But if the information is wrong and has no use for besides harmless misguiding others, it would be simply better to remove it.]]> Sun, 05 Nov 2017 18:54:12 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=11575
1) Realized values. These would more than likely largely come from eBay and other public auction online sites. Perhaps some larger retailers.

2) Algorithms. There are many prices, especially graded, that have an algorithm applied to them and it is not actually based on a realized price.

Since this is a US based site US based collecting philosophies would be applied to all pricing where grade is the primary determinant of value. Of course, rarity, demand, and other factors come into play, but condition will still trump all those factors. Meaning a nicer condition book will ALWAYS bring more value.

You should also keep in mind that guides are not bibles they are only supposed to put you in the ballpark when trying to value a book. Ultimately, the fundamental determinant of value is you. How much are you willing to pay for a book? No matter what a price in a guide is I have paid more and less for books and there have been many reasons why I did so.]]> Mon, 18 Sep 2017 18:39:48 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=11575
So that made me really about what sources were used to conduct the research and if the person or persons gathered the values are brazilians.
