Any idea how far along this effort is? I continue to notice the daily price nerfing. Perhaps it’s already completed and this is continuing to come down from market top?

From what I've seen the pricing will be a continuous process. As prices get updated there they'll be fed over to here. Same as always, only take pricing with a grain of salt. If you take pricing here as an absolute then you're in for a shocker

Nothing's being "nerfed" as real transaction prices are being added. I agree they aren't perfect as they don't take shipping into account, but they're just additional data points. Like jimetal7212 said, take all pricing here with a grain of salt.

If you believe the card prices being reflected on the site are out of line with current market value, you can always submit prices to the site in accordance with the guidelines found here.

Yes, I’m doing what I can. I have access to the EBay API and try to right the wrongs that I see. Predominantly 60’s and 70’s cards to date but some more recent examples as well.

I think what TigerWoodlands was asking was whether or not if anyone knew if the original price load had been completed or not. At least that's how I read it. I have clicked on the pricing of some cards and see dozens of imported sportslots prices and then I've clicked other cards and have only seen prices users here have entered (even as recent as today), which makes me think that not all the pricing has been carried over or there are sports cards listed here that sportslots had never sold before.

That's what I read too. The thing is, if the updates are continuous then there really won't be initial "completion". The cycle will be ongoing so cards that have already had pricing pulled may get updated prices while other cards are still waiting to get pulled over. It may not have been an initial data dump then updates.
But seeing we dont know how this was all set up, pure speculation.

Correct - that is exactly what I was asking.

I learned to basically ignore the pricing on here because its pretty much a joke, i see cards listed as have been sold for 3-4 bucks when you can’t get a hold of them for under 50-60$, in my opinion if you can’t get it for 3-4$ that means its worth more than 3-4$, i absolutely love this site but the pricing part of it not so much lol, but database wise absolutely best site is this one

In response to the initial question, looking at Admin's comment in the New Feature Tracker feature for Import Pricing via API, they mention this:
"Work continues to be done to map set names from Sportlots’ naming structure to TCDb’s. Still over 115K sets left to go. As more sets are matched up over the next coming days, weeks, and months, more prices will show up on the site."
From personal experience I know the set names in Sportlots can be quite different from TCDB, so it appears that it will be an ongoing process.
