2/17/2023 Topic: Missing series/Issue - Patient Number 9 Xvipah73	I got the variant submitted with a fairly good scan of the signed version I have from my scanner. But, it is a signed version and the picture is "ok", but a little dark. Getting good shots of foil or slabbed comics is such a PITA.
2/20/2023 Topic: New variant additions Xvipah73	I just wanted to revive this with the question of how we can help make this go faster. I now have variant submissions in for SiKtC from a year ago that still have not been approved. This is not complaining, just a genuine question on how this process can be improved for everyone.
2/23/2023 Topic: Wrong cover Photo Boogyman #4 Xvipah73	This issue has the wrong cover photo showing, the one listed right now is the same as the one shown for 4c. https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/boogyman/4/phxtitv Here's the correct cover (I grabbed it from MCS, if you want me to scan in my own or send a different one, let me know): edited by xvipah73 on 2/23/2023
2/28/2023 Topic: Concerning Secret Wars #8 Xvipah73	That's why. Origin of the symbiote.
3/2/2023 Topic: New variant additions Xvipah73	I can give you 49 hours, but that's my limit!!
3/7/2023 Topic: The New Defenders Xvipah73	I don't think there's actually a title called "New Defenders" It's just Defenders Volume 1, and they renamed it around issue 125'ish I think https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/defenders-the/slru edited by xvipah73 on 3/7/2023
3/17/2023 Topic: Missing Comic Xvipah73	It's here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/guardians-of-the-galaxy/wiswn Just click the FCBD tab/button at the top under the view list/cover gallery buttons
3/17/2023 Topic: Options on grade of this 1st print Fallout #4 plea Xvipah73	Like Ron said, with those creases (and some look like they are color breaking, which is always a massive downgrade) and dents, etc.. I'd probably say a 6 to a 6.5 also. Here's the good news, even at that grade they go for over $100.. You can look here and see the worth for a grade in that area: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/ultimate-fallout/4/yhxykt You can also look on eBay and look for prices they have sold for, or on mycomicshop.com and look at what they are selling issues in that range for (MCS probably is selling for a bit more than you'd get, prolly need to drop the price 10-15% or more, but it'd give you an idea). A press would help, but there's no guarantee how much. I've had books that I thought a press would honestly just make it look better, and it ended up improving the grade significantly. I've also had instances where I thought a press would make a major improvement and I got nothing, or very little of an improvement, out of it. edited by xvipah73 on 3/17/2023 edited by xvipah73 on 3/17/2023
3/24/2023 Topic: Afterburn #1 Xvipah73	That's here. If you can't find a title, try changing the country to all (or if you know it's from, say, Canada, to Canada). In this case it's a Canadian comic, so the default just couldn't find it: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/afterburn/uhrqn edited by xvipah73 on 3/24/2023
4/7/2023 Topic: Missing TPB: Project Pegasus Saga Xvipah73	https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/thing-project-pegasus/ubwuj There are tabs up top to either the TPB or the hardcovers
4/9/2023 Topic: Amazing Spiderman Ashcan Xvipah73	https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/amazing-spider-man-ashcan/pjyvh No idea why that doesn't show up when you put in type as ashcan. But I literally just searched for "Amazing Spider-Man ashcan". edited by xvipah73 on 4/9/2023
4/22/2023 Topic: Got a Quarterly? Xvipah73	The title is here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/justice-league-quarterly/wlq That issue specifically: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/justice-league-quarterly/7/sowun I just searched for justice league quarterly and it showed up.
5/2/2023 Topic: Image Comics Xvipah73	I think current Image is very very collectible. From Walking Dead, to all the Spawn(s), etc... But 90's Image was just overpublished. Like rixmaxx said, they put out millions of issues, just oversaturation.
5/8/2023 Topic: General Knowledge about the forums Xvipah73	I know we try not to name names. But is there any sort of list somewhere, or maybe a 1 time post, that tells us who it is you consider your competitors?

5/11/2023 Topic: Missing Gun Honey series Xvipah73	The original series is here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/gun-honey/pkyxnr Blood for Blood is here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/gun-honey-blood-for-blood/phpxhu If you try to search and can't find a series, try changing the country to "all Countries" or the country they are published in if you know it. That's how I found these, they weren't published in USA I guess. If you still don't see your variants in there, you can submit them in the issue # of the series, under variants, at the bottom, there's a report missing variant button. edited by xvipah73 on 5/11/2023
5/27/2023 Topic: Members not responding to offers :/ Xvipah73	To be fair, it is a holiday weekend in the US. Some folks may have taken off. I don't know if they do, but if not it'd be nice CPG had some sort of "away" status on sales you could set like eBay does when you're going to be gone for a bit. I think the informal selling atmosphere here is great, and I've bought a few times with mostly great results, but can lead to some laziness or just plain ignoring of offers and such spd7143 wrote: So I'm starting to get a bad taste in my mouth about trying to buy comics from sellers here. First seller I tried to buy from was about a month and a half ago, 3 offers expired though I was finally able to message him and get a reply message. I decided not to buy from him just based on the experience to that point. Second offer to a different seller now is going to expire in a few hours with nothing on their end. Maybe I'm wrong but if I had multiple items up for sale I would at least check once a week to see if someone wants to give me money. Very aggravating and I really don't want to run to admin like a little b*tch complaining. Rant mode off
