For example Ogre Arsonist shows up as $.35 on my list, when the average is a lot higher.

When will Dark Ascension prices post to deckbox?

Bumping this up. Why aren't these visible yet?

I believe the process of importing the prices to Deckbox.org is a manual one for. They usually have everything in place within two weeks of launch which is still a handful of days away. Patience is a virtue ;)

Just curious as to why the prices for Dark Ascension haven't been added yet ?

The prices come from an aggregate and a Mysql db call for the card name, why would that require anything be done manually? Maybe you guys need some help.

That's correct but I believe, based on previous posts and announcements, that this information is still gathered through a manual process. Not manually as in hand-keyed but manual as in a human being has to set up and start the function that imports the data from TCG Player. I believe this choice was made to increase the overall speed of this website and the trade-off for this efficiency gain is a lag time between set launch and card/price data display.

On the topic of needing help; if you have code you've written that fully automates the price import process I am sure the site owners would be at least mildly curious. I can't speak for them but everybody likes free code if it's well written and modular. Feel free to post it here or find a way to send it to them if you don't want to make it public.

Looks like the prices are online. Cheers mystery deckbox admin !

Hey guys, thank you for reporting this, and for your patience. I have merged the various threads that were discussing this into one.

Tawnos is right, we did have a process which required some manual imput for new editions (not actually inputing prices, but trading some xml files with our price provider). This has for a couple of months been improved, and now it is an automated process.

We did however have some glitches with it, a couple of small problems made it that updating prices for Dark Ascension and also other MtG cards that had prices < 1$ was not working.

These are corrected now, everything should be fine. For future edition imports prices should come up the day or max next day after the prerelease.

Oh awesome, I didn't realize the process had been automated already. That is welcome news and I will try to commit that to memory. Thanks for clearing things up Sebi!
