Hi there, I tried using the new add cards by number feature added recently. I had some duplicates in the cards I was adding, which resulted in a weird confirmation page where ALL cards (even those that did not have duplicates) ended up with a copy in the list with quantity = 0. In the below example, I had only entered Chili Davis twice, yet all the cards ended up with a quantity = 0 duplicate.

Ideally, adding duplicates would just increment the count for each card on this confirmation page...otherwise, I'm forced to enter any card with a duplicate manually.

I'm seeing now that the 1/0 behavior is because there are 2 variants of each card...however, the duplicates are still being ignored and that I think is still a bug that should be fixed.

Not a bug. If you enter a number once or 5 times, it shows up once. If you have multiples, that's what the confirmation page is for - to add them in then. I used this a lot when I was adding my inventory and this worked wonderfully.

That's not ideal behavior when entering in dozens of unsorted cards...just because it's a good enough solution for you doesn't mean it's a good enough solution for everyone.

Right now we have to:

a) guarantee the cards are sorted with all duplicates next to each other

b) if there are dupes, manually scroll the confirmation page to each dupe.

c) that requires me to have the dupes separated in the pile in the first place to know they require special treatment

It doesn't seem too hard programmatically to just count the dupes in the text entry field, will make the feature all that much better.

I guess it's up for debate whether this is a bug or not, so I went ahead and submitted a feature request. I'll link it here once/if it gets approved.

Just found this thread when trying to figure out the best workflow for entering my stacks of unsorted cards (divided by sets). Unfortunately, I don't even think I noticed this until I'd entered hundreds of cards.

For now, I guess I need to scroll through the confirmation to catch when there's a double row, then increase the count for the first row.

Ideally I enter cards as I rip them, to reduce the number of dupes, but I don't always have the time.

Does anybody else have any recommendations for the most efficient way they load cards into their collections?
