Real life situation illustrating why SGC's new Pop report worse-than sucks:
Lets say I am trying to determine how many Honus Wagner, Street Clothes, W600's there are. So I go to SGC's pop report to see how many they have graded...
Well, I can no longer search by Player or any keyword whatsoever, including year. I can only search by set name (see pic 1).
So, I type in W600 -- because that is what the set is called -- and guess what, "No Result Found" (see pic 2). So the only way to search is by set name, yet I cant search W600 by its name.
Luckily, we know the W600 set is a Sporting Life set, so I search "Sporting Life". Bingo! 19 different results come up, half of which could be applicable to my query (see pic 3).
So, I start clicking on each potentially applicable one, having to start a new search every time I go back on my phone, and getting all sorts of confusing results. I have no clue now how many W600 Wagner Street Clothes have been graded by SGC now (god forbid I wanted to determine type 1 from type 2).
And here is the best part - look at the list: How are we to know the difference, if any, between
1902-11 Sporting Life
1902-11 Sporting Life Cabinet
1902-11 Sporting Life Cabinets
And then you have all the references to different years and differences in the same year between a Cabinet and Cabinets???!!!!
I mean, I think a 5 year old could do better than this.
