GBThe new Toy Peddler site is terrible The new Toy Peddler site is terrible. It was so much better in the old format. Why mess with something that easy to look through and search and replace it with this trash. Might wanna revert it back cause it's terrible now. 15 yrs on the site and I'm done...

GBA great database of collectibles A great database of collectibles. I add to it all the time and use it to research what I miss in my model car collection. It's very broad so you can store a lot of information and photos about each item. Also SEARCH ON KEY WORDS TO FIND WHAT YOU are looking for.

GBNew & Improved TTP - Not so much As a 15 year plus member on the original Toy Peddler, that had become a great site for selling and buying diecast. Fortunately when the migration to Hobbydb happened I was not in the position of having a ton of sellers credits banked (maybe $50), so losing those in exchange for no fees on Hobbydb wasn't a huge issue. What IS a huge issue is the fact that Hobbydb is not remotely user friendly, and trying to use the search function (as a seller or buyer) is a painful process at best. Gone are the days of scrolling through a members specific category listings and purchasing as you can no longer easily find those listings. Looking at member profiles, people with 25000 plus sales on the previous site now have 25. So traffic that's actually purchasing is WAY down from the previous version. Add to that multiple site downtimes/glitches and slow page loading as you scroll through an endless mass of pictures. I can appreciate that there may have been issues we as end users didn't see with the old site, but the "improvements" made to the back-end side of the new site have pretty much ruined the customer experience on the front-end.

GBExcellent place to not only database my… Excellent place to not only database my various collections, but a place to keep score of the individual and total price of everything I have collected. Updates my total value frequently. Haven't had a chance to buy or sell within the site over the last 4yrs I have been a member, but from browsing it looks very fair and easy to navigate.
