Good luck with that,. Been trying to get the Quantity Box back in the Add Issue Details section, or the option to edit quantity for over a year and a half. Oh yeah! The good old days.

I appreciate the Add Quantity Box. But is there anyway to make it so it uses less line item space in the My Issues section of the Price Guide? For example When i add 2 copies at a 9.4 it takes two line item spaces instead of combining them. Before the Crash it would show one line item with a quantity of 2.

I don't have a specific timeline, but we're working on a new version of CPG that addresses a lot of these concerns and improves performance drastically. Thanks for your patience and I'll give you more updates as soon as I am able smile



Still being patient, any updates? How much longer until the site upgrades? Please keep us informed.

This is what happens to me - if I get two issues they are seldom at the same grade. Just FYI


I agree, with older books I usually have different grades but with new books I could have a 9.8 and 9.6 but choose to grade them both a 9.4. This should not take up two line items in My Collection, they should be combined like before the crash.By the way I have been collecting for over 40 years and have a decent eye for grades. All my new books never hit the rack because my LCS has club member accounts and does my pull list. So far all books I have had graded have been 9.6 or 9.8, so my LCS does a good job of giving me high grade books.I do appreciate CPG putting the add quantity option back, but they need to combine items of the same grade.Still being patient.

Hello? I guess the site relaunch has started and this issue has still not been addressed. Please make it combine multiple issues of the same grade like before the Great Crash. It does it in the price guide section but not in My Issues. And please keep us informed of any updates.Patience wearing thin.

That's a good question...my account has been charged twice now for over the months for a gold membership and I'm still listed at bronze...none of my emails have been answered.



Yeah lately CPG seems to be a scam. I've been a Gold Member for awhile now.and in the last couple years this site has gotten really bad. They don't keep us informed, promise stuff that never seems to happen. yet have no problem taking our money when it's time to renew. Maybe this year I won't. Patience is wearing thin!!!

New CPG - Values

the true value of a comic is only what someone else is willing to pay for it.


This is a mantra here in these forums.

CPG has stated that they use an algorithm, which is understandably a company secret, involving a number of different sources in various KINDS of sources (shops, online, etc). I can see that with over 1,000,000 comics in their database - it's hard to keep up with ALL of them, and they do more than just keep up on current values.
Others have brought this up here in the forums. A number of inaccuracies have been posted (I've mentioned 2 this year). So the Admins know about people's displeasure about it. They've told us that an upcoming version of the site software will let us members officially suggest new values.
That's all I have on this. Only the Admins know more.

Here's the topic where it was last discussed with one of the Admins: http://comicspriceguide.com/forum/topic6038-out-of-date-prices-on-the-guide.aspx
We've heard nothing since then.



We've heard nothing since...is another common theme lately on this site. Lots of promises and please be patient but still no results or upgrades or updates on the sites progress.Don't some of us pay to use the CPG, where's the return for my money?My patience is starting to wear thin.Bring back the good old days before the Great Crash when you got what you paid for.

yah i mean it doesnt take to long to update a list what 15 mins ?



Apparently the only thing that gets updated around here is the front offices pockets. They keep promising this and that but nothing ever changes. Features that we were supposed to have for the New Year never arrived. Features users tried to have returned never arrive. Somehow my membership fee has no trouble arriving, might have to put a stop to that soon.Hey front office are you even listening to your customers?

Half the year has passed and no resolution of this issue. The site has no problem reminding me that payment is due or taking my money.So why can't the Front Office Staff make it combine identical items in My Issues Section; Quantity 2 showing one Image?As stated earlier in this post I've had E-Mail contact and Telephone contact about this issue. My patience is wearing thin...renewal tomorrow but for how long???

Hi, looking to get back into the swing of things on collecting again myself...mainly for my young boys (7 and 10). Trying to get them into it for fun reading. As for myself, I want to get a little more into it, maybe a tad bit OCD with the grades or conditions of the books I'm getting. I'd like to gear towards newer releases (I'm a Marvel fan). By OCD, I mean I would prefer to purchase comics as in the best shape they get can be of the shelf (obviously)...do I expect a grade 10 off the shelves, no...I wish. Unless there are tips you all have I can get to getting the pick of the litter on new release days? Unless that is the rub...staff gets the good stuff, customers not so much? I don't know, I guess in regards to grades right on the the shelf/rack (if handled by staff with care), what is the usual average to expect?

Sorry, long unrealistic expectations on what to expect when wanting to get the best condition books that you are looking to get.



Welcome Plazzma! Check to see if your LCS has a Membership Club or Subscription Pull List . Use Previews and your LCS will pull your Titles before they hit the shelves. My LCS has a Membership Club that I've been using for years and I always get High Grade Comics. some I've had graded and they came back 9.8 and 9.6 which is great. Good Luck and Happy Hunting!

It is a shame.



I have been a Gold Member since 2012 and in the last 2 and Half years this site has down nothing but go down hill.The only priority CPG has is taking our money and getting us to do the work. Want to help feed the CPG Mega - Computer? Check out that thread and see how well that goes. Want cool features brought back? Check out the Question about Quantity Option thread and see how well that goes. It appears the CPG Front Office doesn't even read the posts on their own site. I've even tried E-Mail contact and Customer - Service number. CPG makes promises and asks for patience but nothing ever gets done. It is a shame !!!
