| www.gamesters.ca has gotten a graphical overhaul, and I've added Ebay BIN and Consolidated pricelists to the already available Store and Ebay Auction pricelists.
Check it out, let me know if it is breakable, or doesn't show up properly in your browser.
Thanks! | | | |

| | Is this information is a format that we can import from into Bifur also? I think people would like that feature. ΖD] | |
One of these days WoTC will update their tournament page when I'm in the top 5... they never seem to do when I'm in that bracket :(

| | Pretty simple - we can add a column to the collection table (Access) as long as we have the same unique identifier or some conversion. Do you have a copy of Access? | |

| At work, but not at home. Please don't make me use Access, I'm a DB programmer, I'll feel dirty [:P].
Is there a text format that if I provide, you can import?
Come candidates for unique identifier:
1) Currently used unique id in the form of DDM[SET #][MINIATURE #], for instance Cleric of Order would be DDM001001, and Nightwalker would be DDM004072.
2) Miniature name/Set Name also works well. | | | |

We use the Wizards code internally - is this difficult to add? | |

Not at all. I'll add a page at http://gamesters.hobby-site.com/bifur.php that will supply the required format. Expect to see it no later than friday. I'll drop a post in this thread when it is done. | | | |

| Unfortunetly I'm not going to do miniature pre-orders. I don't yet order in the volumne necessary to reasonably guarantee that I will have a specific stock; as such I have not paid much attention as to what my automated pricing system has given for WotDQ singles prices.
My automated pricing system is the following:
1) Calculate the average price of a miniature from 13 online stores (see price guide developed by madda)
2) Set my prices for all (in print) miniatures equal to FLOOR(AVERAGE*FACTOR, .25). FACTOR starts at .6 and increments by .01 until the average booster will sell for ~1.8x my cost of product (in the case of WotDQ this is ~$CAD23.5 , standard sets are ~CAD$17)
3) Out of print sets are calculated in the same manner except the factor is arbitrarily chosen by me. It is usually in the range of .75 to .8.
I've yet to make an exception as to what my automated pricing system spits out.
I don't really expect my price for stirges to go above the price of a Hill Giant Barbarian.
Keep an eye next week, I'll have updated prices and my stock listed for WotDQ. With respect to Stirges (and everything else) it will be first come, first serve. | | | |
