This is for the Price Guide feature. Some games have digital codes available for them that get sold on ebay. My question is, what should the completeness quality be for these? Should Digital Codes be considered Loose, Complete or New? Or maybe they should be removed from listings all together?

EDIT: Or maybe I could add a new 'Digital' category.

Davideo7 : I think codes from ebay should just be listed as complete, it does techincally in a way have everything.

Well... there's no box.

I'd think it would either be considered Loose or have it's own category.

zanderlex : I'm actually leaning more toward having them removed because are they actually considered a collectible? Once you use it, it's no longer good.

Davideo7 : Even so, it would help give an near accurate assumption of the price if it's listed. I'm kind of leaning towards what EM said now, maybe have Digital as it's own category, but it's only purpose would be to average the price.

EideticMemory : EideticMemory : Having its own category is actually a really good idea but I already plan to add another category for games that are mostly complete but aren't fully complete (such as games that have their box but not instructions); these would be considered Incomplete. Having a 5th category might be too many categories and I'm almost thinking having 4 categories is too much, especially since it'll be hard to display 5 or even 4 columns. Right now we have 3 and that's a tight fit. here's what I mean:
https://www.vizzed.com/games/halo-4-x360-xbox-360-37671-price-guide#price-guide

But I suppose I could figure out a way to display it better.

Davideo7 :

Then it might be better to remove them entirely.

They usually lose all value once you redeem them.

I think Loose, Incomplete, Complete, New, and Digital should work out pretty well.

Maybe just merge loose into incomplete because if it's just the game itself and no box, it's still considered Incomplete.

Digital, Incomplete, Complete, new (Maybe Sealed instead)

zanderlex : There is usually a big price difference between having the Box with no instructions and not having the box at all. If it's New then it's just assumed that it's sealed.

True, so I feel that having 5 categories is going to be the best way to go with this.

I think they should be digital. 

That way, having digital copies of games actually has some value. Because, most of the time, you paid for those games.

I am not a staff member,  but why not have a sub category for it? Digital Complete or something. Not clue what would have to go into it, so just a thought.

thing1 : That's not a very good argument. That'd be like me saying I paid for this candy bar and even after I eat it, it should still be worth something because I paid for it. The same applies for a digital copy of a game, once you redeem it, it's no longer good to anyone except you. The candy bar made you a little bit fatter and the redeemed game added 1 extra game to your library but in both cases, it's useless to anyone else.

Darthdaishi : A sub category might make things more complicating and would require me to recode a lot of things.

A Digital category would make the most sense because when someone is selling a voucher/card for the download code, it's always listed with the condition of "Brand New", having those listed in the Loose category is kinda confusing I think.
