Permenant want list
Is there a place on the fourm where we can post a permanent want list that sellers (or other members) can browse? It may help with bumping and re-posting. Also, may help us connect with the cards we need, first page threads vanish pretty quick sometimes. I don't know, just a thought.

I have a 'shopping list' in my word documents. Maybe that sort of angle would be more appropriate.
Of course, the BST is full of WTBs and lots of folks add their needs to their post signatures. |
I think it's a great idea. Maybe another link across the top that is sortable once clicked on?

Great idea

I'd want it to be a specific bounty list ie. t205 hoblitzell no stats, not just the looking for t205 or buying sets of all kind sort of want list.

I like the idea, but it would have to be searchable, since many of us have lengthy want lists and I doubt anyone would take the time to scour through everyone's. For example if I had a '56 Mantle to sell, I could type that in and it would tell me which guys are looking for that particular card, then I could just shoot off PM's to those few guys in a matter of a minute or two. If it was too cumbersome and time consuming, no one would use it....I would think anyway. |
List limits.

Great idea! If searchable, this will help buyers and sellers alike. I'm sure we all have cards sitting in our collections that we aren't attached to that might be high on another collector's wantlist.

I suppose a new subsection could be added to the B/S/T section called member wantlists or something like that, and maybe each member is given one "post" to lay out all he wants (or even adding all he has to trade), which can be revised as need be. That would be somewhat searchable through the advance search function, where you can limit your search for say "Cobb" to that section and all members with a Cobb card on their list would be identified. I still have not been able to see the search function capture quoted phrases or use other means so that you could find "1915 Cobb" or "Crackerjack Cobb"-- as I understand it such a search would yield all 1915s and all Cobbs or all Crackerjacks and all Cobbs. If there are search refinements/filters that I'm missing, great and please share, but that's a possible start. [Being in the B/S/T would require membership too, so you wouldn't be bothered by outsiders and would have a little more privacy from unwanted solicitations--there at least would be accountability]

I think it's a great Idea but creating the database would be the tricky part. I'm not very tech savy but I would certainly use the feature.

If a Net54 members consolidated want list is created (I'm all for it), I think it would work best if the individual cards wanted are grouped by set rather than by member - i.e., all the T206 Tolstoi cards wanted would be grouped together, as would all the E145 1914 Cracker Jack cards wanted, etc. And, within each set, I suggest cards be listed alphabetically by the players' last names. Also, I would limit each participant's wants to a maximum of 20 or 25 cards.

You Can't Always Get What You Want

but if you get what you want, the list isn't permanent. Was it?:eek: |
