Beckett's has a ton of downtime and such...but at it's core, it's pretty useful now.

I think once it's ironed out, it'll work much better for things with a few more bugs worked out.

This....i'm sorry, having the password to the database visible in an error message is beyond the pale of any designer; much less a team who got paid.

Beckett at least modified their core business; this was a complete shifting of the core into the background for useless shit.

Beckett pissed on me by eliminating trading in their forum. - Jim Oct 22, 05:26 10
- I did some calcs on Beckett's trades and sales.....it's actually cheaper with them than trading/selling on eBay. - Will Hunting Oct 22, 05:28 9
  - The bummer for me, though, is when I hit a "Trading Broncos" thread on the old board...if I struck a deal, it was free (save shipping). - Jim Oct 22, 05:30 8
    - Very nice. What sites do you use? I am so out of the hobby. - Will Hunting Oct 22, 05:36 7

        Unfortunately, the hobby has gone almost completely auto-crazy. Even game used cards aren't in demand too much anymore. - Jim Oct 22, 05:53 2
        
        mostly around 78-82 (so AGretzky rookie, Messier, Coffey, the big Oiler guys plus Bossy and a few others)... - Beaker Oct 22, 05:55 1
        
        For stuff like that, I'm sure there's a market. Hell, I'd be interested in the Gretzky. - Jim Oct 22, 06:00
