Entirely separate from the issues of whether they should exist at all, or the associated sales tactics, I do like being able to easily see what Totem has produced in the past, even if they may never be in my collection.I'm not sure how seeing them in the store is any more disturbing/offensive than knowing that they are out there somewhere but hidden.
Exactly what I think. As long as we don't have a separate "inventory"-tab, or something of that nature, in My Collection, Girls Store serves that purpose as well: the history of previous releases, available to buy or not.
And even if I missed some of the special event cards, I certainly wouldn't be upset seeing them there. Infact, I would like very much if we could also see the card images of all the deleted/withdrawn cards in the Girls Store/inventory (Alizee... et al.), disabled of course, without previews etc., but I do understand if even that is not legally possible anymore.
BUT to satisfy everyone, if a separate "Inventory"-tab is not in the plans, I'd like Totem to make it easily possible to filter the contents of the Girls Store to hide cards that are not available to purchase. I don't need it, but apparently many would like one.
