Hello! Does PriceGuide.com have a users Comic Book Collection IMPORT Option? .csv or otherwise (i.e. API)?
I have my own CB DB with data and have no desire to input thousands of comics into any system at the moment LOL.
Thank you ahead of time.

I don't know the answer to this. But I do want to say that that would be a kickass feature.

Not even sure how this would be possible as the titles and issues in your personal database would have to correspond exactly with how we have them listed in CPG. There is a tool that allows you to enter a run of comics, with or without variants, which can speed up the process dramatically, but yes, if you have a handful of issues from a number of series the process can take awhile.

There are 4 ways to add books to your collection
1. The In-depth Way
Go to the title - like Guardians of the Galaxy
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/guardians-of-the-galaxy/pkqthu
Then click into a specific issue, like #1
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/guardians-of-the-galaxy/1/pktscqu
At the top there are four tabs click the "My collection" tab. You can add the book and fill in all sorts of details. After that don't forget to click the green button at the bottom
2. The Fast Way
Go to the title - like Guardians of the Galaxy
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/guardians-of-the-galaxy/pkqthu
Click the green button to the right of every issue you have. You will see green text appear on the left that says "You own 1 issue"
3. Super Fast Way
Go to the title - like Guardians of the Galaxy
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/guardians-of-the-galaxy/pkqthu
On the lower right side you will see a button that says "add run". So if you own 1 through 50 you can add them all in a few seconds.
4. Bar Code Scanner
If the book has a UPC code and the code is in our system you can scan it with our app.

Correct, you cannot import your Excel or CSV file into our system. Every single field would have to match exactly with our system and errors would have to be looked at individually. We have safety concerns with this option as well.
