9/13/2019 Topic: Walking Dead #100b Ronbatman Administrator	If it comes back a 9.8 it would be financially worth it to grade that book. If you want to read it, not so much. Ultimately it's an individual choice that you make depending on what you want to do with the book. R
9/13/2019 Topic: Mad magazine # 25 from 1955 idea on value? Ronbatman Administrator	Coverless books are usually Poor from my understanding. Still a cool book but not worth a lot because of condition
9/16/2019 Topic: Deadworld #10 (Crow on back cover) Ronbatman Administrator	Adjusted upward. That's a tough one because it sells so rarely. R
9/16/2019 Topic: Venom First Host #3 2nd Printing Ronbatman Administrator	Adjusted that book along with the 1st prints. Ron
9/16/2019 Topic: Venom 9 values above cover Ronbatman Administrator	We adjusted those issues to the market price.
9/16/2019 Topic: Cover photos not loading? Ronbatman Administrator	It's happening across the site as our hosting company is doing some updates. We are talking to them about this. R
9/16/2019 Topic: Best Sites to Find/Buy Comics? Ronbatman Administrator	You know that you can buy comics here right? For sellers, there are no extra fees (simply the membership fee) So much better than fee-Bay. Facebook marketplace, Heritage Auctions for high end books, etc
9/17/2019 Topic: House of X and Powers of X influenced books Ronbatman Administrator	Hickman is writing a fantastic series and it's having a ripple effect. Excaliber #31 - Has gone up in value because of the first pages of House of X #1 and the "pod people" Uncanny X-men 191 - Has gone up in value because it's the first appearance of Nimrod. An important "person" in the series. Let us know if you see any other changes based on this storyline. ron

No word from CPG as of this post. If a book is a new title you can tell us in the forums. If a book is a continued title please use the system submission form for a missing issue. I checked all of those in the missing issues and nothing was submitted to us. We do this because multiple admins never visit the forum and things don't get buried in the forum. R

The indicia title is Batman Mass Market Edition? Flash Mass Market Edition? Swamp Thing Mass Market Edition? Wonder Woman Mass Market Edition? Seems like a title that will cause issues with people finding it. If that's what the indicia says, that's what we will use. Can you confirm? Ron
9/30/2019 Topic: Sorry about last week Ronbatman Administrator	If you sent an email to us last week, we are answering it this week. I was on vacation in the panhandle of Florida and didn't open my computer. I apologize for the inconvenience and I'll do my best to get back to you today. The same applies to the forum posts from last week. If you would like to see some of my sand sculptures, check out my Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/ronbatman/ (Batman, Spiderman, Iron Man, Buzz Lightyear, a dragon and my tribute to GOT)
9/30/2019 Topic: Missing: SUPERBOY AND THE LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES Ronbatman Administrator	The wrong cover has been replaced and the correct one added. Ron
9/30/2019 Topic: Missing- X-Men & Spider-Man Savage Land TPB Ronbatman Administrator	Since it was a reprint, I added it to the existing listing. I added in search terms to make it easier to find if you typed in "spider-man" and changed the date. R
9/30/2019 Topic: Batman Detective Comics Annual 2 Ronbatman Administrator	This is a strange one because there are two annual #1 and two #2 within the same series. The thing that makes the most sense to me is to keep it in order but change the numbering. So the annual from 2018 is the 13th annual in the list but is labeled like the book. The same for 2019. https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/detective-comics/1%202018_annual/pkswops
10/2/2019 Topic: Joker Premieres at Venice Film Festival Ronbatman Administrator	How did you get your hands on advanced tickets? Nice
10/2/2019 Topic: Guidelines for Uploading Cover Scans to CPG Ronbatman Administrator	If you let me know what book you want to fix, I can delete the old image. Then you can resubmit it.
10/3/2019 Topic: Guidelines for Uploading Cover Scans to CPG Ronbatman Administrator	Oh, I thought you were talking about our images on the site. I cannot help with user uploaded images of things they are selling. R
10/4/2019 Topic: Organizing by Countries Ronbatman Administrator	When you're in the middle of organizing so many comics sometimes you add books to titles to eliminate the big backlog. Then you go back and think about it and realize that book should go someplace else. We've done exactly that with the Pence versions of several Marvel and DC books. We put the Pence versions in the US title when it should have its own title with a different country. So we've begun the process of moving British or Pence books into their own titles. Here is the US version of Dr. Strange (vol. 2) https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/doctor-strange/slwq Here is the British version of Dr. Strange (vol. 2) https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/doctor-strange/pksuls With both of those titles there is a link back to the other version to make it easier for navigation. In the main search bar there is an area for the country, use that if you're looking for Marvel UK or the Pence version of a regular Marvel or DC title. Back to organizing... R
10/6/2019 Topic: What Sets Prices Here? Ronbatman Administrator	We set prices based on the market. Overstreet is outdated by the time it's published so we certainly don't use that! The market changes quickly based on speculation. This is definitely the way the market operates now. The offer page encourages the true value of a book, which is what we like to see. I've seen you get some great deals here on the site, don't let one or two that got away get you down. Ron
10/7/2019 Topic: What Sets Prices Here? Ronbatman Administrator	When an announcement is released about a new show or movie prices go up. It's not when a show is released, it's when it's announced. As I've said several times, we don't dictate the market, we only report on it.
