I have an idea. This is it...
G45Central could host a garage 45 database system that would have the following features
1 - a searchable list of all known garage 45s taken from collections of members. This would include label information and a label scan, a mathematically calculated G45 rating including Sonic/Rarity/Legend components together with the overall ranking, and possibly a sound file.
2 - each forum member would have a GBase ID number. This number would be secret unless revealed by the member himself/herself.
3 - members could log into the GBase system and add information such as label scans, band photos, general information, reviews, ratings etc.
4 - members could mark each record as "own" or "want", and possibly "trade". The only marking seen on each 45 in the GBase system would be the total number of "own", "want" and "trade" copies. Offers could be included for "wants", and a dollar value for the "trade". The values would be displayed, but not connected to any particular user ID.
5 - with your ID and login password, you would be able to view a filtered database showing just the 45s you "own" or "want".
6 - Members and non-members could access the database, view the information and offer records for sale by clicking a button and adding some info such as condition of the disc and price. No further description would be necessary since it would already be there in the GBase. The seller would see how many people wanted the record, but not the identities. An automatic email would go out to everyone who marked the record as "want". It's up to the potential buyer if they reply to the seller or not. A trade request email could also be automatically sent to members who have marked 45s as "trade", by clicking the appropriate button, again without revealing the member's identity.
Any thoughts?
