The one site that was shared a while back has been completely dead since Brother's War:

https://mtg.precondb.com/downloads/

If someone has an alt site, that would be awesome!

You'll just have to move the columns over from one to the other.

I'll walk you through what I'd do.

First, go get the export from other site you want. LEt's call that SourceCSV (SCSV)

Then, download the CSV for Deckbox. (DBCSV)

Unfortunately, access to the template and documentation aren't great right now, so here's access to download a relatively blank Template to drag stuff over from:

Google Drvie CSV File

Next, understand the fields you're moving over to on the DBCSV.
Here's some basics you need to know:

1. Count is how many you own (per printing, per, condition, per foiling status) so you may have 6 copies but if it's different statuses, you'll need to make a new line for each.

2. Tradelist Count: How many do you want in your Tradelist, if you want to set it at 0 now, that's fine but doing this in bulk is way easier than one at a time.

3. Name has to be exact. Commas, apastrophes and hyphens are all critically placed.  If you have a split card it needs to be like: Farm[space]//[space]Table - a Double Slash

4. I think this is newer, I've always had a pain writing the sets as they are entered with their full name, but if you can just enter the set code, which it looks like you can, that's a lot easier.  Pro tip! Almost all Commander sets in the past few years are the setname with a C at the end.  March of the Machines: MOM Commander: MOC, Wilds of Eldraine: WOE Commander: WOC

5. Having the set numbers is crucial especially in sets with multiple variants - if you're inport data doesn't have it, do it manually

6. Condition is the full word from this list: (i.e. Near Mint, Lightly Played) - it is likely you will need to "Translate" some of these from your other output

7. Language is the full word (English, Spanish, French, etc.)

8. Foil and all the things like Signed, Misprint, etc, is Yes or blank

9. If you started using tags you can enter them here, it's Comma Seperated, no spaces and I'd recommend making them before uploading them.

After you understand those, start copying over full columns, so copy cells from for "Card Name" from SCSV and paste them under the appropriate header in the DBCSV. They may not be named identically, but you should be able to figure it out.

Once all the columns are addressed, use the notes I gave you above and start "Find and Replace" in the new sheet.  So for instance let's say they export condition as NM, LP, MP, HP - you need to convert that to deckbox so find:NM (in the condition column only) and replace with:Near Mint 
You'll need to do this for every irregularity above, but once you do it once, you know what to look for and it goes quick.
Save that file as a CSV and upload on the Inventory page.  IF there's issues you'll get errors.  Go back to the DBCSV file fix those errors and reupload.

Hope that helps!

Sebi,

This may not be exactly what Dexpired is asking for, but I would love to be able to SEE those numbers too as a field (it could be hidden by default) - so whether I'm in Decks, Inventory or Trading I can see the Card Number.

I've said this elsewhere, but this should be an always visible thing on any trade page.  Having to mouse over each item to know which printing is a bit tedious when you obviously already have that info.

As a filter, it would be great to have is less than/equal to or  greater tham/equal to as a way to filter only certain printings in a search.  So If I want only the standard printings of the new WOE set in my inventory I could do:
Set: WOE
Foil: No
Set Number: >/= 276

I can't think of any but maybe there will be times when people want to find this for multiple sets so just adding it as a filter seems useful.

Also just a small bump on this.  If you can describe how to do the split, that would be awesome.

Tested and it worked removing from inventory.  It also works if something was added to a trade not available, and the setting of qtty available changes on the card page it updates the trade.  This is now working as expected.  Cheers!

On a more important note: I think a few bugs may be present.

I had a trade where the printing the other trader wanted was listed wrong, so I went into my inventory and changed it to be the correct one

- Captain N'ghathrod 646 was listed as having 1 for trade
- went in inventory and changed that printing to Captain N'ghathrod 640

That should now say I have an unavailable item in the trade but it did not.  It still said I was trading him a 646, even though none were available.

I reloaded the page, still there.  I tried using the quick qty. switch on the trade page and it did not show 640 was in my inventory on that screen.

I went to add 640, and it turned the 646 into trading 2 copies.

I was only able to resolve by removing 646 completely and adding new the 640.

I saw something similar with another card. Burnished Hart Retro #71.  IT was in a trade but my qty available seemed wrong.  So after confirming it was incorrect I went into editions and added 1, so my total qty now was 2, 1 available for trade.

I pulled up the page for that printing and it still only shows 1 copy and 1 for trade even though that does not match the edition page.  I reloaded multiple times to confirm.
