1. Store variants now have abbreviations tied to each number. Like this book

2. When we add new variants we always put comments. Some of the old issues don't have this but all the new ones do. Like this book
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/magic-order-the/1-C2E2/pktumvx - C2E2 variant but with additional notes

3. Each new variant has the cover artist and other creators added to help differentiate books.

Basically, the entire site is an effort to help identify books. Sometimes there are things we need to add or things which our users need to add but we are getting there.]]> Mon, 18 Feb 2019 13:46:52 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=13049 https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/1963/5A/pluumu and https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/1963/5/sjwxo

There are several other cases, and the description does not clearly assist in the identification of the variant. Simply stating "Ashcan Hero Premier No. 6" without some further description on how to identify the variant will lead to nefarious entities assuming the higher priced version and the ignorant buyer not having any real tools available to assist in the validation of the variant.

Are there any tools available to assist in the identification of variants?]]> Sun, 17 Feb 2019 11:01:03 GMT
