just stumbled on it. I'm wondering who promoguy is. Anyone know?

Any more details
No never heard of him if i had i would be looking at it

All I have is the website

Nonsportpromocards.com

Todd,
He listed his email too
promoguy@ec.rr.com
I also don't know who this guy is. maybe he's a member here .
It's a nice website. Glad to see you posting again!

I have tried Google , E Bay
But cant seem to bring it up.

Piko, the website is

Www.nonsportptomocards.com

I emailed the person. Its not someone I know but they were seemingly nice in their response to me.

Ok found thanks
Very nice site well done some gaps but has spent a lot of time on it seems to be a work in progress
Whoever you are keep it up

Yes, it's fun to go through the promo alphabet on that site. It's an interesting mix of the old and the new, easy-to-find and the scarce with franchises and more obscure properties represented. It's been up for a couple of years.

Nice site - Looked through some titles and did find a few missing. Other than the e-mail address listed, don't see anyway to contact the owner. Will try and reach out and will update if I get any reply.

Would be nice if this site (or a similar site) could become a trusted reference much like Jeff Allenders site

That site appears to be a showcase or sampling of a particular collection. I don't think it's building to be an exhaustive reference. Doing something like that has become too big of a job for someone to do part-time without a lot of help. Todd Jordan built PCE while the promo collecting hobby was still young. It's been 12 years since the last one. That's a lot of post-2007 cards and who knows how many hours of research to make a list and that doesn't count all the cards from before 2008 (not listed in PCE) that are still being found by the tens-hundreds every year.

Have you seen the list of contributors on the Allender site? Allender has created a very valuable resource for the hobby (something to cross-reference against the old guides and new Non-Sport Almanacs) but something like that needs additional specialists to comment on particular relevant points (missing cards, obscure cards, rarity details, card sources not generally known, etc.) to make a site like that as comprehensive as it is. It's a ton of time-consuming work just organizing all that information and adding listings to the site and editing ones already there. I'm sure the pay is terrible too.

The site is down and may be gone.

Just a few minutes ago, I noticed that the site is back up and was updated on May 28. The link provided earlier in the thread still leads to a page that says the site can't be reached but it can be reached with this link.
