You used to be able to go to a card's page, click on "...listed in collections" and see any and all personal card images.  And all the other information is also no longer readily visible; Graded, Grader, Grade, Cond., SN#, AU.

Now you get this:

And clicking on +Collections gets you this:

So, no more knowing who has any personal card images uploaded or other information about the cards. You will have to click on each and every number in the blue block to see if they have a personal card image.

So many people wanted to rush to have the numbers listed instead of the card by card listing. I didn't want that either. Also can't tell condition or any of that other stuff. While we made great strides in the transaction manager and reports areas to make trading easier, it effectively shuts me down when it comes to looking for older cards (I do care - to a degree - about condition).

That is the problem with people not fully understanding the impacts of the changes/features they are requesting or voting for. Implementing a feature could have any number of unintended impacts. People vote based on the description of the feature at face value - there is no opportunity to provide or understand the downstream impacts.

Yes, totally ruined the ease of seeing the For Sale/Trade list with conditions and asking prices.

It seems like an easy fix would be to have those sections expanded by default.  It could even be a site preference in the settings.

Received response from Admin, he'll look into adding a button to "Expand All".

I concur that this is not a good change. It seems to me that it's just pointless excess clicking with no value added but some lost. I rarely use that feature but encountered that new screen for the first time last week. 

It wasn't broken before, "don't fix what ain't broke"

Really? I like it. No more having to scroll down a page to get to who has the card up for trade. No more counting rows to see how many are out there. When working on trade is a time saver. (refer to the name of the website) I no longer have to do all that work and now just click to cross-reference a card to see if there are a lot out there or very little and if I should add it to a trade proposal I'm working on, or there are a lot out there and I can go for another card that has a very low number up for trade. The new page is a Huge time saver for working on trade proposals. 

I see no use in knowing if the person has their own image of a card. With image software, the odds are you not looking at the cards as it really is. We do have a lot of pages on how to make an image better. But, That could be simple to add a button for people to click on it to see the image. If they want. Or maybe a mouse hover, pop-up box to show there is an image that you could also click on to make it full screen, then click on it to put it back. for everyone that wants to see the image. 

I do see the use for an "expand all" button. That would also be good to have on all pages with sets that have many variations. Having to go back to the top of the page and switch to another version, is a time killer when your working and many versions at the same time. We have all been there with a mixed stack of cards in hand and the "plus sign" is pointless when the listing in it, is not a link to get you to the page for the card. I center click a lot to open a tab for a link, so I can always have the list open in the first tab and go straight back to it and keep moving on. 

Having the page clean and short with options for all to go straight to what they want, is a win and a time saver.

I'm wit RJ on this one I like how it cleans up the page and you don't have to scroll thru guys who have 100 of 1 card to find next person. I guess it depends alot on how much you trade i usually do 20-30 a month so this make it easier.

As for the condition I cant tell in pics most of the time if there are problems, I would rather my trade partner tell me. Same as I always let partner know any flaws that I see when I pull and verify. Alot is personal choice I guess. 

I dont think I even have an personal images of cards. If during a trade someone wishes a scan I am more than happy to comply.
