How to Create Your First Filter

Filters allow you to curate your Daily Digests, realtime notifications, and shopping experience by specific parameters. To set up your first filter, select the button at the top of your screen and choose the criteria that best match the releases you want.

In the example provided, we set up a filter that limits Wantlist items to sellers in the United States with at least 20 ratings. Additionally, we add minimum media and sleeve conditions, while still allowing results with sleeveless media and generic sleeves. We then name the filter and add it to the Daily Digest, a daily email that includes available items based on your filters.

How to Create Additional Filters

You can set up more than one filter to receive a mix of available items. Simply select the filter button, select new criteria, enter a new filter name, and save.

How Filters Appear in Daily Digests

Your Daily Digest is a daily email that features a summary of new releases available for sale on Discogs. If you select multiple filters to be included in your Daily Digest, they will appear as different sections.

How to Set Up Realtime Notifications

Realtime notifications are emails sent as soon as an item matching a filter is available to purchase on Discogs. You can create a realtime notification by setting up a filter for a specific artist or release. These are particularly helpful when paired with parameters for maximum price and condition. Be sure to select reatime notifications, enter a new filter name, and save to activate. 

How to Shop Directly via Your Wantlist Filters

Wantlist filters provide an all-new view for shopping items directly from your Wantlist. Once you visit your filter view, you will automatically find all of the releases for sale based on any filters you created. Select the three dots next to a release’s title to filter the results by items from a single seller or by all versions available in the Marketplace for that release.
