I will be submitting a bunch of books to CBCS at HeroesCon and hopefully that will help rebuild what I lost after the cost adjustment.

I don't put in my costs for that very reason.

Batman/Catwoman series and special

Hi Admins,

The maxiseries of Batman Catwoman is listed on CPG as Batman/Catwoman but the (Christmas/Holiday) special of the same series is Batman / Catwoman (extra spaces before and after the /).

1) should they be listed the same and
2) shouldn't the special be listed under the main series (like an annual would be)?

Thanks in advance.

Donald

If you go to the series for Legends of the Dark Knight, there is a tab for specials and there are three there.

Hi Ruk,

I'm still waiting for my graded books to come back but figured I'd update my totals even though I lost value as of late

When you do the search, change from “issue” to “all types” and it comes up.

Hey Ron,

There appear to be quite a few users (myself included) who forget to change the "issue type" when searching for ashcan, prestige, etc. Is there a way the default can be changed to "all types" instead of just "issue" to avoid this? I know it will bring up a lot more books but it could help limit the same questions coming into the chat. Just a thought.

From Ruk: "Best of luck to you on your quest"

Bridgekeeper: What… is your name?
Me: Bobashek
Bridgekeeper: What… is your quest?
Me: To seek Batman #1-9 and certain Detective Comics between 27 and 77
Bridgekeeper: What… is the best Batman costume?
[pause]
Me: Adam West...no wait!


Me gets pitched into a volcano.

Ron, can you take a look at my account to see if the issue replicates? It’s been while since I’ve had any pricing movements so I’m not entirely sure.

I too had Ron press an Amazing Spider-man 14 and I feel I got a better grade when it was slabbed because of it.

Thanks

I have noticed that my total is changing however when I go into my gains and drops, I am not seeing what is causing the change. Just today, my total dropped by $10 but I cannot see what book it is.

Points?

I asked Ron about this some time ago. To put it in perspective, I got to level 6 in 8/2019, level 7 1/2021 and level 8 9/2023. And this is with submitting and approving all the time. I'm not sure there is a way to track it.

I thought you did get points for approving. When I am approving/verifying someone's submission, it does tell me I get 8 points.
