1. On average we add 3000 books per month to the database
2. On average we make hundreds of price changes for raw books each month. (even more if you count graded that aren't shown on the recent value change page)
3. On average we answer hundreds of customers each month
4. We offer a free app and free use of our site to thousands of collectors.
5. Since we have such a large database we require a programmer to keep your data safe and running properly.

If you are a paying member you pay $1 per week for this service. I understand that you want your submissions approved but there is limited staff and budget. For $1 you are getting a steal.

Please compare us with a $7.99 new comic
Or with CGC cheapest grading cost of $20 plus a membership fee ranging from $25 to 300.
Or with Ebay's ridiculous 10% fees on everything you sell.
Or with other "guides" that flood you with ads and interfere with your experience.

We are the best value in the comic book industry.]]> Tue, 09 Feb 2021 12:01:26 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=15913 Message from Defiant1 Mon, 08 Feb 2021 19:16:34 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=15913 Message from collectibleshop Rockinrob wrote:
I really don't care if they put my photo on the page or not. That's not what Im getting at.
But if you do do the work for them. They should at least add the books.
I've added plenty of information on books and cover scans plus I pay for the service.
The least they can do is add the books..
It's like they pick and choose what they wanna add.
I've added multiple covers and info for plenty of books that they just haven't added, even tho the information was there.


that's a completely different thing than your original post! make up your mind. it takes them time to do the backlog of submitted info. sometimes the info gets lost or doesn't go thru. if you have a list, contact an admin directly and let them know what's missing and how long ago it was submitted. or stop submitting and let it go.]]> Sun, 07 Feb 2021 19:30:52 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=15913 Message from Rockinrob But if you do do the work for them.

It'd be nice if you gave me credit for adding all the information and cover photos Ive added to the database.

Has anyone else added tons of info and photos of books and not had any notification?


see this thread: https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=12862&
I don't know what kind of 'notification' you think you should be getting tho. All that happens is your member rank increases. I recently got to 8, which took a while, and I didn't get any special notifications or money or awards or kudos, and didn't expect any. You get, or should get, your name in the 'people who contributed to this page/comic' pane on the comic's listing, so that's about all the recognition you can expect.]]> Sun, 07 Feb 2021 15:10:10 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=15913 Message from aarondawe Sun, 07 Feb 2021 11:03:52 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=15913 Message from glorkar

I guess I add information for a different reason than you.
I add to the site because it makes it more complete, a better resource for other collectors.]]> Sun, 07 Feb 2021 10:50:15 GMT https://www.comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=15913 Message from Rockinrob
