I am brand new to CPG, and so far in reviewing supposed "For Sale" offers listed under individual comics - they all state "NOT THE SELLERS COVER"!
Also, just about every single listing seems to offer only a "Make an Offer" option, with a Minimum "Starting Price", but NOT an actual Purchase Price!?
Trying to figure out if I am doing something wrong in looking for available Market Sales on your site.........................as it seems overly complicated (need to Request Scans or wait for approvals on Offer!)?
Other options like MyComicShop of eBay seems more straightforward (either "Buy it Now", or Auctions at least have a defined ending time ++ they always show multiple photos or scan views)! Please HELP me understand your system - as I would be looking to Sell here as well as Buy.

I took the paid subscription to CPG about a 1/2 a year ago, hoping to have a venue that I could sell comics and not have to pay the 13.5% commission on the total sale payment. I listed about 500 of my 50K comics on here and for items that were in a condition less than 9.4, I submitted a scan for items I put up for sale. The scans are there that I uploaded and are attached to the for sale items, but I do see that it does still say that it is not the actual scan when looking at the listing.
In this time I have not had one offer, the only inquiry was for a box of underground comix that I had before I listed them all, so that there was a list of what I had of those kind of books.
Even though there is no such thing as a Buy It Now, sellers can take the initial offer they have it listed for, or in their item description give a price that they will take without delay for a "better" price. It does seem that people that have no sales on CPG have a hard time getting initial sales. They are new? so don't know what they are doing or have no service record of how they would do. For me personally it is disappointing as I have over a 6400 feedback rating on Ebay (plpunlimited), and have been selling on there for many years and have a Top Rated Seller Level. I've also tried the classified ads on here to garner interest, but no joy has happened from that either. I've also sent messages to members on here for books they are looking for and that I have, but no takers on that route either.
