7/20/2021 Topic: Exporting... Ronbatman Administrator	We have things put into an Excel file by publisher to protect our data. We routinely and constantly have people and organizations trying to steal our data. No one wants to input 1.1 million books into their database when it's so much easier to steal ours. I understand with your very large collection it's time-consuming and I'm sorry, but we are not going to be changing it. We have more than double the data of our largest competitor. Ron
7/20/2021 Topic: Did you see this article in the Hollywood Reporter Ronbatman Administrator	I thought this was an interesting article about how comic creators are treated by Marvel and DC. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/marvel-and-dcs-shut-up-money-comic-creators-go-public-over-pay-1234983043/ Thoughts?

7/21/2021 Topic: How do I do this? Ronbatman Administrator	Here is the video training series on YouTube for how to use the price guide https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3eOHtGDGIs0GGohUDuypf3TlQM2aupdo Most comics have an indicia when you open the front cover. In the small print you will find the title and issue number. So many books are reprinted, that you need to do this to be sure what you have. Ron
7/26/2021 Topic: Wanna have my comics graded Ronbatman Administrator	You can send books to CGC or CBCS for grading. Just do a google search and either will come up. If your books are autographed at a convention without authentication, I'd suggest CBCS since they can do that. Ron
7/26/2021 Topic: Issue-->My Collection--> Is there a way to sort? Ronbatman Administrator	Currently, there isn't a way to sort multiple copies of a single issue. Ron
7/26/2021 Topic: New Additions to Your Download Ronbatman Administrator	We've made some additions to the download feature on the site. When you download a title you will see the title, issue number, and quantity like before. But now you will also see... Current value, The amount you paid (if you added it), Total gain or loss, What box it is in, Information from our site like 1st Appearances Notes you added. We think this adds a lot to the download feature on the site. Several of you suggested some additions so we listened. I hope you enjoy it. For those members who have never downloaded your collection Go to the collection page https://comicspriceguide.com/collection/ Click on Raw or Graded for any publisher. That will send you an excel file with everything in that publisher Ron edited by ronbatman on 7/26/2021
7/28/2021 Topic: Issue number ? Ronbatman Administrator	Glorkar is correct on where to find the issue number. Defiant1 we list no issue numbers like this. #nn https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/batman-adventures-mad-love/smw Ron
7/28/2021 Topic: New Additions to Your Download Ronbatman Administrator	Let me check on this. We tested it and it worked fine but we were testing with smaller collections. Ron
7/28/2021 Topic: Secret Wars Secret Love values Ronbatman Administrator	We were trying to figure this one out as well and there doesn't seem to be much of a reason for it. The strangest part is that one of the variants hasn't gone up in value. That variant that has remained stagnant might be a good investment if you believe the other prices will remain high. Speculators speculate.
7/28/2021 Topic: Ruk's list-Who has the best collection Ronbatman Administrator	We have people on the site who put EVERYTHING in their collection as graded 10.0! (Even when no 10.0 exist in the census) I'm not sure if they are doing this to brag or to show the insurance company the value of their collection. They will not be happy as we continue to eliminate books that aren't in the census. Ron

7/28/2021 Topic: Date wrong Ronbatman Administrator	That's what I get for hurrying through it. Good catch
7/28/2021 Topic: New Additions to Your Download Ronbatman Administrator	We found the problem and fixed it. If you submitted a download you should have it now. Ron
7/28/2021 Topic: Ruk's list-Who has the best collection Ronbatman Administrator	When we consider removing a grade we make sure it isn't in the CGC census. CBCS is a great company but isn't nearly as big as CGC. So currently, we only check CGC. However, if we eliminate something that is in the CBCS population we will happily add it back. We want all paying members to have every comic in their collection even if it's the only known copy. It's really common for inexperienced collectors to add the highest grade. I've seen the numbers on your collection, you're not in that category.
7/28/2021 Topic: New Additions to Your Download Ronbatman Administrator	Right now we don't have that option to sort by title. We would have to discuss it more to see how big the file would be. To give you an answer I'm going to say, not right now. We always like to move forward so we will keep this in mind for the future. R
7/28/2021 Topic: Ruk's list-Who has the best collection Ronbatman Administrator	Are you kidding me? The name, Ruk, is revered in the Comics Price Guide office. There is a small memorial next to the Stan Lee picture to the diligent and dedicated Ruk.
7/29/2021 Topic: WEB OF SPIDER-MAN Ronbatman Administrator	I've added a few extra search terms to the title so that it will come up with W.E.B. of Spider-man Web of Spider-man or Web of Spiderman Subtle differences make a big difference Ron
7/30/2021 Topic: Issue number ? Ronbatman Administrator	Send me a message with the title and I will fix them. Ron
