I'm thinking about creating a raw card inventory and looking for advice...

Not sure how realistic this is,(or how quickly I may give up on it!) but I have been thinking about doing an inventory of all of my raw cards. Does anyone have experience with something like this or is there a computer based program that could help? I really just want to list by year,company, card #, player and maybe a general comment on condition.

Do a Google search for: sports card inventory program... several to choose from. Which ever one best suits your needs. I haven't used any of them, so I can't really recommend one over the other. I've always just used a spreadsheet.

Spreadsheet. I suggest considering adding a column on what you paid for each card, if you know it, to keep track of cost basis. Also who you bought it from and date acquired.

Or not. I'm not anal-retentive, but if you might be, this will help.

I downloaded one free that I found online, but after playing around with it for a while, I really didn't care for it. I think the spreadsheet is the way to go. And yes, for the cards I have purchased individually, I will also include cost. Thanks for the help! $\:\)$

BBO, I wanted to let you, and Dave, in on a new website that is really taking off, and is being covered at Drudgereport and others.

It is called http://www.unskewedpolls.com

Takes out the media bias on polling.

Dawg, I was looking at some of my 50's and 60's raw cards this weekend for a little bit. They look better in a Card Saver 1, than any PSA holder that is for sure

I don't want to derail Shawn's thread, but I pay absolutely NO attention whatsoever to the polls. I remember back 8 years ago when Bush ran against John Kerry. All the polls showed John Kerry way ahead of Bush, even to the end. The media made it sound like the Republicans should just stay home. Why bother to vote?

Who won that race?

Polls mean absolutely nothing.

David, you miss the point. You really should look at this.

I agree. They made it seem that bush had no chance. By golly he came in 2nd.

Apologies extended coupled with deepest regrets. I did mix up the elections.

Possibly certifiably insane. Did you star in Rainman with Tom Cruise?
