I saw it and thought I just got it wrong. now that I'm looking. The last trade that I completed confirmed it.
If I'm looking for say 3 of the same card and I get one in a trade it will show I've got all 3 and my want list for the other 2 are gone and shows I have them.
So if I want 2 of the same card and get one it shows I got 2. and so on with the count. :(
Most people won't see this because they are working on one set only. I'm trying to get 3 sets One for me and my 2 nephews.
Now after every trade is completed I have to delete the set and reenter all my wants. For it to keep the numbers right. It's quicker to do that then to find all the ones that are wrong. :(

Do you list all wants in just one collection or like I do have a whole set (called 1st set) collection and a team set collection (by Decade)
Because I am not having that problem

I also see that when I click on remove all cards for collection it also removes all cards from my trade list. But there is a remove all cards from the trade list. Why is it doing both?
Being slightly color blind. I don't want my cards I have posted it's just another line I can't tell from the other two colors. augh! columns and rows is always the way to go.

If the cards don't automatically transfer from your trade partner's collection, you need to choose "Move to Collection" on just the one card you want to switch from "Want List" to "Collection". Doing just about anything else will mess up the system and your collections. That option is there for that reason.

I had some similar problems. Supposedly it was because I failed to click "package received"--I was going straight to "transaction complete".
Not sure if that helps.

automatically transfer? I'm lost on that one. I thought clicking the received and then complete was doing the work.
I do the received first, then go back and do complete 2ed. and that is when it does it.
OK, so where is Move to Collection? and when should I do that?
This is where we need how to videos on U-tube & or a live chat box Like Fanart.tv has on their page. That chat on the page gets you the answers in seconds and you can do a private side chat with friends. So your not getting in the way of the main chat window.
Also is there an instruction page somewhere in the forums? I sure could use some info on how things work. I've just been clicking and learning the hard way. lol

RJSMITH I sent a trade proposal for some cards I need and you want. Let's walk thru this
One of the cards you want 4 of and I only have 3 and about 5 other you want more multiples of of which I only have one of.
The automatic is where DATA BASE PLATFORM moves cards from my collection to yours.

I see what you saying.
The 3 Dykstra wants I had, all same card, same collection, ALL went IN TRANSIT mode even thou you only sending the one card. The Leiberthal did also
On the Dale Murphy both of those went to IN TRANSIT and I had one in two different collections.
Now this is new I have had many trades needing more then one PHILLIES card from a set and only one would change if one was sent.
To correct this all you need to do on the card page (click on card in trade transaction) and on drop down box select ADD TO WANT LIST and then remove to add one or Add Multiples for two or more. in top Box choose wantlist or collection or for trade

You can't fix them yet. You have to wait till it's completed. I tried it and after it went to complete they all were changed. :( The program It only sees the card, not the amount of that card. That is the info it's not getting right.
I just got a trade of 150 cards for 3 different sets. It will be quicker to just delete and redo my want list then it would be to find each card and fix the numbers. After all my want lists are now shorter.
I'm glad someone else is seeing this. Now that it is a known problem with the program not seeing the count. We can hope someone can fix it. I can only image how many people are trusting the program to count correctly. When it can't.
This explains why someone I'm chatting to thought they had a 2ed set completed but found out when they looked at there cards. They saw they are still missing cards and does not know why or how it happened.
This also explains why I never get someone offering me two of the same card that I'm looking for. They can't see it at there end.
It looks like when you propose a trade and looks at the match list. It is using what you have to trade, over what the other person is wanting. So when you see more than one of the same cards on the list. It is what you have to give, not what they want and everyone goes for one card because of this. I've done 2 of the same card once on a trade proposal thinking they wanted two because I saw two on the list and was told "I only want one of each. I don't know why you picked two but you can drop the doubles."
I'm so glad I go by My lists first and the database here is 2ed. But now I have to make my way through all my completed trade and redo all the want lists so they are correct again and do it after every trade, till I get a set down to wanting just one card with no doubles. A bit of a waste of time. But Humans are Smarter then programs. You just have to look and you will see. If there was one row for each card with columns showing a number with trade, have's and wants. someone would have seen the mistake long ago. It's easyer to remember a number you see then it is to remember a row of colors you have to count. All businesses use columns and rows so they don't make mistakes. It's just smarter and easier to see. Color-coded? and having to scroll down a screen and count the lines is madness. Let alone I'm slightly color blind. "card #440" - I IV IIX is even easier than 4 blue line, 2 red lines, 2 yellow lines.
There is always room for improvement. I wonder how many people here think they have a full 2ed or 3ed or 4th set but in truth, they don't. Everyone here really needs to know about this so they can fix their lists and we will need to be informed when the corrections are made so we can trust the program to count each card.
