Tinkering around with the search tools, and a few things I'm noticing. I feel like Availability should default to In Stock, but maybe that will come once you have more inventory on the site. I haven't figured out exactly how to reproduce it (sometimes it's when I go to another page of the search, or sometimes it's when I change filter settings), then I get: "Internal server error Error loading dynamic filter options The site administrators have been notified." When browsing "Other versions", it seems like it would be nice if it limited it to in-stock items only, or at least showed me the lowest available price for each entry so that I can see if there's stock there. Overall it looks like a great start to the tool -- well done!

I'm not sure if you're just getting slammed because you're on the front-page of HN, or if there are other issues at play, but the speed of the site is a definite barrier to access. I can't tell if it's querying the database directly, or if you're using a rapid indexing tool like Elastic, but my biggest obstacle to wanting to purchase from this site is clear terms that list out what the prices of cards are and their shipping, and the speed with which I can browse and build a cart. Having a "mass entry" cart-builder where I can paste in card names and it builds the best-priced cart for me would be a nice tool as well, but I can imagine you've got a lot on your plate just filling all this out. Overall great job, and I look forward to seeing this progress! I hope you have a great trip!

  Yes, getting slammed and George is working on it in real-time. You can see the deck/mass uploader start here: https://manapool.com/deck/add https://manapool.com/deck/add

    This looks great!! I really love how it clearly explains the expected input format, and the real-time validator is super-slick! Seriously one of the best mass-entry tools that I've seen!

Bit of a hug of death from the front page. We're working on stabilizing.
