For example, if you upload some Matt Ryan football cards you can tag these cards with the “Atlanta Falcons.” This will allow other SCF members to search the Atlanta Falcons tag and find your cards. SCF also give members 0.1 Card Cash for each card you tag with a team.

See our tutorial on adding cards to your inventory here. After uploading cards, click on the Inventory Managerat the top left of SCF.

From there in the My Inventory tab click on the Set Team on the right column.

This will randomly pick untagged cards from your inventory and allow you to set a team tag to each. Here is an example of my inventory:

At the top you will be able to sort the cards by category and you will see how many cards you have untagged. For my inventory I have 449 cards in it and 7 do not have a team tagged to it. Simply view the card to the left and click on the team associated with that card. Once you set the team to a card (or click skip card) another card will load until you run out of cards to tag.

You have 24 hours to correct any errors with a card you tagged. Just below the team tagging screen you will notice “Review the card you have set in case you made a error.” Click that and you will be able to review/edit any cards you have set for 24 hours after tagging. Finally, review the Team Project Explained and Simple Rules to Follow just bellow the tagging screen for more detailed instructions.

2. This will bring you to a search screen where you can add cards to your inventory. On the right side, clickSearch Card Sets.

You will be taken to a set search screen.

Fill in the Set Name, select the Sport and fill in the Year. Then click Search. For example, I’ll search for 2001 Topps Football.

Then select the set from the list. In my example, I’ll select 2001 Topps:

Next you will see several options at the top of a full checklist.

From the Action drop down list select Set Quantity to 1 Minimum.

You will see this screen for a few seconds.

The new screen will show all of the cards in the set with a quantity of 1. You will also notice at the top that all of the cards are in your inventory and at the bottom a list of all the cards in your inventory to include how many are duplicates.

Thant’s it, enjoy adding full sets to your inventory!

Now to create a new category you on your Inventory home page. you can hit the link from any of you post as you have a link to your public inventory home page. IF you have no category, the home page will list all of your trader. As soon as you add categories, they will list on your main home inventory page. Check my new SCF Inevtnory Bucket flavored.

Now to create a new category, you need to hit you home public page of your own inventoy under theInventoriestab. Then create the query you need by simply making the search needed and set you sorting order and the view type. For instance to create a player tag for Crosby, I did a search on “Crosby”, made sure I am set on the trader tab, set the sorting by user BV descending to have my best Crosby that I currently have to show first. Then I click in the Images tab and click to set the zoom to level 1, that show 4 image per row. Now I have the query, sorting and view type all set, time to hit the

Here on the previous image you see what the new Inventory home page look like. The image that will show is always the first image that come with the associated query you created for the category. So images will change as you trader will go and come in the inventory.

Here I set all User Book Value for all my big cards and PC items. This way I can sort my group by User Book Value descending and it will show the image of my card that book the most.

You can create tag if you can make a query in your Inventory that fits the tag purpose. So rookie, Auto, mem and serial card are all possible. By print run too. Create all the palyer tag you need, PC player tag. The only thing we are missing is the team attribute but we will do our best to get this coded before the end of the month.

To edit or delete any category, hit the My Inventory tab then on the right hit the
Edit your inventory
public category

Now if you have no category the list will be empty but once you have some you can simply edit the order in witch the categroy will list in the front pages and you can edit any title as well. If you need to edit the actual query, delete the bad one and create a new category.

Hope you will enjoy this new feature.

• You can upload images of your cards and earn Card Cash. Read about getting 0.5 card cash per image here.
• Your inventory will be available to over 800,000 visitors annually for sale or to make trades.
• You will be able to create categories for your inventory. This will allow you to sort your inventory by autographs, rookies, or whatever category your choose!

Here are the basic steps in creating an inventory:

1. At the top left of SCF, click on “Inventory Manager”.

2. This will bring you to a search screen of the private section where any members can add cards. SCF has millions of cards in the database which allows for a consistent title for a card. Simply search for the card you want and add to your inventory. For example:

My “2010″, “Upper Deck”, “Ladainian Tomlinson” search resulted in 11 cards:

From here I have three options:

 = Adding the card to my inventory
 = Adding the card to my want list
 = Reporting an error with the card

Find the card you want to add and click the “Add Card to Your inventory” icon. On the next screen you will be able to define the quantity, mark it PC or want list, identify a book value and/or upload an image.

Once the card is added to your inventory you will be taken to the specific set list for that card. All cards in your inventory will be shaded in blue. There will also be three new options for any cards you added to your inventory.

 = Edit card or upload image
 = Sell your card in the storefront system
 = Delete the card from your inventory

Here is an example of the card added to my inventory:

At anytime you can click on View your Inventory on the right side column to see your public inventory page with all you cards the way all other member can see them. This public inventory section of yours is under theInventories tab. You can also Set Specific teams to each card (for search), download your inventory, View your want list and set categories. Give it a try and provide us some feedback!
