Another nice feature would be to add quantity next to the "got it". so it'd be a green check mark and then a (2) right beside it if you had two (could also make that (#) always be there (normally showing (1) and have it be a link to the collection for those items.

ah, yes in the collection view I still want to see individuals (like one might be damaged or something), but maybe there's some way to indicate models are the same in the collection view like a thin line before and after each model part # that highlights there are three of the same? -
now I'm confused...when there are multiple it shows the same model entry for each one. If one is damage you add a note. -
sorry just meant that in the collection list if it shows
Piedmont 737
Piedmont 727 -- copy 1
Piedmont 727 -- copy 2
Piedmont 727 -- copy 3
Piedmont 767
maybe having a slight visual indicator like

or

--I saw a forum on DA.C asking if they should divide for sale into 1/200, 1/400, and military. I think that would be a nice idea. When you post, you could select which one to post in, even multiples.

Additional forums are not the answer, the correct way to do this is to add pre-fixes to posts. You select the scale prefix so that they can be filtered out by users. Very easy to do.Comment

How about this: In preferences, it's already possible to define criteria for the ordering of your collection, even at multiple levels: by airline, by aircraft etc. What's missing is an option to toggle between ascending and descending. Especially in case you want to order your collection by purchase date so you always see your latest purchases.Comment

You can already toggle your collection by ascending and descending, to the right of the category list there is a logo of an airplane taking off, and next to it logo of a jet descending. This is how I organize my collection by most recent purchases. -
@FireAngelZero - I know. But it's a bit more convenient if you can set the default order in preferences

--Will put that on our to-do listComment

--All done - you can now go to preference and set default sort order.
Collection sort applies to collection, want and trade
Print sort applies only to print.Comment

--Siegerflieger, it already does that.Comment

Maybe I didn't explain this properly. My suggestion is to toggle the sort order for each level separately, for example:Originally posted by Ops Manager View Post
1st sort - by purchase date - descending
2nd sort - by airline - ascending
3rd sort - by part number - ascending
As it is, I only see a single asc/desc switch which influences all levels of sorting so I can either have
1st sort - by purchase date - descending
2nd sort - by airline - descending
3rd sort - by part number - descending
or
1st sort - by purchase date - ascending
2nd sort - by airline - ascending
3rd sort - by part number - ascending
But that's really a minor problem.
What really bugs me is the model submission queue.
Today, I uploaded three more models, but there are still a few waiting for approval, and I've lost track of what I've submitted and what's still missing. If either the queue was public or things got processed within a week or so, this would be great. I appreciate it's too much work for a single person, so I've offered help a few times. I doubt you'll find a lot more qualified collectors.
Thanks and keep up the great work!Comment

This works now. Don't know who's to credit, but I thought it was worth acknowledging (in case not everyone noticed quicker than me).Originally posted by Ops Manager View PostComment

Your submissions are much appreciated. Just remember as with most people there are times when I'm very busy so I don't have the time to do them instantly.Originally posted by Siegerflieger View PostComment

Two more suggestions to improve the user experience:
On the model detail page,...
(1) ... add options to show collection details (notes, acquisition date; price is already shown) and to modify the model in your collection (delete, modify notes etc). At the moment, the only way to do this is through the "Collection" tab, which doesn't have search. Clicking on "I have it" adds the model again even if it's already in one's collection. That's a possible scenario, but I think more users expect clicking a checkbox which is already checked to become unchecked (ie. delete the model)
(2) ... under "prototype photos", optimize the a.net and jp.net searches. The current ones are by registration only. Some airlines recycle regs, so the following models, for example, have more or less unrelated photos:
http://www.diecastmodelaircraft.com/db/model/25704 - shows current A380 instead of historic A330
http://www.diecastmodelaircraft.com/db/model/15171 - shows current 747-8 instead of historic 747-100
http://www.diecastmodelaircraft.com/db/model/18207 - shows current E145 instead of historic 747SP (which is kind of the funniest discrepancy I could find).
Thanks!Comment

--Could you make the want list sort by priority with 5 star wants coming first? This would really helps as compared the searching through your entire want list just to see what you have prioritized. Also, could we have a button that filters out aircraft that are out of stock? ThanksComment
