We understand that different people have different interests related to comics. Some people love the Golden Age, or horror books or superhero books or fantasy books or modern variants or whatever. Some of you have expertise with things that we aren't necessarily interested in, which is great.
To create a better price guide and a more complete picture of the comic book market we are enlisting all of our paid members for help. If you are a silver or gold member you can suggest value changes with links. Beyond our own research, it alerts us to changes that you've seen. We really think this will improve the site and give everyone a more accurate picture of the marketplace
Important things to note
1. We will check each listing and suggestion.
2. You cannot submit links from other price guides.
3. We will see your name, user name and the date when you submitted the suggestion.
4. This program isn't related to the number system so no negative or positive points are awarded for this.
5. You can submit raw or graded issues for evaluation
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Always Improving,
Ron

Donald,
Your rank does not play into this feature so it doesn't change the approval process. I see that you've already submitted 4 suggestions. Thanks!
There is the ability for admins to leave comments if something is unclear or incomplete.

Hello Ron!
I think this sounds great! What kinds of links do you want? I mean, I understand not wanting links to other guides, but it really means links to auction results or sold prices from other sites, correct? You won't accept just listing prices, but actually sold prices. Are there any other sources you had in mind?

Stephen,
We do not want list prices only sold prices as you suggested. We are looking for any credible source for sales so it could be Heritage, Comic Link, Ebay, CPG (we see our sales). I've had Brazilian customers submitting links from an auction house there. We were actually thrilled to see a new source of data for our overseas customers.
Dylman,
Not solely eBay, we want to see the full picture. If you submit a link to one grade that is off that will cause us to look at all the grades for that book so you don't need to submit it multiple times for each grade. Just pick one grade that is off.
We've seen several customers submitting links and value changes for the site thus far. This really does make us better by having members suggest changes and we can keep track of them better because they don't get lost on the forum or email. We become more accurate and your collection reflects the real selling price. win-win
