I see no problem with doing this, but I'm not certain it's worth the time. If you'd like to, go for it!

That's why I am only starting it because I want to find an excuse to use Excel more. No one will listen to my prices because I don't typically sell and I do not own a site/prominent thread, but I hope to find a better alternative of pricing.

well, for how much people "attack" the 3LG pricelist when trading (claim it's not a good comparison/value guideline),
yours will receive much heavier "attack"

I think you underestimate that. At first it would certainly be attacked, but there are several ways to combat that which I am keeping in my back pocket. No point spoiling my plans until the plane gets off the ground.

The fact is that TLG is what it is: a sales guideline. It's largely based on Ken's stock and past sales history. It's the best guide we have for now, but for trading purposes, there are certainly better options.

Good call ^

I will let my opinion rest at: "I like the current setup. I think making a new one would be a waste of time, and i probably won't accept it myself."

I don't think you should accept it. You sell cards. You shouldn't look at any price other than the lowest cost of a card currently on the market.

yep, and your list is for trades, not sales.
I sell using 3LG as a starting point and then look at what others' prices are and what I can get (as well as my supply).
