You don't have to put it online, John. You can keep it at home. In fact I'm sure
that your statistics must be coming from some sort of database you have at home
so your job is already done. When someone has an eBay auction which claims to be
checked by Peeron you can look in your database to see if Peeron's inventory is
correct. If it is not then you can write to the seller explaining this.
As for time... if you can go through 1000 set inventories thoroughly enough to
find that 950 of them are incorrect then I think you probably have far too much
of it.
Since you seem to be lacking in comprehension skills I'm going to call a spade a
spade and say that almost everyone who has responded to you is hinting that you
are rude. That is because you are being rude. Now you can continue being rude
and wathc subtlety slowly vanish or alternatively you can stop being rude and/or
shut up.
And whether Peeron has ads or not is irrelevant. You do not pay for the service
so you have minimal right to complain about (me calling white white).
