What do you use to Track your Collection?

What do you use to Track your Collection?

My wife. Somehow she seems to know the instant I buy another one, how much money is involved, how many I already have, how much space they are taking up, etc. It is more accurate than any App!

I started using an excel spreadsheet a few months ago

[1000thghost]

I use a app for my phone called Sort It. You scan the UPC code and it adds the POP to my list. If the POP is not in the system yet you can add it yourself. It also connects to their website so you can edit anything you want. It does not show "value" but all I want now that I have over 1500 POPs is to make sure I am not buying a dup by mistake. The FUNKO bit of the app also tracks Dorbz and ReAction stuff

how about i not only build this app. I make a Escrow service along with it. So you guys have a secure way to Trade and Sell your Pop's?

I think PPG used to do that but too many scammers out there and people began to blame ppg for the mishaps = too much liability IMO. If you can truly address the UI and make the experience to add a pop easier with less clicks, I think you'll have a chance against PPG - scan the barcode, maybe pop photo recognition. I'm not sure how to code but that in itself sounds like an enormous task and would require a huge data base to begin with.

Hope this helps.

I thought about Pop Photo Recognition but that is some advanced stuff. I have Barcode Scanner and Text Search. I am waiting from Funko to respond to a inquire about a CSV list and Image Bank of all pops ever created. the Escrow Service is a Concept and will take alot of things to make it happen. But if you understand how to do it its not that hard to make happen. Just have to get the Terms of Service Fleshed out and Fee Structure.



This is all from Emulator so i can't show the barcode scanner i will get that next time i upload update to my Device and test.

[MastaYoshigR]

As you can tell i got alot of Name Cleaning up to do. Which i will get around to doing that. But for now Everything is looking Good and progress on the app is coming along.

[hikanteki]

I just use an Excel spreadsheet.

[HappinessGuano]

Might i say this is quite impressive!

If you choose to ever go this route I might suggest making the list before you you get too many. But I also don't list ones I'm not interested in. It's only on my list if I want it.

looks great. if you're looking for people to provide feedback and looking for beta testers PM me.

I just use the Notes app in my phone because I can never get my spreadsheets to behave! Organized by line, then alphabetical from there with variants in parenthesis.

[LatinFunko]

I usually use Toy Collector app but it hasn't been updating with new pops lately.

[DeatoN]

I use PPG for values but I also have an Excel sheet that I've been updating constantly for the last 3 years. I've done a lot of research about older Funko releases and variants of each to try to get as much of everything they've ever released listed. Pretty sure I've got 98% of items but I'm also sure i'm missing some of the rarer items given away at earlier Fundays or FDO's.

[MastaYoshigR]

My app If you scan the barcode it will search the upc database for data on that product. Which mostly returns correct data. Sometimes it dont return pictures. But you can not it has bad data and i will get it and Fix the data as soon as i can. I am almost ready to launch the app. Just need to clean up a few more spots and then the app will be ready. Then i can jump on the website and get a interface to use.

[zaghawk]

I don't track my collection .

[MastaYoshigR]

Waiting for the Final Graphics From the Designers and We can launch this app for everyone to use. Once the website goes live i am going to allow people to list prices they would pay for pops on their want list. This will allow me to come up with a AVG price for sale for said items. Which we can help Facilitate Exchanges.

[Lasd6141]

I use ppg it works well ..... when its online and glitch free

[theraven00]

I use PPG. I like the "recent Ebay sales" in the listings, sometimes it helps me gage the market if I'm looking to buy a Pop!

[Libertyroxx]

Like the way the app looks! Would love to have a dedicated Funko tracking app! Also would definitely be down to beta test on Android if needed.

[Treblemdk]

I was using Toy Collector 2. But been a while since I've updated it. So now just manually & email order conf's.

[MastaYoshigR]

I am still waiting on the designers to get me a logo and color pallets so i can update the app and start building the website. But the app is complete for version 0.5.0 which will be the first official launch version. It will be listed at $2.99 on the google play store till it raises the funds to purchase the ios license. Then the price will lower to $1.99 and it will launch on ios for $2.99 for the same amount of downloads then switch to $1.99 on ios. The money mode on the IOS downloads will go toward Purchasing Giveaway Pops. And then I will giveaway 1 pop to the App Community per month. I am also in talk with Funko. So that can lead to anything. Thanks. Hope this is enough information for you guys.

What I use: my memory
Granted, I don't have as many pieces as a lot of Funatic's but I've yet to accidentally order a duplicate.

[MastaYoshigR]

I Figured out how to get EBAY but it required a Active Community to help Moderate each pops listing every day. Which is a huge task. Ebay is a hard source for things.

Pop Price Guide 1+ simple/easy to use. I would use PPG over excel any day.

[Nemesis989]

Pop Price Guide, like most people here. You and track very easily and access it from anywhere, unlike an app or a spreadsheet!

[91shawny]

I think PPG (Pop Price Guide) is the most popular method of collection tracking. I've also seen an increase in people using an app called "Covetly". And then there's people that make their own unique excel spreadsheets

I use PPG and also record my pops on an excel sheet for easy locating in the bins.

[dboneo]

I just use ppg but I'm super behind

[Moepops]

I use ppg still have a lot to enter. I'll for sure check out covelty

[riceand1]

I use PPG and also by looking at them in the display case.
