Is there an order for what new books of the week get added first? For instance Amazing Spider-man #65 hasn't been added yet but other smaller titles from this week have. By no means am I complaining, I imagine it is a tough job keeping up with so many titles, I was just curious on the order.

Mine shows the last 10 entries for each. Not sure if that's a "free member" limit or if that's what everyone sees.


I never even knew that was there lol. Learned something new today, thanks.

Is there a limit on how many pending you can have at once? The page only shows ten pending at a time is why I ask. I don't want to keep adding stuff if it is dumping out my other pending items lol.

I think the number is unlimited however it will only show you 10 in that snapshot.


when I did more that got approved, it just replaced the ones that were there, so for free members at least, it appears they only show 10 at a time, but there's no limit on how many pendings you can have. I do hundreds of missing prices at time.

Bubble says Little Giant Exclusive but this was also a Shattered Comics Variant as well. The limit to 1000 was split between the two from what I can find online. I have the B cover but mine says Shattered Comics on the back and CGC lists it as the "Shattered Comics Sketch Edition" Plus the image we have for cover B shows 1.50 on the front cover but mine shows 9.99 on the front cover. So I don't know if they should be listed as separate variants or the same Whaaaaa?

It always amazes me that people get mad at stores for wanting to get FMV for their products. Why should they leave money on the table just so some "speculator" can turn around and flip a book for more money. If they also find it is more profitable to sell online then by all means do so. Their livelihood is selling comics and comic related products so you go where the money is. buyers have created this environment and I am never going to fault an LCS for trying what they need to make a living.


I have no problem with LCS getting FMV for their products. But like I said before if they aren't going to display or sell the product in their stores what would be the purpose of their store? Comic collectors are already able to get a discount online buy pre-ordering current books. So if an LCS wants to only sale higher priced items online and get those online FMV prices what is going to keep them physically open in the future? Sure it makes them a few extra dollars now but will in the long game put them out of business or they will close their doors to the public and only deal in online sales like mycomicshop. I just read about a store in Oklahoma doing this style of the lonestar move as well. Also like I said I don't mind LCS getting their part but asking the same amount that something sold for on E-bay is actually asking for more than FMV due to there is no fee to any other parties involved such as E-bay or Paypal and that is just one seller site there are a lot of other sell sites out there so how is the Ebay price the FMV price?. Also have your books priced, don't start looking them up one by one at the register when the customer goes to check out. This is horrible customer service for one and two it's a bit of laziness on the store's part. If you were to walk into any other store and bring 20 items up to check out and then the cashier starts looking each one of them up one by one, online to see how much they go for, you would probably just walk out right? Bad business behaviors. Also why would you only sell specific items online only and not in the store at all? Nothing stops the store from asking for they price they expect it would get online. Just makes it easier for both parties, no shipping no third party fees and the buyer can actually see what they are buying and not having to guess on the grade online.

DAKEN: DARK WOLVERINE #7
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/daken-dark-wolverine/7/yhqsiu


I added the published date for this one and got a miss for it on the site today. Marvel's own website says it's March 23rd, 2011 and March 2011 is what I added on the site but after looking at my copy the cover's date is 4/06/11 and the indicia says May 2011. So I don't know what date it's supposed to be but it was my first miss upset

CAPTAIN AMERICA AND BUCKY #626


https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/captain-america-and-bucky/626/ynpymu


Marvel says Jan 2012 that's what I put as well on this one but also marked as a miss. This one has no cover date and the inside of it says March 2012.

Forgot to put my actual question in my first post what date is being used for the site?

Just saw the Venom: Let There Be Carnage trailer and I think it looks better than the first one. Comedy / Action and Venom what could go wrong lol. I see a few people are worried it's going to be PG-13 like the first one but I'm still a bit excited about it even if it has a bit of cheesiness to it.
