Default A part of the registry that doesn't get talked about much.....

is the subjective "weights" that are given to each card in a set. I know the Clemente master set really well and have gotten into some communication in the past about changing weights. What I was told at the time is that the weight is based on the value of each card in PSA 8 condition. In the first place, not every card is eve available in that condition, second many trade hands so rarely it is difficult to determine value of each card in that condition. Lastly - even trying to go by that - their weighting is way off - I suspect this is FAR from isolated to the Clemente master set.

So whoever was working this new cross registry would need to have/develop some type of relatively fair/equitable system for assigning weights to each card in a given set.

BTW while I do not have the technical expertise to do any actual development - I am happy to act in a role as beta tester and contribute ideas and help to make it happen and refine it.
