How to maintain dual inventories
 
Hello.

I'm a collector and a player, so I'd like some way of being able to record
my card inventory by which I'll be able to differentiate between those
cards in my collection, and those in my play box.

My first thought was to use something like "card quality" to separate the
inventories, however I'd also like to be able to really differentiate
quality too.

Also, how does one note signed cards vs regular cards...

Thanks in advance,

R.

For which game system?
you do mean cards autographed by the artist, correct?

If so, a new style has to be added to each card. you should contact the
datafile author about this.

How to maintain dual inventories
 
Given that any card can be signed, would it be worth just adding a "signed"
inventory slot, or are people actually going to track condition of signed
cards?

This is going to get ugly for the larger systems if we double the inventory
count to add a ", signed" entry for every card.

Yeah, I won't get any more detailed than that I expect.

Hmmm, they are just going to love me.

Looks like I'll be having to maintain my own set of datafiles. Bugger.

I'd like to track condition as well, because if I have a poor signed card
I'd certainly
like to replace it, and knowing that a card needs replacing will be vital
in that instance.

Maybe Rob will have a brilliant answer for me/us?

It's not that big of a deal since the user can display only the styles
they want to see.

Inventory Management -> Settings -> Restrict Styles

I have autographed as a style for the cards in the WarCry datafiles.

Can't you create a dual inventory by importing the data files into two
separate directories? Then one set could be your signed cards...

So I guess I could add "autographed" and "autographed, foil" as styles.

I don't know if I'd want to for DBZ. I think I already have 6 separate
styles already. I'd have to go up to at least 12 then.

For B5, there are official signed cards (well, signed and stamped) that
I really should keep track of. For that matter, some have different pen
colors -- should I keep track of stamped and signed with a black pen and
signed with a blue pen? (I'm thinking not.) Beyond that, there are the
ones that have been just autographed in the regular ad-hoc manner. Since
any card can become a signed card, having each data author do this
seperately is a hassle.

you may want to enter those cards as a different set (promos).
