I used to be pretty active on the old Beckett boards, but got out of the hobby. After looking around the new forums yesterday, I was pretty interested in how the new Organize system works, so I started uploading a bunch of cards and adding notes. It's a bit time consuming, but useful.

This morning, I opened the site back up to add more, and now I can't access my Organize without paying for it. Really? I can understand letting people know from the start that there's a fee, but I never knew there would be a fee involved as I spent a few hours working with it yesterday.

It seems like amazingly disingenuous way to get people to subscribe, and brought my interest in Beckett to a screeching halt. Whoever thought this was a good idea for a business model isn't terribly bright.

Granted, $20 a year isn't an exorbitent fee, but having been a member of this site when prices and collection databases were free, letting me in to the Organize feature only to spring a fee the next day feels like a bait and switch.

Meh.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Beckett.

If my memory serves me right, it should still be free/accessible if you kept it under 100 cards... Did you place more than that?

I added about 60 cards yesterday, but I think it imported cards that I used to have in my old Beckett collection database.

I don't know, had I known about the $20/year fee I'd have signed up, but finding out by blocking my access makes me spiteful enough to just ditch the whole thing.

if its under 100 cards then it is free.. contact a mod and see if they can fix it out
