https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/the-avengers/pmxsk . a member submitted the UK pence prices and people yupped them, but CPG doesn't accept foreign prices for the main price field, just US prices. so those need to be removed.
same with both A-Team specials: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/the-a-team/smyti

Sorry, when did that become the policy? As far back as I can remember we’ve always allowed that field to be occupied by foreign prices as long as there isn’t also an American price on the cover (like dual or triple cover price issues)

it's been policy for as long as I can remember, that's why most UK and other titles that only have the foreign price don't have any prices on them. ask Ron. this has been discussed for years on here, where ya been? smile
here's Ron's post from 2023:

All values are listed in USD. I know that there are titles that have pence values or Australian values but our system is only in USD. Someday we might add other currencies but that isn't in the immediate future. There are much weighier issues to tackle before then.

--------------------
and by 'values' I believe Ron means the cover price, not the guide value of course. shoulda said cover price and not values, but since the thread was about cover prices, I'm pretty sure he meant cover prices being in USD. Cuz of course the guide values are all USD.

that's just the most recent one I could find quickly, but I was told years ago that CPG doesn't accept foreign prices for the main price field.
I checked a number of other UK/Aussie titles while searching for that post, and most don't have any cover price listed, it's usually just a subnote made that it's a pence price or whatever.
I see my post about the Tomb of Draculas from last month with pence prices has not been fixed, but they usually are. https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=19974
so ask Ron, and see if all the admins are on the same page about this.
