CardTarget Future

Please do whatever it takes to keep the site active, even if it requires a small fee. I use it often and find it very helpful. I tried VCP but did not like it at all...CardTarget is much better in my opinion.

The site is very good. Much easier to navigate and search that VCP. I would certainly pay a small user fee monthly to keep it going.

what these guys said... I'd be in for a subscription.

You do a great job and I'd hate to see you go.
With the others, I'd be glad to help with a small fee.
all the best in your decision,

you could also, to save hours of work, cap the number of sets you're at now and just update recent sales...

I'm an experienced programmer by trade and would be willing to donate some of my time to help with the day-to-days' of the site. It is much easier to navigate than VCP just needs a lot more sets added. Feel free to contact me shernan30@gmail.com

Same here - let me know if I can help.

Mike,

I still use the cert run feature and I've been forever grateful for you offering that program free of charge. I'd hate to see that go.

[CardTarget]

Thanks for the support everybody! I've gotten a lot of emails, questions, and introductions, so hopefully we'll be able to figure out how to keep the site going.

Also I've used the price history to find cards used in a few scams, most recently the fake Magie's and pink ghosts. Your site was key to getting them off the market.

I use Card Target several times a week. I'd definitely be willing to pay a small monthly fee to keep it going.

[Chris D.]

Don't go! I just discovered your site after getting back into the hobby. I would be fine with a subscription fee as well.

[shaunsteig]

It's a very nice site, which I use on occasion. There def is overlap with the data collated by VCP, though at times the presentation of that data is easier with CardTarget. I pay for VCP, so by similar thought would consider paying for CardTarget too. One thing that would help would be to better delineate (ie promote) the advantages and differences of your site over VCP.

Thanks,

I was just going to suggest this. If it was possible you could have "experts" in other sets add to the database.

[Jeffrompa]

I use it at least once a week myself . Maybe it is a goofy idea but what if it were made into an APP for inexpensive user fee ?

[hshrimps]

You need to get revenue from ads not subscriptions. Subscription model will not take you anywhere. Majority of people who "promised" they are willing to pay now won't pay at the end. Trust me on this!!! I have extensive experience on internet market research, even u have 7k subscribers now u would be lucky to have 1% of people paying you.

Don't even think about having volunteers to help out, you better off shutting down the site that way.
