4-Sellers: TCGplayer needs to add Quantity button on Upload page

I would love to rate it a 5 out of 5.. but the reason I gave it 3 out of 5 it’s on major critical issue the reason is when uploading to the seller portal with your inventory their is no Quantity to select so you have to go through a hurdle headache process to add quantity numbers each listing after each successful upload... so the annoying process is this 1) “successfully” upload your listing.. 2) you have to go into your seller account 3) search card name in “my inventory stock tab” 4) edit manage listing 5) edit quality from 1 to 4-playset- 5) save 6) exit seller account mode back to normal app (restart this whole process which is super long and laggy) it’s real headache to do this for every card that has more then 1 quantity... I made mistakes putting in wrong numbers and listing that never made it on the site that I thought got scan it. creates unrest issues when you have lot worth of cards **PLEASE add Quantity amount during the upload phase.. the upload page I’m describing is with requirements take photo, enter market set price & normal or foil then upload... it really needs Quantity amount button so it’s one and done process** thank you for reading!

Extremely helpful, but very buggy

As far as scanning cards go this is a great feature, but this frequently gets the set of scanned cards incorrect and correcting the set has to be done one-by-one, which is made even more time consuming on an IPhone X where the “x” to close card pages is hidden behind the time at the top left of these “notched” phones.
I am also having an incredibly strange bug where I cannot read any of the settings for the app that contain an on and off slider. I can see the sliders in a list view in the options, but each row is completely blank so I cannot see what I am turning on and off.
Searching in the normal TCGplayer website in this app is frustrating as well. The keyboard frequently shuts itself for no reason, loading seems to take ages in comparison to using the normal browser on my phone, and the layout of most pages still being exactly the same as desktop layout just zoomed out makes searching a complete nightmare, something that would likely be the reason most people download this app.
All in all, this app’s potential is game-changing for those of us who sell cards. Scanning is second to none and I am hopeful for the ability to on the fly list scanned cards for sale without having to upload pictures.
If even just some of these bugs are fixed this app would be outstanding for TCG players.

Hello! Key factors for successful scanning are: 1) scanning against plain white background 2) scanning at an angle 3) making sure the camera can see the entire card.

Could be the best, but…

There’s a stunning lack of features. Unlike most card scanner/collection apps you can’t seem to actually make a deck, just have various collections. If you want a big collection of all your cards, you cannot merge your various smaller collections, you just gotta start scanning from scratch. It really sticks out how feature-barren this app is. Furthermore the scanner is… very hit or miss. Mostly miss. I bought a precon mtg deck with 100% cards from the Commander Legends set. I had it on a white background, no glare, and this scanner was convinced that each card was from Khans of Tarkir. I had to manually go in and change the set each time, defeating most of the purpose of having a card scan function in the first place. It’s a shame, cuz honestly iOS card scanner apps are seriously lacking, you either get a good scanner and no features, or a good collection app with no scanner. With very little adjustment, this app could be the best on the appstore. But right now it’s just in the middle of the pack. At least it doesn’t charge you $5 a month to see your collection like some other apps do.
