General / Retro Box Protectors - Who does it best?

« on: May 22, 2019, 05:12:53 pm »

Hello everyone. I tried to search for this and was unable to find any discussion comparing these plastic box protectors that I'm sure many of us use on our boxed retro gaming items.

I've been looking/researching pricing, durability and general satisfaction with the product provided by several of the vendors I know who make these boxes but I don't see a lot of discussion in the community comparing these items. Currently, I'm looking at videogameboxprotectors.com(appears to be same as Keep Em Minty on eBay), bagsunlimited.com, and retroprotection.com. I was leaning towards Retro Protection but they appear to be out of stock of many of the items I need in the quantities I need. I'm probably looking to order several hundred box protectors

So I was wondering which box protectors you have bought in the past and what you thought of them. Do you have a preference? Are there other options out there I should check out?

Thanks for the help.

Site Feedback / Suggestion: Add a way to browse/sort by official/unofficial/homebrew

The title says it all. I would like the ability to browse a platform with unofficial/homebrew filtered out. Shouldn't be too difficult to implement.

Site Feedback / Odd bug that only occurs immediately after login.

« on: July 19, 2018, 12:13:42 pm »

I've noticed this happening only on the first page that is loaded immediately after I login. If I revisit the page any time afterward it seems to correct itself.

All of the links in the sidebar seem to have a space after my name when I click on them. Say I want to browse through the Intellivision games I own, the anchor looks like this in the code...

<a href="https://vgcollect.com/Xsuicidesn0wmanx /intellivision" title="Intellivision [NA]">Intellivision [NA]</a>

Every link I click on takes me to a 404 page because of this and you'll notice the %20 from the space in the url up in the address bar.

Been noticing it for a while, didn't say anything until I could confirm that it only happens immediately after logging in.

Site Feedback / Add a button to items in Wishlist indicating they are ordered/en route.

Don't know if this has been suggested before.

I've been using my wish list as a way to track what games I need in order to complete a collection for a particular system. I still sometimes have trouble remembering which games on the wish list I have already ordered though. I think it would be nice to have some kind of easily identifiable way to mark a game that is on our wish list so that we know that we've already ordered it(either trade/sale on here or another forum, or amazon/ebay sales) but simply hasn't arrived yet.

I'd rather not move the item into my collection before it arrives, and it would be easier to avoid buying a game you already bought for some of us who may or may not occasionally go on spending spree's.

Also, I've mentioned it before but I am a php developer. If you guys need any help with this site I'm open to assisting where I can.
