Is Anyone Updating the SCD Card Catalog?

I agree with what Adam said (hey Adam). We have enough pricing tools already. Prices can change quickly so anything printed will be out of date when it leaves the printer.
How are you going to price a card like this one below, which needs to be added if this project ever gets started? What we need is to add things to the catalog, imo. Burdick did it with his Card Collectors Bulletins and always considered his ACC as a work in progress. Full speed ahead!! (who's driving?) And of course, Burdick never liked the value aspect of cards, which is why he listed them low. He didn't want to see the hobby become what it has .

That being said, who said this has to be a for-profit project?

Leon, if this is not done as a for profit project, eventually there will be less people involved. And yes I get this board is good for not needing prices but I'm thinking of, ahem, a wider audience.

If you want to do a project for people of this board it's fine to think of updating a catalog this way. If you want a greater reach, you got to have prices at least as a baseline. Having actually, you know, worked for such an outfit, trust me when I say, pricing is what makes things go better. And that's why it's called a catalog. I guarantee you the #1 question you will get from anyone not active on this board will be: "What is this worth" and to have a baseline is a great start.

Y'all need to crowdfund this thing. If Leon, Al, and Rich are on board it'll get support.
