I am going to go through my Phillies team sets, to get them straight , and more importantly OFF OF MY WANT LIST.......The other Donruss I have from those years will be removed from my sale/trade list with in the next few days to be recycled hopefully into some better cards.

I love the fact that we are entering these different variations into the database, but for my collection specifically, I really could not care less about whether my 5 cent Bruce Ruffing card from 1991 has a comma instead of a period. It would be really annoying to have to essentially put together, for example, 4 complete sets of 1989 Donruss in order to say you have a "master set." Then there are the error and correction cards on top of that (*shutters*).
The main reason I don't typically worry about error cards or variations from this era is that we don't know if we've ever found them all. So, you could think you finished a master set, but you later find out since you finished it that there are 5 new variations added. For me, I like to complete a set, and leave it considered "complete" for eternity. I don't want to have to do constant maintenance to keep it "complete."

Ok I am lost as last years Easter eggs
i see the difference between Factory set and the others
evsrything I look at is states copyright leaf 1990. On the other 2 cards with the same variation. What is the difference is it so minute where you have to get a magnifying glass or a black light to see the difference
ok I was being a smarty pants here. But seriously I don't see a difference both backs listed here look identical to me on the A and B variants

It's INC vs. INC. on the backs.
Still don't see it?
INC (no period) vs. INC. (with the period).
Scary huh?

I hate to revive an old thread, but can't find an answer to this. It appears all my 1991 Donruss are a variation other than what was originally entered. Is there a way to move the set and all 2000+ doubles to a different variant? I am sure the set could be deleted and re added, but the doubles probably have to be done one card at a time? If that is the case, they will stay put for awhile. Thanks.
Guess this wasn't that old of a thread.

Also is there a way to show all the cards, from any one set , that shows what we have and what we want? That way I could quickly know which cards that I have while trying to delete the variations from wantlist...? If that makes sense. All I see now is either haves or wants at any one time...
-------------------------------
I'm mostly organizing over adding right now.

Ron, I believe the "Add/ Update" from the Collection Summary page is what will show everything at once.

The green series is a lot easier to see than the blue, in my opinion.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

At my age I see dots when there isn't any and none when they are there.
