I'm holding out hope that eventually we can transfer from one collection to another. Ideally I would be able to maintain the original colleciton date but in the new collection, instead of deleting from main collection and starting anew.
I have a couple thousand cards I can't enter as part of my collection because they are college cards but tagged to NBA or NHL teams, even though they are not NBA or NHL cards. (Example: Anything made by Classic).
I'm not working on the college collection for now, hoping that Admin will be able to implement that functionality. Or, if not, until they say for certain that it can't be done.
I am seriously debating documenting my duplicates/tradelist via a secondary collection. It's MUCH easier to click add to collection than add another to for trade/sale list. But I'm still a few years away from that. Plenty of time for Admin to make it even better than it already is.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

My reason for multiple collections are simple. I do not have one LARGE collection, I have three distinct "smaller" collections. Ranfords, Oiler RCs and everything else, hence why I want to keep them seperate.

I`m holding out where I can transfer my present main collection into a sub-collection. To re-enter my whole set collection into a sub-collection along with all of the traders I have is a task that I am not willing to take on just yet. Nor do I want to combine my two collections till I can do that or else it will be too confusing on what cards I am missing for any set. So for now, two separate IDs remain.

Do you keep the three as simply collection databases, including Want Lists, and do you trade and accumulate on each?

Good question Commish... Hey Ranford, do you trade with yourself, between the three collections? I mean, what else can you do when on a winter night in -100F weather?
-------------------------------
I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

I keep the three seperate to an extent. The Ranfords are all seperate, every single bit of his collection, the traders included. They are all listed under Ranfordfan, the Oiler RCs are under oilerRCguy on the DB but only my have's and wants, the dupes are all in my "everything else" collection. This one has not been entered yet and will include all other aspects of my cards. Sets, traders and inserts. Hope that helps. The only thing I trade with myself switzr are bad jokes and comments about you. =P At -100F all I worry about are socks without holes and booze for my coffee. At that temp the government makes us stay home, hence the booze! =)

A few additions:
- Added to the Change Log page is a tab to look at recently added prices.
- A dropdown box was added to the “Detailed Add” page to specify between “Collection” and “For Sale / Trade” list.
- A dropdown box was added to the “Collection” area of card pages to switch among collections (for those tracking multiple collections).
Thanks everyone for the suggestions.
