Okay, folks, the HP 3D set is out with tons of auctions and OOTP will be shipped next week. We're looking for some people to enter auctions in the price guide. There are too many HP auctions for one or two people to handle -- it really is a community project, especially since we all benefit from it.  You can enter your wins, completed items from your watch list, or even the listings for a card or two that are your favorites. If you can help, please let me know! |

I wish I could help the way I did before. I used to add 30+ auctions a week back when GOFU-MM were out but for some reason most auctions I add never show up in the guide now, at least not under the "View auctions for this card"  . If I try to add them again it says the auction's been logged already. So they're in the db but not showing up there (at least I can't see them). |

Please see Mark's FAQs:
Site Issues
Q. Hey! I entered details for an auction and it made not a jot of difference. What gives? Is your stupid site broken?
A. No it's not. Now I'm sure you are a very thorough person and never make silly mistakes, but some folk are - shall we say - less than perfect. I'm not making any judgements, I'm just as bad - trust me! But this site is designed to give accurate information to the W-H-O-L-E W-O-R-L-D! (Imagine that for a second). So if some miscreant comes and enters some stupid data that our software can't stop because it looks too much like real data, or someone simply mis-types some info we don't want it messing up the site for everyone else. So you see, it's nothing personal, we just like to make sure.
If you have any further problems can you please contact me? If by any chance you have an auction number exhibiting this peculiar trait then that would be very interesting.
Thanks

I know you guys double-check the entries before adding them and that's necessary to prevent the wrong data getting there , what I meant is that I can't see the entries, none of them and have no idea if that's due to my new browser/cache/etc or just my luck  . |

Ahhhhhhh well then that's veeeeeeeeeeery important! Can you do me a screen grab? What browser do you use? And preferably LMK which version. It may well be that you are not the only one suffering and would be nice to get this sorted out (plus I notice that our nice little yearly graphs have disappeared), if we have any Shack maintenance it's important to get it in to Mark's schedule as he's due to finish some big projects at the end of the month |

I noticed when I was inputting the COS & MM auctions that the pages seemed to 'stick' - they took an age to load - which isn't too drastic if you're only doing a couple of auctions, but when you're trying to get a whole batch done then it took an absolute a-a-a-a-g-e to get through them all!  I'm using IE version 7.0 on a fast cable broadband connection, but it didn't seem to make any difference. I'll have another go at some more over the weekend and let you know how I get on, although I know other people have been having the same problems with pages loading or not loading as me.  |

Yep me too and it also has a think about it once I've input the data and hit the enter key to log it. In fact I only had one or two auctions out of however many I did over a number of days where the pages actually loaded promptly ... sheesh it was like pulling teeth it was that slow and painful ... |

I haven't had any problem yet (knock on wood) with entering information.
I've been a slacker, but I need to go back through my bid/watch history & enter the rest of the items I bid on or had on watch - this includes lots of various sets the Shack has in the price guide. The way I look at it, I use it often so I should update it often. I've probably got 20-40 auctions to input just from that... I just have to remember to include any variant information - most of what I bid on is NOT a variant...
It would be nice if all the bidders, buyers, and sellers who are on the Shack would enter in their information. The more, the merrier, right?

Yes, the more, the merrier! The more people who enter auctions, the less each individual has to do. |

I have the same problem as you Jules - the screen hanging once you click submit. I had noticed the little graphs disappeared some time ago but I thought Mark had taken them off to save some bandwidth.
I would volunteer to do some HP but I sort of have my hands full with Lost and the odd LOTR blitz. Sorry.

I just cleaned out my ended items and added all the auctions that had not already been entered. I am not having a problem with that one screen taking forever to load, but I am at my parents house right now. I have noticed that problem on my own PC at home, which is why I rarely enter the information, but I dogsit for my parents every other weekend in the summer and will clear out my ended items while I am here by entering them.

If anyone has a few minutes today, I could really use some help entering auctions for all of the 3D autos (except Harry and Fudge -- did those this morning). The autos are the easiest auctions to enter, because there are no card numbers and usually no variants or special comments. Thanks! |

I can help, but I'll need a specific task to work on - so if someone can pm me with something like "Joanna - go get all the ended auctions for (insert item name here)" then I'll get cracking. Otherwise, I'd be swimming in an ocean and have no clue where the shore was ...

I input a good 40+ items from various sets yesterday from my "not won" auctions & will probably be entering about the same amount today...
I also remember some of the seller namess within the past two weeks who've sold a lot of Potter stuff so I'll be looking through their ended auctions to enter those...

For World of Potter in 3D I entered the sole auction for C8/Hermione Trousers & CT1. I imagine there's little for CT2 as well...

I found 14 completed auctions for the C8 and three for the CT2. The case toppers are often sold together, so those auctions don't count.
