Default CardTarget

Really, I didn't know it had been sold? It had been working fine up until Wednesday I believe – I still find it helpful, but perhaps it's not being updated after the sale?

I thought it was down for the longest time because when I type "cardtarget.com" into my browser, it gives me a page that says 404 not found.

Then someone mentioned it was still running and posted a link. I clicked on the link, and it worked. I bookmarked it, and now I have to use the bookmark to get to the site. I still can't get there by typing the site into my browser.

It was working a few days ago. I tried to get prices yesterday and nothing. I sent them an email but no response as of yet.

I like the old site better - much easier to use and read.

Default Card Target Status

Hey everyone, just a quick update:

Unfortunately Thursday night we dropped the main database/index the site uses to query pricing history. We are in the process of rebuilding that database as I type, but it will take some time to get the 12 million+ records re-indexed. The re-population began earlier this morning. (We didn't lose any data, it is just an indexing/population problem)

For those who cannot access the site via http://cardtarget.com it *should* redirect to http://www.cardtarget.com - if it doesnt, let me know.

We are getting ready to launch an updated site hopefully in the next week or two. I will let everyone know when it is ready - it has a much improved UI, and I removed the login requirement if you just want to see average sale prices. (You will still need to log into get additional analytics, high, low, last, etc.)

As a side job that I pay for out of my own pocket, I am working as fast as I can.

Thanks for the heads up from everyone who alerted us!
Bob

I have seen several of my purchases show up on the site within 48 hours or less, until this glitch. In general the updating process has been satisfactory.

For some reason Auth0 thinks that I am a cardtarget (and i am not) programmer. I get emails from them. Their responses are certified gobbledegook. I tell them I don't understand a word they are saying and their response is "Thank you". If in the reboot of data, I could somehow be deleted from the Auth0 mailing list that would be nice.

The site is a bit cumbersome to get to what you are looking for, but I thought the former configuration was also cumbersome. Maybe it's just the nature of the beast, or the nature of the beasts at Auth0.

+1, I`m with Chris. Find myself referring to cardtarget a couple times a week sometimes for specific cards others to just do a little fun research.
