Scotts eCatalogues
I was wondering if anybody utilizes the eCatalogue for Scotts.
If so, how user friendly is it and do you really think it is worth the price?
Thanks for your thoughts,

However, there are people who really like the electronic version. Hopefully some of them will weigh in here.

It’s not that the e-cats are terribly bad, but, as Phil mentioned, they are slow and cumbersome to use, and not terribly convenient, if your work is sprawled out on the dining table and you have to get up and go over to the computer and mess with the ecat.
You know how a lot of Latin American countries have mixed sets — like 4 regular issues plus 2 airmail issues? Flipping back and forth between the 2 sections of the ecat is a royal pain in the neck, whereas with a print copy you put a marker at each section and you can quickly and easily go back and forth.
Bottom line: I’m not buying any more ecats. I will just buy a few single country pages from Chirokmd each year.
Anybody else have a thought about the eCats?
Side note: it's tough throwing old Scott cats in the dumpster, but hey, someones gotta do it..

I have 2008, 2011 and 2013. The '08 and '11 are just collecting dust, might have to follow Lee's idea and just let them go! The '13 is what I'm actively using with a trip to the library a little more frequently now that things have eased a little.
Thank you all for swaying me to at least get the Specialized Catalogue whenever that becomes available.

I have been selling for almost 50 years and I am just selling on line now to get rid of the "accumulation" so my sons do not have to worry about it. It gives me something to do in retirement si I don't go crazy. LOL
