Ok, I have to say it...I like the new registry setup as well

I don't normally embrace change, unless something is broken, so I have just FINALLY gotten into the registry to make changes (due to Fairlaneman and Onlyroosies sending us some Roosevelts for my son's infant registry set...thanks guys!).
At first, I didn't like it as I couldn't find anything.....but, it only took a few minutes, literally, to figure out a lot of it and see how useful it is.
* I can add coins much easier.
* I can add pictures much easier
* I can add multiple pictures (front/back and don't have to do composite photos and only do 1 )
* It gives the PCGS Guide's value estimate
* Very easy to create a set....I just added inventory and added the Roosevelts and had it create a set from the best available....super easy
* Same thing for the IHC Proofs.....just created the set after adding all the coins we have.
* Very simple, quick, inventory listing
* All sets created seen at a quick glance
There are likely more, but that is a quick glance at what I like so far.
Kudos to BJ and the team that did this (developers, PMs, etc)!!

I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

BJ is wonderful! Helps me so professionally with every Registry set concern I encounter.

I'm trying man, I'm trying. I still need to image the coins that you sent my son and put those in. I have a ton that I need to enter in for the other stuff.

Yep, it took me a little time, but I now "get it" and think it is real easy, and a great improvement.

Ron you have had your sons sets up for only a couple of weeks and have some pictures. The HINT was for some of the other guys that have had sets up for ages. The Roosie section has very few sets with pictures.

Nor do I, and I absolutely hated v2 at first. But, it's grown on me.

It has some really cool features to it and can be a lot of fun to play around with.

My guess is no but a query here setregistry@pcgs.com should get you an answer.

This is not possible but you can have different set comments on the sets.

<< <i>I am liking it for the inventory, tracking of purchase cost, source and date. And these ease of creating new sets.... >>
I like the inventory (quick, at a glance, for all my PCGS coins, and I have started putting a source/date) but all the info, incl cost, I keep in a local (and backed up) XLS locally.
No one else needs that data and I don't trust any company enough, especially online, to keep their eyes out of my data. Regardless of the fact that I am inconsequential to PCGS (low level).
Super cool to do the "add best coin" feature though...and how easy it is to add many coins at once.
