Depends on what details changed. If all you did was correct the numbers, then 99.99% of the time, people's collections remain correct. If you start switching the names because Player A was really card #4, not card #1, and Player B was 1 not 2, and you change the names to match the numbers, that's when we botch up collections. Since this looked to be a number change, collections should be fine.

I had some of the cards on my wantlist (none actually in my collection), and the status in my collection didn't change when I updated the names. I'm no DB expert, but it shouldn't change. Your wish list and collection should link to a specific entry in the database, and all that happened is that the details of that entry changed.

In situations like this, where set and card info has materially changed, and you don't know the intent of users with collection data... how do you/they know their collection data is correct?

I'm just saying the original set titles were indiscernible from one another and both were numbered 1-5. People obviously had some of the NNO version. So whichever set title you change or cards you renumber, you don't know which version users have. Don't have a dog in the fight, but glad it's fixed. ------------------------------- danmarinocards.com $ BUYING Marino I Need $

And apparently they don't know what they have either. So no harm.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.
