5/1/2020 Topic: Pricing question for older runs + Detective #405 rixmaxx	pukie2122 wrote: Hello, I have a question about CPG pricing on original series long-running titles especially DC like Superman, Batman, Jimmy Olsen, Lois Lane, etc. The older 12 and 15cent books from the 1960's and early 1970's that maybe older collectors buy...? Perhaps mostly bought at conventions and less so on-line?? I don't know... I have read some posts that explain how CPG determines pricing. As I understand, it seems to be based on actual ebay sales and other documented sales which may include recent price swings due to movies or popularity. Plus your own computer program which may blend the price across all grades. For pricing guidance, I usually use your site plus Overstreet. I understand you are able to react to market prices much faster than a printed price guide that comes out only once a year. That's a great asset and I enjoy using your reference Usually but not always, there is some amount of correlation to comic book pricing between leading prominent companies. Sometimes there are wide price differences. More rarely, there are books or runs which are separated by extreme price differences not explained by recent trends, movies, etc. One such book is Detective #405. Current value for 9.2 CPG is $48 while 2019 Overstreet is $415. Would this be something to review? If you look at recent sales on Ebay, (last couple months) of that book in the VF range, sales are all over, from $40 to $200. So that is a really "weird" book, it was "Hot", is it now? Some books are hard to put a true value on and you have to do your own "research" and bid accordingly.
5/17/2020 Topic: How do you print a total list of your CPG comics? rixmaxx	On the right side of the screen or after clicking on your name at the top, you will see "My Comic Collection". When you click on that, you will see a page Saying "Manage Collection" To the right you will see blue boxes that read "raw" and "graded". Clicking on those blue boxes give you access to your comic files to print. Your welcome.

6/3/2020 Topic: Blocking sales offers rixmaxx	rgtichy wrote: Honestly, I'm not sure I even understand the issue. The OP said "Is there a way I can block communication and offers to buy books I have listed for sale??" Why would you not want communications about books you've indicated you are willing to sell? Is it that you're selling them on eBay and you don't want to be messaged via CPG, or something? Some people put outrageous offers on books, you know, like $1,000,000 on a $10 book, just so nobody else can put a reasonable offer on it.
6/6/2020 Topic: FLIP BOOKS rixmaxx	I was curious as to why "flip books" like Youngblood #2 (#2b & #2c) (its not the only one I've found), are listed twice, once for one side and then again for the other. The weirdest part is that one side is usually worth more than the other, in this case, almost 4 times. Any thoughts? Thanks
6/6/2020 Topic: FLIP BOOKS rixmaxx	Defiant1 wrote: Most likely a mistake. Unless you have the comic in your hand and see that it's a flip book, you aren't going to automatically know. Price differences would occur because auctions will display different sides of the comic and one cover may be preferred over the other. Sales results could differ based upon what is shown in the auction or ad. Well then, there are quite a few "mistakes" here on CPG. I thought books were submitted, then verified by more than one person?
6/7/2020 Topic: how do i leave feedback. rixmaxx	If you click on your name up in the top right hand corner, then click on your "limbo" box, then on your "my limbo box" page, if the item is marked received and the item is marked paid, you will see in your "my tool box" down on the right hand side of the screen, items in the "manage feedback" box. Click on that. Hope that helps.

7/6/2020 Topic: Turok Dinosaur Hunter #1 difference rixmaxx	Though signed editions of comic books are actually quite common, the VVSS program included official Valiant-issued certificates and book-embossing, which separate the VVSS books from other Valiant signed books on the current secondary market. You can read all about them here: http://www.valiantarchive.com/valiant/vcvss.php
7/12/2020 Topic: Little help please rixmaxx	Less is better, search "action comics", "stand " and "gunslinger" Gunslinger is part of the Dark Tower books Hope this helps!
7/19/2020 Topic: Cover upload rixmaxx	Ca2fl2011 wrote: I just registered with website. I'm trying to upload a cover that scanned in at 642mb which is too big (500mb limit). In order to reduce the size, I imported from the scanner into Picasa. That produces a .bmp file that CPG doesn't recognize. I used an online bmp>jpg conversion app that reduced the file to 632kb. Now, CPG won't load the cover - I get a failed message. Any ideas? I've attached the 632kb file fyi. Thanks. (I should add that I signed up for the Bronze/free membership - is that why, maybe?). edited by CA2fl2011 on 7/19/2020 edited by CA2fl2011 on 7/19/2020 Rescan the cover with less DPIs
