The Fanatics Collect [formally PWCC] Megathread

I second the pinch to zoom, super annoying. I cleaned out my vault for now.

Pretty much forces you to use a desktop to look at scans.

Also the search results are wack. Have to be less specific with search terms it seems.

That’s going to be interesting.

The more that I search the site, the worse it gets. How did they manage to bork the scan thumbnails? They’re either way too small and then suddenly normal or all too small.

I noticed that too, its really bugging me haha.

Scrolling through listings some are perfectly crispy scans, and others i can barely make out what card it is.

I was told they are currently working on the smaller thumbnails. They had numerous people notify them so hopefully it’s fixed soon.

I figured they were going to get a lot of feedback so I didn’t bother, I’m sure it will be fixed soon. It’s just change that I have to cope with lol

Just complaining here but something about the yellow-themed pwcc layout made scrolling feel modernized as opposed to the other boomer auction houses

There was that clownface fake mario pikachu(s) with real autos on them for example

Has anyone else also found that its impossible to browse historical sale data too?

The sales history search on PWCC was pretty good.

Now it takes you onto the main search looking for sold listings, which doesnt go further back than a few weeks…

I sent a note to support on this one, adding search functionality back into historical listings is something on their radar to bring back

Sweet. I don’t know how so many things were overlooked.

I thought it was just a website reskin, but they somehow managed to make it worse too :melting_face:

I’m so happy to hear this. Grading companies should ditch them too. Proxy cards should not be slabbed, even if an authentic signature is on them.

Their policy change is likely due to the backlash in the MTG community that I discussed here.

Has anyone here sold anything from your vault since the change? Did the experience or result change appreciably, for better or for worse? :thinking:

It’s not like they had a big internal overall of staff or technology, so while the UI of the website is different, most internal systems are likely going to be unchanged.

I sold stuff on the last weekly auction block and basically it’s the same as it’s always been.

Thanks pfm, I’m trying to browse some old auctions from the E4 Auctions thread – replied there – and the whole auction links just load up this week’s auction items only. Is there a way to access old (completed) weekly or premier auction pages? I seem to remember it being easier on PWCC!

They have ā€œSold Itemsā€ under the ā€œMoreā€ section at the top

I responded to you in the e4 auctions thread but here is a better place to continue the conversation! The e4 auctions are just to advertise the current months auctions. As Pfm said you can check sold listings on fanatics, but it has been a bit buggy since the name change. Hopefully they fix it soon!

The search bar is terrible, it misses out half the characters you’ve typed! How is it even possible to mess a search bar up?

I’ve had the lag issue with the search bar for at least a month if not more. It’s pretty bad.
