents each. I don't see them anywhere for less than $1.50, $2 in most cases.

3 most recent sold ebay listings:
18 for about $15 - 83c per
209 for $190 - 91c per
15 for $14.50 - 97c per

Definitely not $1.50-2, but definitely also not 59c.

Solemn Simulacrum should be in almost every edh deck ever.

Also:
Yavimaya Elder
Wurmcoil Engine
Sakura-Tribe Elder
The Kamigawa Dragons
Ashen Rider

I'm guessing this is for a Child of Alara build?

Then you changed something in such a way that in those list views, AutocardAnywhere is no longer working.  I appreciate that its easy to deflect whatever change was introduced when I guess wrong about what you did, but that doesn't alter the fact that there was a change and that it negatively impacts me and likely others and the visible expression of that change is in the pop-up behavior.

Sloejack, Sebi said they didn't change anything regarding the pop-ups. Trust him when he says stuff. As for AutocardAnywhere pop-ups not working, it probably is an issue with the addon being unable to replace pop-ups. The addon still works everywhere else on Deckbox where DB pop-ups don't automatically happen. I don't recall AA pop-ups ever replacing DB pop-ups.
