The two issues (below) that are in Volume 1 are already (and correctly) attributed to Volume 3. Can you remove them from Volume 1, please?

#9-C2E2
#14-C2E2

Also, Amazing Spider-man 346, 347, 349, 350, 351, 352, 353, 354, 355, 360, 361, and 362 list Australian cover variants. Since the guide is only for United States variants, can you remove these too, please?

Your post belongs in the other Database forum, as this one is for COMPLETED database problems.
As I haven't collected comics for quite a while, I researched the two C2E2 issues, and I think both CPG and you are wrong, partially.

According to the stories, those reprint the original Vol. 1 Amazing Spideys #9 and 14, but the actual 2014/15 volume 3 #9 is a 'Spider-Verse Begins!' story, with multiple variant covers, and a different one by Skottie Young that has the same Spider-Verse story. Neither mycomicshop or comics.org lists the C2E2s under the 2014 Vol 3 series, and mycomicshop notes it as a Vol 1 series reprint issue. So I think CPG should remove the Vol 3 listing of them, since they're not one of that series' #9s & 14s, and they should just be under the Vol 1 series since that's what they reprint, regardless that they were printed in 2014 as part of the Stan Lee Collectibles series. And Stan had nothing to do with the regular 2014 series. I think there was some confusion about them as there were other Skottie Young variant covers for the 2014 series.

UNLESS the indicia says they're part of Vol 3 that is, so if you own them check inside to see what they call them. I'd think it's just part of a separate series of Stan Lee classics. Plus, the Vol 3 #9 C2E2 listing says 'First App. of Solus', which was in the 'regular' #9, UNLESS it IS another regular #9 variant AND reprints the original Spider-Man #9 too, which I doubt, as that would make it double size and would be noted as having 2 stories. The Vol 1 listing has it described correctly, which makes me wonder who listed the Vol 3 one.

As for 'the guide is only for United States variants,' I don't know where you got that, but not true. In fact, CPG is making more of an effort to list other country's variants, but has long listed UK and Canadian ones. Nothing wrong with showing Australian variants, just scroll past them if you're not interested, but CPG has worldwide membership, so they're trying to be more inclusive to that.

So maybe Ronbatman can come fix things or explain why the C2E2 issues are listed with Vol 3, unless just for convenience for people, but the 'details' are wrong, and they're not part of that series story line.

Based on my research, issue 9 and 14 are reprints of volume 1. In fact, Stan is holding the issue it reprints for both of them. So I deleted issue 9 in volume 3 and the sketch issue 14 that was incorrectly labeled as another #9. I moved over anyone that had one of those deleted issues into the correct issue.
