Patron-only poll: What do you consider "bulk" prices?
🕑 Added 2020-09-02 03:49:25 +0000 UTCHey guys!
It's been a popular feature request to allow collection prices to ignore the price of bulk cards, since they are much harder to sell, especially online.
(For example, when determining your collection's value, you may want to ignore every card under $1 -- that way tens of thousands of $0.05 commons don't count toward its value.)
I've done some research online and there isn't a clear consensus on what the threshold for a bulk card is.
This setting will be off by default and you'll be able to change the number if you enable it, but I'd love for my patrons to determine the starting value!
At which price threshold do you consider a card to be a bulk rare? (currency is USD)

Thanks for the feedback! The plan is to let the user pick the number in addition to having an intelligent default.
I know I am late to this thread but I am new to your Pateron and have a suggestion. I was working on an app for a while before scrapping it due to lack of time more than anything. For this topic, I ended up putting a text box where the user could set the floor themselves. It was just as easy to code and would make near everyone happy. If for some reason this isn't possible, $1.00 and under would be my pick.
Perhaps, offer, besides a checkbox to turn on/off, there could be a slider to adjust the value.
No need to overthink it. 1$ seems like a fine default, especially if it's easy to enable/disable/change anyway :) - oh yeah, and similarly 1€ if you fetch and go by European Cardmarket prices.
I like .25 for collection value, 1 or 2$ if you are looking to sell
I'm going through an exercise right now to get rid of my bulk because I'm running out of space. My criteria to keep generally was anything under $2 for non-foil and $1.50 for foil, especially if they're reprints. First-time prints above those prices, I only kept 4.
Been to quite a few stores this year (pre pandemic) and when you’re looking at 50000 cards, anything under $2 was bulk. But maybe that’s just where I live..
