With the added option oflisting a card with "No Team", when are we to use it?  Is this for Checklists, Certificate of Authencity and people without a designated team affiliate?  Or when?  I think we need some clarification on this.

Yes to all three of those, also Sponsor cards, mail in offers, etc. I have been told in the past that if it is not team specific it gets a No Team. I have a few minor league sets that need to be fixed as way back as far as this year (UGH) I was still adding team name to sponsor cards in a team set. Thank god for editing permissions eh.

All those.  But don't type "No Team" in the team field.  Just select "No Team" from the dropdown menu and it will leave a blank field (actually it puts a single space in the field).

That is what I thought but as I was adding sets with COA, I marked them with No Team just to have someone come up behind me and delete the No Team on all of the COA.  I respect the member who was doing this as a strong contributor to the site so I thought I would ask.

C2,  I will need to try that.  I was typing in "No Team" when I added the single card insert.  I don't think there is a drop down menu at that instant but I will check.  If there isn't (I am almost sure there isn't), maybe Admin needs to find a way to make it that when No Team is typed in, it does not show up on the card site.

That was me correcting. You're right, there's no dropdown menu when creating the insert listing. Never noticed that before.  Good suggestion for Admin.  Either recognize "No Team" or put it as an option when creating the insert. Guess for now, leave it blank and after it's created go to the card and use the dropdown menu. 

@sandy; I noticed the Perez COA actually has a picture of Perez on it.  I'd think that COA is a candidate for a team and name link.

Yes C2, I saw it was you correcting it; that is why I wondered which way we were supposed to go on this.  Good eyes on the Perez COA; I never noticed. I picked up these sets last week and saw that the Premium sets had not been listed here. They are not listed in my references neither.  I believe there is a base set foreach one of these as well, 39 different players all together though not all are in the database yet. I hesitate toenter themas There were supposed to be 100 different players issued by Front Row but I think the company got out of card making before all the players were released.  I did notice that the COA for the different sets had 3 or 4 variations of them, almost home made.

While on this topic, I did not upload the George Kell checklist; should a COA have a print run, i.e. PR5000 note? Technically there is 5000 different COA, one for every number issued.  I did not put it on the sets I entered.  The Larsen set does not have the PR entered neither.

For these sets that have a serial numbered COA but the cards are not, the actual cards from the set should all have the PR## (each card gets the PR##). The COA should get a SN##, since it will be serial numbered (just like any of our favorite insert cards).

Makes sense.
