A priceguise is a pile of doggydoo-doo. What if people start to take it seriously? Say goodbye to all our nice GEEWUN bagains.

I'm curious too see how we'd be able to keep track of it all

The only really hard part,after we have an initial base line , will be keeping track of the price swings of recent and semi recent figures. The further back we go the more consistent the changes in value should be.

Valid points. I'd like to be able to access a database as such. Difficult, but not impossible

Problem with a price guide is the market fluctuates too much and too quickly. You want to know what your figure is 'probably worth', check the recent completed eBay listings to get an idea.

PS, was the '**** you' a site censor or an intentional censor?

Seeing as some people get their knickers in a knot because they don't like it when I lock threads when a flamewar is either ready to erupt or well in progress, and because I'm sick and tired of waking up to find numerous pm's from people complaining about the people that are complaining about them, I have decided to waste my time (did I mention I'm on a three day weekend and have lots of personal stuff to do? hmmm ...) and split this topic up and removed the crap off-topic attacks from the last few pages (I'm not going back to the start).

In other words, I've spent a lot of time cleaning up a mess.

So this is what's going to happen.

There's a very good discussion going on in this thread. Keep it going. If I see ONE post, JUST ONE where someone is attacking someone else. This thread WILL be locked again and warnings issued to anyone who attacks another member.

eBay is filled with crazy people.

Another question I think that needs to be raised is what kind of support could we expect from the website itself? Would we need to bug the mods every time we need to make a change because this list will be long, so I don't think posting the entire thing again and again will be feasible. If we could get a dedicated mod for this project(if it moves forward) It would make some of the work easier.

I agree. Baby steps, perhaps start with everything from the last movie onwards? It would be a worthy addition to the website
