As a developer I see this all the time. I am currently working for a company that is struggling to maintain market share because they have been complacent. Developers come and go or have no desire to upgrade or add new features. It's too bad cause you have the ability to add a few features that may already be partially implemented.
Add barcode lookup (already have the field on the screens and probably the database.
Add standard csv exports not the formatted Excel files. It is hard to maintain multiple applications.
Maybe Add the ability to print box labels or other labels.
I would love to be able to use your API to build a windows/mac version that would allow the ability to create bar code labels for the comics and boxes to make it easy to know what/where an item is. There is so many things that could be done.
I am in the process of deciding if I will renew this year or move to a new service. It's nice to know the value, but to me it is better to know what and where everything is.

Would it be possible to add a "location" field...a note section where we can state where the issue is located? For example, Comic Box 1 or even CGC box 1?
Just curious.

Boxes are already built in. So I assume you mean on the search screen.
On the side bar menu from anywhere you can click the "My Comic Boxes" link.
On the side toolbar from the volume or issue detail screen you can also add notes, qty, grade and price. You can also add boxes and run's.
On the side toolbar from the search screen you can also add notes, qty, grade and price. This would be great to add the box location as well.
Playing devils advocate I can see where the decision was made to leave this off the search screen and default the box to Unorganized as to not accidentally put it in the wrong box because of the user selecting this and not changing it. Personally, I am usually dealing with one box at a time.

This year we have done numerous upgrades to the site.
We have organized the variant covers to a more useable format.
We've increased the speed of the site.
We've done a complete remodel.
We added Amazon links for trades.
We've added a sales feedback systems.
We've added features to allow the admins to copy creators and stories.
Those are the things off the top of my head. Because of these things we've seen a 35% increase in users for this month!!! and 25% for last month.

It didn't occur to me to just create new boxes. I can do that pretty easily.
Thanks

I stand corrected. I have seen sales feedback module (I believe we discussed the last year sometime). I read the announcement about the variants and even noticed a few things here and there. I am more frustrated than anything because I have recently been trying to reorganize. When I have several hundred issues in a box that is mixed publishers and titles it takes a couple of hours to enter this in. The new system I have looked at uses barcodes and with a scanner I can enter half the box in about 10-15 minutes and then go back and do the ones with no bar codes by hand. There is another system that will print barcodes labels which I can print and scan. I just wish there was one system that had most of these features already. I love this system and know with some conversations with you Ron via email you are driving for new development. I guess I have to suck it up and maintain multiple systems.
