I've organized my collection in the following manner:

• Main collection - For sets that I am working on, owned cards in collection and want list for missing cards
• Player 1 - One of my PC players, owned cards in collection with its own want list for missing cards
• Player 2 - One of my PC players, owned cards in collection with its own want list for missing cards
• Trade / Sell - Zero cards in collection or want list, everything that I have available is marked as For Sale / Trade

Now the question - when I made a trade, I am seeing the In-Transaction or In-Transit for cards I am receiving within the specific collection. For example, if I trade for three cards of Player 1, I can see them listed within that collection as being in a transaction. However, when the trade completes, the cards are added to my Main Collection.

Is there a way to have them added to the corresponding collection where the want list exists?

Right now I need to go into my Main Collection and move cards to the collection of the player's name every time a transaction completes. Maybe I shouldn't have organized things with separate collections but I like to be able to go in and only look at that player or team versus the sets I am building.

Apologies if this doesn't make sense.

No, this is why I keep My Main Collection empty and add a collection for For/Sale Trade.  By default when a trade is completed the cards will be sent the Main Collection.  I then go into the Main Collection and move the cards into the collection it needs to go into.  

I'm not sure how much of a pain it would be for the admin to create a record of where the card came from and put it back into that collection when received.  

The problem comes in when you want multiple copies of the same card.  What if the same card was on your want list in Main, Player1 and Player2.  When you get one in trade, which collection does it go into?  It gos into Main by default, then you have to move it to whichever collection you want to put it in first.

Thank you both; I think the suggestion to keep the Main Collection clear would help for how I have things organized. I could just move the sets that I am building to their own collection for completed sets. Also, Tom, that makes a lot of sense in terms of why things go to the main as a default. I was sure that there was a reason for it but it wasn't clicking for me.

When both members have completed the trade. Go down to bottom of the completed trade and click on the binoculars “check collection “ you will get the option to transfer the cards in the trade to another collection you have.. 

This is awesome, thank you for pointing that out. I will give this a try on the next completed trade!
