Fill the "My Cost" box with the prices from amazon. If the user didn't fill out the "My Cost" then it should automatically use a default cost option so the user can see an estimate of how much his collection is worth without having to fill out the details
Please, no. Make this optional.

Gotta echo Fox. Please, no! There's a reason I've not filled any of mine in.

I actually am not a fan of the multiple of the same item additions. Thats what notes are for. Ive got 20 copies of SMB/DH. I dont think its right to add them all. Can just put *multiple copies* in notes.

And at the same time, I have multiple copies of things in multiple conditions (ie: need notes for each copy). Granted, the Sell list has cut back on my number of copies, but... The current method is great; I can have my multiple listings and you can list yours once and mention the quantity in the notes. Win/win.  8)

Another suggestion:
Under the list viewer (not sure what else you would call it) IE: the wishlist, collection, etc. I notice there are methods of skipping through pages. How about let's take that a step further and add alphabetical search? For example, A.B.C, etc. Click on the letter "N" and it takes you to games/items starting with the letter N. Would be truly helpful for huge collections and you wanna get right to the game you're looking for in your collection.

I agree - would make it much find all games under the same series name for instance.  Having numbered pages isn't too helpful, I'm afraid.

I agree. The lack of alpha navigation makes looking through my main list a bit of a chore. And I don't even have nearly as many games as atariboy.

Also Desocietas, is that .hack//Quarantine I spy on your signature?

I like the idea of the alphabet but I really don't like the idea of having to wait for every single "S" game to load.

"Stealth add." For those times you want to add something to your collection and not have it show up on your signature image. Like Dance Dance Revolution, which I added to the site last night... but that I bought a month ago. :p

Meh...simple enough solution...just delete/re-add some *Cooler* Games - and leave those DDR's & Hannah Montanah's out-of-sight :P

I think it could take away the fun of seeing someone having added Barbie's horse adventure.

If title = "Barbie Horse Adventures" then Stealth Add = Not Available

stealth add would be good for the more pornnografic games and the more embarrassing games (barbie games) but should still appear in the  user has this item in their collection thing just dont show the user and only show the number of users that have the item
