To get a price update go to the issue and submit a value change suggestion. Suggesting a change on the forum goes around all the people who have already submitted changes through the system. I'm not trying to be harsh or mean just to be fair with all of our members.
The values for virtually all comics are going through the roof. I personally have never seen a market like this and I lived through the death of Superman back in the day.

Hi Ron,
No offense, but I submitted dozens of value updates but hardly any were changed so I figured I would post them here
Besides, whether you update the price or not doesn't change the fact that I am just posting about a comic's value in the Market Watch section of the forum

I have stated on multi forms about
Transformers Generation 2 Halloween Special Edition #1 Values and Pricing | Marvel Comics | The Comic Price Guide (comicspriceguide.com)
and even put in the the values update request but all i keep seeing is the same books change 3 and 4 times
and the price is still the same
if i could buy them at that price i would be super happy

Royal, Good insights across the board. This is a difficult market to figure out because some things continue to rise and other really good books, quality art, top-notch story, etc. are quiet. I'm sure several of you remember the days when Wizard would hype something and the price would go through the roof. Or they would inflate something BEFORE it got hot. That is happening with a few YouTubers and a competitive price guide that inflates things. I received one example where the Fair Market Value said $1300 and the actual sales were $400 to $500. Why? Why intentionally inflate the market? This didn't work out the first time around and eventually, it will cycle back to more of a normal pattern.
Lokyei, have you ever seen Christmas Vacation? "The lights aren't twinkling Clark?"  Two members own that specific book so a book like Nova 1 which we changed this week, that over 600 members own is a better use of our time. We receive 1000's of requests each month, customer service, corrections, UPC, app, pressing, prices, variants, new books, etc. All I can say is that with our current staffing levels this is the best we can do. You receive all of this for less than $1/week if you are a Gold member. That is a steal for all the work involved! I will get to your book but I cannot promise when.
