eM Phone App 5/7/2012 4:12:58 PM

Has eM considered creating a smart phone app that allows users to manipulate their collections etc. using their phones?

Also, I imagine such an app would have a trade (and history of trades) feature where users enter the cards given and for and the app tallies and compares the value of the cards in the trade. A "done deal" type button would then automatically adjust your eM collection.

However, on the pricing note, I don't know why but some older cards aren't valued correctly, such as my revised dual lands which eM lists their values at 5$, in the collection.

We partnered with a popular smart phone magic app but they lost interest after we coded the connection.

We have been thinking of some of those trade features for the main site.

We get pricing from MTGFanatic for real life cards. If you give me an example I'll see what's up.

I hope the app doesn't stay on the back burner too long Happy

Regarding prices, revised rares are all listed at $5 each. I double checked MtgFanatic and their prices don't reflect this. It's also not like that on the magictraders priceguides which uses that eBay info.

Here's a picture of what I see.
