Look up the book in the search field, filling in the issue number in the proper space.
You will have 4 tabs, price guide, your collection, cpg sales, and ebay sales. Click on your collection
There you will see a red trash can beside each issue you own. Click on that to delete one.

Go into the specific issue like Hardcore #1
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/hardcore/1/pkuxbxs

Click on the Variants tab
Click the red button that says "Report missing variant"
Fill in the information and add a scan. (not a .pdf)

This has to be done on the site and not the app.

Glad to have you here. If you have any question please ask.

For a long time, I've thought about the cycle comic collectors go through.

All in collecting
Collecting as a habit
Life event interrupts comic collecting
Comes back to comics

There are virgin variants that went for $20 and ones that went for $170. I cannot change it until it becomes more consistent. The B&W version was consistent between $39-60.

Price Changes

One of the most popular pages on our site is the value change page.

https://comicspriceguide.com/value-changes/

Which makes perfect sense because you want to know what's going up and what's dropping in value. Right now there are 900+ recent increases and decreases. The market is extremely active right now. There are some subtleties with this page that you should know about.

1. If we change a graded book only, it will not appear here. The change will be reflected in your collection value if you own a graded book.

2. The up and down is based on the 9.4 raw grade. So if 9.4 drops, it will show that the book went down in value. Most of the time everything dropped in value so it makes sense. However, there are times when the 9.8 goes up and the 9.4 drops. Because everything is based on the 9.4 raw it will show a drop in value. You might actually see an increase if you own the higher grade.

3. Sometimes we are fine-tuning the grading so we might adjust the grade values a few times. 9.8 up, 9.6 down, 9.4 down, 9.2 up, etc. The last change to the 9.4 is what shows up. So we might have used one of our scales to adjust the values up and then fine-tuned it and lowered the 9.4 a bit. This would show up as a decrease even if the book saw a big increase in the first update.

I realize that this post will cause issues for some people but when you think about the size and scope of this site, I hope it makes sense to you. If we showed every up and down for each grade there would be millions of changes appearing. Our purpose with this page is to keep you informed of bigger changes and not the minutia. If you have any questions, please ask.

Free Comic Book Day Give-a-way

There are all kinds of reasons that you might not have gotten the comics you wanted.
1. Some comic book shops limit the number of free comics
2. Sometimes they run out of books.
3. You were busy that day and couldn't attend.
4. You didn't want to fight the crowds.

So to help you we are doing a give-a-way for some free comics. This evening we will post a picture of all the free comics we have on Instagram. Anyone who is one of our followers and comments on that post is entered to win. Just tell us what your top 3 titles of all time are. (like Batman, Amazing Spiderman and Immortal Hulk) Your odds are good since we don't have that many followers yet. If you win we will let you pick some of the books we have in stock. I'm betting that Spiderman FCBD will be the first book you choose!

Follow us on Instagram as the first step

There was a slight revision, instead of your top 3 titles all-time, choose 3 titles in the picture on Instagram. We have 16 entries as of right now so you have a good chance of winning something. We might even give away two sets, who knows.

What was your favorite scene in Avenger's Endgame? There are so many choices but let me throw a few out there.

Captain America holding Thor's hammer


Iron Man's "I am Ironman" after Thanos' "I'm inevitable."


Iron Man to his daughter, "I love you 3000"


Dr. Strange opening portals for everyone


Spiderman to Tony Stark, "Mr. Stark, hey, Mr. Stark? Can you hear me? It’s Peter. We won, Mr Stark. We won. You did it sir. You did it."


Thor to Rocket, "Are you here about the cable? Cinemax went out two weeks ago."


The girl power fight scene


Or something else?
Opinions please

Thanks for the heads up about that link. That isn't a comics Price Guide site. One of our members owned that site and suggested it.

We want sellers to use our site so that feedback can be given. Paypal is the only way that we suggest. There needs to be some protection and accountability, Paypal provides that.

From our perspective, if we put FCBD on every issue there would be thousands to sort through. If we put it under the title, then FCBD button, that seems easier. All the issues are together, regular, annual, special, fcbd, trades. It fits with our overall approach.

Based on my research it's recreating Akira with the Simpsons so it would be a comic book. This isn't complete but our rules don't say the book has to be complete to be listed. I've added it to the system.

According to the UPC code the "It's Joe" is the 5th variant (2nd printing written above) and the wraparound is the 6th variant. I've put them in that order, which is what you suggested.
