Just noting that there is definitely interest in some kind of accurate tracking of these tokens. After I first encountered them, I basically have avoided adding them to my deckbox inventory.

Hi, just wanted to bump this request for the Unstable variants.

The card face for Ghazbán Ogress is missing. It shows the card back.

When you hover over the Unglued version of the basic lands, the screenshot appears with a silver border. In reality these were printed with black borders.

Bump.

Coming at it from the other end, I see something like https://deckbox.org/mtg/Cerulean%20Wisps?printing=4593 where the average price is $1.30 but the current prices are pennies.

I don't understand how these prices are working. https://deckbox.org/mtg/Paper%20Tiger?printing=13385 has an average price of $0.97 and a minimum price of $1.52.

Hi, I have a set of the 15 oversized promo general cards that came with the original five Commander decks. I'm looking to trade them as a set in the $15-18 range.

That would be:
Oros, the Avenger
Numot, the Devastator
Intet, the Dreamer
Vorosh, the Hunter
Teneb, the Harvester
Ruhan of the Fomori
Zedruu the Greathearted
Ghave, Guru of Spores
Karador, Ghost Chieftain
Riku of Two Reflections
Damia, Sage of Stone
The Mimeoplasm
Tariel, Reckoner of Souls
Animar, Soul of Elements
Kaalia of the Vast

This is in reference to the shapeshifter card from unhinged whose name is all underscores.

Clicking on it redirects to http://deckbox.org/games/mtg/cards with the error message "No such card found. Please check your spelling, or use a partial name."

Bumping because I have one more set of these.

The "I have received cards" button is supposed to compare and deduct the cards from a user's wishlist, but it is too strict. Almost all of the cards on my (and presumably most) wishlists are not going to be specified down to the edition/language/condition level. However, almost all the cards in people's inventories (and therefore on the other side of most trades) will have that information filled out. When the trade is completed, the site then compares the filled out info from the other person with the not-filled-out info in the wishlist, decides there is no match, and leaves the wishlist untouched.

This basically means that for every single trade, for every single card, manual intervention is required to keep a wishlist up to date.

The ideal way that this should work is that specific detail should not contradict generic info, but the other way around should block wishlist interaction. If I have a card on my wishlist with no details specified and trade for one which has edition, language, and/or condition filled out, the site should treat that as having satisfied my wishlist and should decrement the count. However, if I *do* have some of those filled out and trade for one which does not match, the site should treat that as not having satisfied my wishlist and should leave it unmodified.

I'd be interested in Ghave and Karador. What would you be interested in?

I was hoping to trade them as full sets. Individually I don't know if that would be worth it. I took a look on eBay and recent auctions for the set of 15 have gone for $10ish-$20ish (with some bizarre outliers like one for $50) so I was thinking it might be possible to value them at around $15.

Hi, I'm bumping this in case anyone is interested in trading for these. I have two sets of the 15 oversized promo general cards that came with the original five Commander decks.

That would be:
Oros, the Avenger
Numot, the Devastator
Intet, the Dreamer
Vorosh, the Hunter

After the most recent db changes to allow for specific editions, I find the autoremoval of the cards you just received from your wishlist and the cards you sent from you inventory and tradelist to be more of a hassle. I find that almost every card requires manual intervention. A frequent scenario might be that I have specified a need for card X with no additional details but that the trading partner has filled out some of them. Even though the card I have just received has details that are a subset of what is specified on my wishlist, the wishlist is not decremented. If I had specified a very granular level of detail on my wishlist, then I would expect the trade autoremoval tool not to touch it, but not if the wishlist is as broad as possible.

I believe the following text is missing.

"3: there is no section 3"

Just adding a voice to this request.

If I receive a card which has some metadata filled in (language, set, etc.) but my tradelist just contains the card name and quantity with no metadata, I don't believe it is deducted properly. I can understand why the tradelist wouldn't be updated if it had greater specificity than the received card, but if it has less then I feel it should count.

I think that was behavior I saw during the site transition concerning a trade that was started before the change. I just (like just now) performed the same procedure for a trade set up after the site change and my inventory and tradelist do seem to have been modified correctly.

This isn't a bug, but it did cause a bit of confusion at first. In the trading opportunities, there are now sometimes blank rows which nevertheless have quantities, prices, and editions. I believe this is occurs because it omits the name for consecutive duplicate card names where one party of the trade has indicated that they have editions from multiple sets for trade.

Now that I know what (I think) is going on it's ok, but I think there might be a better way of displaying such information. Similar to the inventory screens, perhaps a blue/white row offset pattern where the same card names are displayed but in a contiguous block of the same color row?

After clicking the button which indicates that I have completed my portion of the trade, a popup asks if the site should also remove those cards from my inventory and tradelist. I clicked ok as per usual, but those cards were still present.

A trade that was created and in progress before the site change is having problems. I have received the other person's cards and am trying to click the button saying I have now sent mine. A page is generated saying that the site owners have been notified of the error, but I thought I'd report it here just in case. I know how server error logs can get...

I think it might be dependent on sorting. Filtering for "underground" with the default sort I see the icon displaying correctly for Underground Sea. http://deckbox.org/sets/36471?f=17dW5kZXJncm91bmQ*

However, sorting by price almost no cards on the first page show as being in decks when almost all of them should be. I didn't check exactly but I know for my high value cards it should be the exception that it's not in use somewhere as opposed to the rule. http://deckbox.org/sets/36471?s=j&o=d

Same thing when sorted be edition. Underground Sea on page 23 shows as not in decks. http://deckbox.org/sets/36471?o=a&p=23&s=b Ditto other cards on that page which aren't such high value ones like Sengir Vampire and Swords to Plowshares, while strangely the one Revised Sol Ring shows as being in use.

The "this card is present in your decks icon" seems very inconsistent. There are cards I know are in decks for which it is not displayed. What exactly are the rules governing when this icon is or isn't displayed?

When I sort my inventory by price, I see duplicates of cards that aren't actually in my inventory. So for instance, I know that I have only one Arabian Nights Mountain, but when sorted five appear. http://deckbox.org/sets/36471?s=j&o=d

If I just leave the standard sort, filter by card name "mountain", and scroll down to see the Arabian Nights entry, it correctly displays that I only have one. http://deckbox.org/sets/36471?f=17bW91bnRhaW4*

I've been noticing some pretty out of whack prices, too. Seems like quite a few cards from around Revised/4th Edition have clearly bogus max prices at some stores.
