I instantly signed up, posted a few and started building my collection on there. I wish I knew about that forum some 10+ years ago. I signed up there a long time ago. Their tracker is very extensive but I remember it being more clunky to use. The forum always seemed pretty dead with posts being weeks apart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 11,779 Administrator · Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Fyi, the GVN collection tracker looks to be working again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lago | 221 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I haven't started putting my collection in a database yet. I was thinking of using GVN because I like the interface, but based on everything that is going on I am wondering if it is worth the time? Should I just use a different one?

goldenpp72 | 1,234 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 I have my whole collection there so it'll be pretty annoying to have to swap, I wish VGPC didn't look so ugly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t pay much attention to these collection trackers so forgive me if this is a dumb point, but it would be nice to be able to export a csv file of your collection and easily upload it to another collection tracking website like VGPC.

Homeboyks | 30 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) Is GVN dead again? Looking at Daikatana 64, it hasn't updated with new CIB sales since February 2021, and the value on it has skyrocked since then.

Been dead since September 2021 based on the latest update on their website Daily Stats as of 2021-09-05 19:55:35 UTC.) needless to say don't waste your time just like the owners of the site that ran it in the ground.

Aw, that sucks. It's always been my favourite collection tracker. PriceCharting's UI is terrible, and I don't want to use mobile apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH | 4,903 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 @Tanooki Apologies if I'm mis-recalling, but weren't you working on a replacement? I know eBay changed what it takes to pull out the data but you (or someone) mentioned they had found away around it. I need to migrate my collection to PriceCharting. I know a lot of you don't care about prices and I am not largely motivated by that, but I have a sizable collection and a semi-trustable source of values is useful for insurance purposes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitarzombie | 924 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I was surprised how 'out of date' the website was. I was talking to a friend a couple of nights ago and mentioned how Princess Tomato was selling up to $300 where the website had it as 108. Also Kid Klown was up to $700 and the website has like $400. Im real curious where the prices are on some of the other weirder stuff but I dont wanna spend all day checking haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm slowly transitioning my catalog to PriceCharting.com. It's not as nice looking but it's definitely got a lot of features. Anyway, as I move one console-set of games, I remove them from my GVN list. It's more of a double-check process for me, so it's slow going but I'm almost half way through the process. That said, GVN does go down a lot but it does always come back up. It's up more than 80% of the time, and for my needs so far, that's worked.

It’s tedious but I delete what I ad to PC. This way, what’s left is stuff I’ve either miscataloged or I need to hunt down. I could do it from a spreadsheet but it just makes the info gone on GVN. 4 hours ago, goldenpp72 said: I just mean it seems like the site is never..

I think they may prioritize what they look into to fix, and it’s not much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't work anymore, yet another thing GoCollect killed as we knew they would. JJGames is the real hero here for not selling out because we all know he got buyout offers too. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a date stamp on every collection page when it was last updated. NES hasn’t been updated since Daily Stats as of 2021-09-07 19:15:08 UTC The ship has long sailed.
