Hi, Just wondering if there is any progress being made on selling a set or mini-series other than through the classifieds? I have had very little success using the classifieds even when offering very significant discounts. I agree if someone wants to sell a significant run or an entire collection, the classifieds seems most appropriate. However, I have many mini-series of from 2-6 issues that only makes sense to sell together but I am prohibited from doing under your current policy. Until you solve what appears to be a major programming effort, would you please re-consider allowing small mini-series to be sold through the normal CPG selling process as a compromise solution until you are able to change your program. This is the only significant issue I have with your otherwise excellent service / product. Thanks for considering!

I have a few old Rip Hunter comics that are in pretty okay shape aside from binder holes, if you're interested. Shame, I just sold a complete set of The Cat on eBay awhile back. Would have preferred to keep in in the family so to speak and get it to someone here.

Iv got about 1000 comic books from superman to spidrman, superboy , flash, green lantern catwomen and so many more. Iv never heard of half of them, does any one have any advice on the easiest way to find value or sell these comic books half are in covers the rest look pretty new also. yrs from 1994 and up.. aquired them from a friend who needed work on his car i ended up with them as partial payment.....i know nothing about them ..iv never read comic books as a kid...

I am new to collecting again after stopping a few years ago and this market has me scratching my head. Where in the world can you find raw or graded books at the listed prices on here? Short of getting lucky on some of the not as popular auction sites everywhere else I look for older comics the prices are well above what's listed on the price guide's site. Especially on eBay, the prices there are just getting more and more ridiculous by the day. Where is everyone buying their comics for their collections? Right now I have been looking for ASM mainly 10-199 minus the ones I already have. I have been looking for only higher grades and the prices are always higher than the prices listed here. I've tried a few LCS here East of Dallas but most of them do not have a large back stock. Hell I stopped at one store the other day after leaving work and they only carried current with no back stock at all in the store. I tried a couple of antique stores / flea markets looking for older comics and it was the same there as well, way over priced. The last one I went to had a Wolverine #8 at best an 8.5 priced for $75 but they had a half off sale lol I just want to build my collection with higher grade books without paying double the value. Any advise on where I should be looking? Anyone live in the Dallas area that knows of an LCS that is not over priced on older books like Tomb of Dracula and ASM? Or do any of you have a favorite website for older stuff?

It's been confirmed that Mutants are now going to be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
You can be certain that the ones that have been a large part of the Fox universe are probably not going to make it in for a long time (Cyclops, Wolverine, Phoenix, Prof. X, Magneto, etc)

So which Mutants do you hope to see?
My gut tells me that Rogue is going to be a major player. She wasn't overdone in the Fox world. And she is a key part of Captain Marvel's origin story. There's scuttlebutt that she is going to be one of the baddies in the next Captain Marvel film.

We found another data scrapper today. It's incredible how many companies try to steal our data. Do your own work and stop stealing our work!

This is important to the average member because it slows down the site and worsens everyone's experience. Because of the repeated attacks by data scrappers, we will be implementing a limit to the number of searches each day for free members. We are still working through the numbers but there will be limits in the near future. To start we are thinking about 150 searches per day for free members. Going forward this number may drop.

As store exclusives become more common, we thought that a new search feature related to them is important now and in the future. So if you go to the main page of the site and then click on "Price Guide" a dropdown menu will appear. The third choice down is "Search for Exclusives" click that and it will take you to this page.

Let's say you are looking for any Scorpion Comics Exclusives. Click on the S and scroll down to Scorpion Comics. When you click on Scorpion you can see all 236 variants they produced.

We think this is a useful new search feature to help you better find what you are looking for on the site. I hope you enjoy it.

I like your idea of culling your comics to secure the better ones.
I am doing that on my Stamp Collection-but have not started on Comic Books yet.
I really find it harder to part with a comic book -even a lesser one-than to part with a stamp.
