Not concerned about correct valuations, but would like it to have the ability to export to excel to create periodic valuations on my own for insurance purposes etc... Let me know if there is anything out there.

You might check with Rich Klein. He might know of something.

There use to be some checklist programs which were available for sale but I have not heard much about them in recent years.

I get what you want to do but right now the scope of doing this is immense (as COMC found out a couple of years ago)

Doing my best David Cycleback Imitation Here with the post following a post

I think the best way to do this is in bits and pieces -- this might be a way for Old Cardboard to monetize their vintage data base and checklist efforts

There is a really good non-sports checklist area as well.

Then other people can add to that but the whole task for sports and non-sports is huge.

But if you want one way to do this, the best data base by far is the Beckett data base. And they still add to their DB with not only the new releases but other things as people such as me find them, when their marketplace dealers need checklists added or when grading comes up with cards not in the DB.

Thanks for all the info guys. Looks like there is a hole out there for an industrious person to create something. Unfortunately I'm not that industrious!

vintagecardprices.com has what you are looking for I think. We cover all sports and non sport cards. All of the set lists are available to see for free. If there are cards missing in a set just contact us and we will update it.

I've been looking for this same type of database also, only sortable by team (i.e., all cards showing LA Dodgers players, regardless of year/manufacturer). Beckett is decent, but it is not complete, and it is a total PITA to convert to Excel.
