That's okay AA, I am trying to get a few autos before the season that are a bit costly...(Posey, Castro, Stanton etc). I will think about it but prob shouldn't buy it. Thank you though

I could use a bit of advice on something guys. I tried setting up an Ethier website with all of my scans. Here is the issue, I am not satisfied with the organization of the cards. For example, I started out with all of the 1/1's in a section then moved up from there. I am thinking now, that is STUPID!! I will have a bunch of matching cards to the 1/1's or even partial rainbows all over the place in the site. He is my question:

Should I do the scans by Year > Manufacturer > Brand > Then group all of the same together?

Should I do the scans by Beckett Checklist Order?

Should I do the scans by Type > Autos on a page > Game Used Autos on a page > Game Used on a page > Then figure a way to break down other cards like Bowman chrome and such....

Here is the link:

UUUUUUGGGGGHHHHH!!!! I am glad I do not have thousands of cards yet. This would be even more of a nightmare.

Alex - I would do this (hope it makes sense):

Have a non auto/non GU page: sort by year with newest at the top > keep parallels together
Have a GU only page: sort by year with newest at the top > keep parallels together
Have an Auto including GU page: sort by year with newest at the top > keep parallels together
Have a completed "set" page: extra scans to have your full rainbows, variations, etc. together that have been completed sorted by year with newest at the top.

Nice pick ups Steve!!

Nice work Alex!!

Steve what is your PC? I see a lot of differential in those cards.

I PC Mike Moustakas and nice patches. Also like to pick up nice rookie autos. Sometimes I just trade for stuff because I have something the other person needs, and I'm not overly interested in it. Also seem to be adding some nice Eric Hosmer cards lately. Not purposely, just seem to acquire them. The one below is incoming from HPC. I have a plethora of interests, but trying to focus on Mous and patches. The Ali is sweet and will probably go in my patch PC, even though it isn't a patch. I also acquire prospect autos when they're cheap, so I can flip them to purchase PC items. Having a large family and only my income, I try to stay out of the paycheck.

Makes perfect sense Alex. Thanks for the input.
