    Agree, it's awful.

    Why change it? Much harder to navigate.

    Maybe PSA is consulting with the same people who make the unnecessary changes to ebay and paypal.

    Yup. Already started a thread on that here but the new version is so terrible, I suppose it couldn't hurt to have multiple threads going on the subject image

    While I agree that the new format is not an improvement I will pick my battles and be okay with the change.

    I don't look at it often, so it's been a while since I last viewed it. It seems okay, no big deal to me. I've seen worse "improvements"... I'm looking at you, eBay!

    It's funny, but I just didn't like how it looked. I didn't even know how to do most of the search functions everyone is talking about on the other thread about this topic. I wish I had known, as I have been doing way too much work to find out certain information.

    If I'm a collector interested in starting to build a master set of a certain player, I want to be able to type in that player's name and see a list of all the cards with his name on it. The new version will only find cards you know exist and are specifically looking for. It doesn't help at all with finding cards you never otherwise would have.

    A way around it in the new system is to type in a year plus the player's name, but now you have to do it year by year, which takes a whole lot longer for players who had much career longevity.

    I don't know what the old pop report looked like but the new one looks pretty much the same as the COIN pop report now. I would guess they are trying to standardize things between the two divisions.

    Not as simple to import to excel either. Gonna take some work to get it formatted properly. image

    I like the the way they condensed the number of columns. it makes it easier to read.
    Work hard and you will succeed!!

    Didn't realize there was a change until this thread. Thanks for the information.

    As far as the change? Yuck.

    It depends what you are looking at. The changes they made to viewing sets are fine. It's when you search for a specific player that it gets really stupid.
