Duplicating more than one item at once - trince - 08-09-2011 04:55 AM
Is there anyway to duplicate more than one item at a time?
Having to duplicate half a set one card at a time is very tedious and slow.

They really don't want people to use the duplicate function, unless they really need to. <Puts a stress on the system by having extra records> What they do encourage is having extra tags on the card to indicate where you have the card. This is a real pain in the butt if you ask me, ask i build sets and have cards that i put into "Sets" and other cards that I leave as singles and i like to seperate the two.
If anyone has a better idea please feel free to express it.

This is the main reason I would like to duplicate multiple cards, to add sets. I don't understand why they don't have a +1 function or something that would allow a collector to add a complete set or large chunks of sets to a collection (or even better keep sets separate from singles). I made a suggestion that they allow us to have an extra account attached to our main account for sets only (ie for me a trince_sets account) but I am sure that was ignored. I can't believe they would be ignorant to collectors picking up complete sets and wanting to add them to what they already have. Adding one to each item one at a time is ridiculous. This has been an oversight in the old system as well as this one. I made suggestions several times on the old system that this be addressed on the new but, again, it was obviously ignored. Must not be enough people adding sets...
