I think it may be more because they may not be listed in Gatherer.

Not sure why it has a black border on the site, but Chronicles was indeed white bordered.

If I remember correctly: I think it's from Chronicles (which was white bordered), and I think the expansion symbol for this card in the set was a misprint (should have been Legends).

I just tested a few things exporting with my Tradelist for the first time (using Chrome). As long as I didn't choose "Details" I got the prompt to save the CSV. Otherwise, nothing when "Details" was selected. So, at least for me, only the "Details" column seems to be causing any issues.

Maybe have an option to have everything output in whatever language the user speaks?

^ This, and not only for export, but for the site as a whole. I do have some foreign cards I have acquired from some repacks and such over the years, and trying to locate them to add them to my collection can be difficult.

On a similar note, as I was adding some of my collection recently, I noticed a few of the various "Lim-Dûl" cards pull a price for the list, but do not provide a link to buy. I was originally assuming it might have something to do with the "û" being a special character, but...

Sample search

...4 cards provide a link, the other 4 don't.

OK, so...

Ordering by Color, I definitely see the results jump around in order when paging back and forth between the results (it may not be 100% of the time, but it does happen fairly often).

So far, I haven't noticed it when sorting by Cost.


Edit: For reference, here's the sample I was using against my own inventory -- http://deckbox.org/sets/130857?s=a& … 31!791.3.6

The order of results should be correct regardless of the pagination. Do you know by any chance in which situation it was wrong?

This was a couple of weeks ago that I noticed it happening, but I want to say it was the Color/Cost column. I'll have to test it again this evening when I'm off work and see if I'm still seeing it happen.

If I'm following correctly (and this is something I thought might be useful if I'm not), I think it comes down to being able to filter based on quantity owned.

So, for instance, you could say via filtering: Show me only Innistrad block cards where quantity owned = 0, and get a list of just the cards you do not own from that block.

Of course, the quantity owned filter could be non-zero as well, so you could do something like: Show me only Innistrad block cards where quantity owned < 4, in order to see just a list of cards where you don't have a complete "play set".

This could also help when marking cards for trade, since you could do something like: Show me only Innistrad block cards where quantity owned > 4, so you could get a list of only the cards where you have more than a "play set" that you can then review to mark some for trade.

Makes sense?

Just a couple of thoughts I had while messing with the deck builder on-site.

1. It could be nice to have a way to flag a deck in your list as active/current or something along these lines in order to indicate it is actually physically built, and not just an archived deck list for reference. This being an option directly ties in with #2.

2. Assuming #1 was possible, decks flagged as active would reflect the cards as being "used" from your personal inventory. This would help when building a new deck, so even though you may have 6 copies of a card, you know 4 of them are already being used in a currently built deck. So, without looking through all your decks individually, you'd know that you either need to choose a different card, break up an existing deck, or acquire more copies of the card in question in order to put another 4 copies of that card in another deck.

Thoughts?

Cool. Of note: The ones named <whatever> Avatar, with the UDON artist are the ones from MTG:Online, if you are only interested in importing the physical ones.

Vanguard does show up in Gatherer, you just have to do an Advanced search and choose "Include special items (e.g. Planes, Schemes)".

Edit: Eh... the [ ] brackets mess up the link. Fixed.

Just chiming in to voice my support. I also own the 4 Vanguard sets and would like to list them with my inventory. Counters/Tokens could be good too, I suppose. Also, I've noticed the Anthologies Box Set seems to be missing. Sure, they are all reprints, but in the same fashion as Chronicles, where they have updated dates, white borders... and even some misprints (including casting cost in at least one case I can think of). So, it seems possibly worthwhile to be able to track them separately.

Edit: Also, while I'm thinking about it, the site also seems to be missing the Deckmasters Garfield vs. Finkel Boxed Set. This set even has its own expansion symbol, much like the newer Duel Deck sets.
