Beckett Message Boards

In the old system if you looked at a card, it had a trade tab where you could see Haves and Wants for it. Is this feature gone now?

For now, but they are going to be adding something in the future that is going to be more in depth, give you a better feel for who's a better trader with you. Like who has cards you need for cards you want, etc. At this time though, it's not there.

Strange that a feature so important for collectors did not make it through the first round of migration.

They had to think about what was absolutely needed for people to access their OPG and that is more for trade, which isn't bound to the OPG (in my opinion). I think that's what happened, not sure. But it won't be long until that is back, I know the devs have a long list they're working from.

I just hope that "Long List" is on hold until the site is working right.

So what about those of us who's paid time is ticking and we can do anything? To be honest with you, Beckett offered us the right to be able to trade with and contact members and so on, as of right now, and I know that "they are working on it" but some of us have PAID YOU for services that you have now taken away. If the site was not ready you should have held it back till it was, I had active trade and messages that are now gone, I can't add cards to my organize, I can't make trades, and so on.

Beckett may be the leader in sports card information but you have no clue how to build, run, or maintain a website. The only thing that is saving you is the fact that there is no other site out there like this one but be aware that Beckett will face what MySpace faced, as soon as another competitor comes along you will go under and eventually completely gone, you might want to try and salvage the customers that you still have left. As for me, you won't be getting another penny of my money till the site works properly and is more than just a bunch of flashy pictures.

No, they have two lists. Needs and Like to Haves. Needs are first.

All I can really say is that they are working on it and what was working in test that isn't working now is their first priority. They want this site to work just as bad as you do, believe me.
