NEW: Custom Personal Lists - Now Available to All Members!

Postby Dana-Levitas »

We're happy to announce that this useful and comfortable feature is now available to all members of Colnect :)

What are Custom Personal Lists :?:

In addition to the common inventory lists on Colnect (Collection / Swap / Wish), you can create custom personal lists to suit your needs. When custom lists are added, you can add and remove item to and from them in the same way you do for the common lists. Premium members can create up to 44 lists, each one with 10,000 items at most. Other members are limited to 2 lists, each one with 50 items at most. Read more about it here.

In the past, the feature of Custom Personal Lists, has been available to Premium Members only. Now all Colnect members can try them out and enjoy.

Try it out and let us know what you think :)

Joyous Collecting

I have just come across your new rules for Premium collectors I tried to put a minisheet in my wants list and found I could not because it was full

I do not agree with this because I may miss out on items I would like

Thank you very much for this. Before I had to copy images of items into word, in order to keep track of what items I was getting from other collectors, now I just have to click and add it to a list. :D

[Denfos] - I understand, but the length of Wish lists needs to be limited because it can burden the system and make some things on Colnect much slower for all collectors and uncomfortable to use.

When the project was started they must have realised how big this was going to be

I feel let down because I have just paid for two more years as a premium member and you have changed the rules I would like my premium to be cancelled and my monies to be returned

And I do wish you luck with the project

Denfos - Very sorry for the inconvenience. I've now raised the limit to 20,000 which should be more than enough for custom lists. As custom lists do not participate in scoring and "best matches" feature, I suggest you manage your wish list without a custom list. With the new filters you can easily see the format of the item you want. Here's your wish list divided to different formats: https://colnect.com/en/stamps/formats/wish_list/Denfos and you'll see a few minisheets there

I surely understand why you had a second list before but perhaps with the additional features available today, it probably isn't needed anymore. You can also see it has items which are not minisheets https://colnect.com/en/stamps/formats/c ... _13/Denfos :)

Tcawe- Thank you for pointing out some things I should have realised being new additions to the service Ie separate areas like Africa Asia etc

From your lists you pointed out to me I have realised that it will be even easier for me to keep up to date

Thank you for your help and please forget the cancelling of my premium member status

I think I have some work to do to put them in their right places

Maybe more visits to forum would not go amiss

Thanks again

Denfos

I learn a lot from our forums about what's not clear and what should be improved. Colnect develops a lot using the suggestions and complaints here. So yes, you being more in the forums would be a good addition to all :)

Glad you're still enjoying Colnect and I hope the next changes would be to your liking :)

Hello, as a Premium member, I can create personal lists, and that is a very good help for swap. But what will happen when my Premium time ends ? I shall conserve my lists or the lists will be cancelled or reduced at 2x50 ?

Romanus - your lists will remain intact, nothing will be deleted. BUT as a non-premium you won't be able to add more lists or have more than 50 items in a list. Being a premium member helps Colnect but it is not a must. We welcome all collectors.

:D Gracias por esta posibilidad añadida. Para los intercambios es formidable.

Lo encuentro un poco pequeño (2 listas) para intercambios avanzados y muy reducido en su capacidad (50 elementos).

Hi friends!

This is excellent! Will help us a lot during the swaps. :D

As a suggestion for the future, if it is possible to increase the length of the list to 100 units... :oops:

Tks a lot.

I also suggest to raise the limit to 100 items for each of the 2 lists available to non members.

As a matter of fact, It is most convenient for collectors to exchange approximately 100 items at one time, because that amount would weigh less than 20 grams (standard postage). Exchanging 50 items or less is a waste.
