1987 Donruss Baseball Forum

OK, if you had this set originally listed before the Factory Set variations [no extras for T/S or wants], you would have 1 of each card not including already determined ERRs or VARs. Right? Then why do I show 3 DKs and 4 base cards and of course more for already determined ERRs/VARs? So I have to delete 2 of each cards now? Why did this happen? Is there an easy fix? Can I delete all dupes without ruining the listing? Please tell.

Are you sure you only had one of each before this, Bob?  You could tell from your history on your 1987 Donruss Collection Summary screen.  It would show the date and time that every card you own was added. I only question this because if there was a glitch, everybody would have 3 of each, and we don't. 

OK, then with TCDB updating this set, Would T/S cards be updated as have cards?

So what's the easy fix? delete all dupes?

We don't know what you have, so you're going to have to do what works best for you. If that means clearing the set and starting over, then that's the best way for you.

Maybe it's making a spreadsheet and comparing it to the site's numbers.

Maybe, ....there's another way that suits you best. I (nor anyone here) really can tell you how to handle it.

Not getting it again. Right now my collection shows 3 "blue" DK rows and 4 "blue" base card rows. Not sure why? Also I have 1 "white" row, the variation. I'M ASKING, could I delete dupes by clicking on that option in the drop down.

Bob, trying deleting one dupe to see if it elimnates all of the dupes of that one card.  I have seen the system show as having inserted more than one dupe even though I didn`t.  If this doesn`t eliminate the dupes, then use the drop down menu of deleting all of the dupes when updating your collection.

Thanks Bruno, I just moved the dupes to my T/S list. That works and I have multiples and then adjust later. Next question, Why don't we show the cards oriented the way they really are? All cards, no matter base or variation show number in the upper left, but that's not what they look like in hand. Just wonderin'.

Bob,  when I hold a card and flip it too the other side, I will automatically orient it to right side up.  That is what is difficult with thise Variant.  I expect it will add much confusion to mamny who only have a few of these cards in hand.  I only know what I have because I have several of each and know that the odd ball in ten is the factory set.

Apples and oranges....Why make things so diificult? The proper back orientation is different on the cards. That was my point. Where is the number on packed cards? Where is the number on factory set cards? Certainly not the same when looking at the card front. Nobody looks at cards upside down, do they?

Therefore, the back scans should be different on each set. Correct?
