Moving Comics To New Box...

I'm having an issue with moving comics to a new box.

I have accidentally added a BUNCH of Witchblade to the wrong box (91). Luckily they are all sorted at the END of my box that ends with Savant Guard. To make sure I'm not selecting any of the wrong comics it makes sense to start from the end and work backwards. I select that page of Witchblade and the ALL move to the new box (92) and when the page refreshes it says I have NO comics in my current box. And there is NO navigation tool that I have pinned since the site things I don't have comics in the box. I panic.

I go back to "My Comics Boxes" and pop down that box (91) and it still has comics in it. WHEW. But when I OPEN the box the page is saying I have no comics (and the navigation is still gone for that view). I open a different box, page through it, and then close it. Then I open that same box and it has remembered what page I'm on. AHA!! Box 91 is still remembering that I'm on a page where I've moved all the comics and there is no way to back fill this since it's the LAST page.

The ONLY way I have found to clear fix this problem is to CLOSE the browser, navigate to that box and REopen it. That gets old.

Hopefully you'll FIX this issue, because more often that not after I create a NEW box I FORGET to make that one active and I start adding comics to the previous box. Wouldn't it be great if the NEW box automatically became the ACTIVE box? Just a though.




So you're just numbering your boxes without naming them also? Could become confusing Duhh I name all my boxes, found that easier to keep straight. Just a thought. Wiggle

Question regarding value of Amazing Adventures 11

It is a UK variant, most of the time they sell for a little less than the US version, sometimes (rarely) a little more, depends upon the rarity of the book smile

New guy here, question about grading services.
Does anyone know of a service in Canada? I recently sent an Amazing Spider-man #300 for grading to CGC. It cost me $17CAD to send the box (1 comic only), and they are charging $60USD ($80+CAD) to ship it back.
Between the exchange rate and these services making money off of the shipping, I wonder if anyone may have heard of a grading service in Canada?

Thanks all


There is a grading company called 60 Day Comic Grading in Canada but I think your best bet would be to find a local comic shop in Canada ( like Paradise Comics) that ship their comics out monthly to get graded. That would save you some money and still be being graded by a well accepted company.

You never really know the condition of the books inside the package until you open it or what books you even have. It's worth what the individual books in their condition are worth, I'd open it ......Just my opinion smile

Mylar is definitely the way to go if your planning on keeping your books for a long time. Their cost is more (around 3X as much) but in the long run, well worth it. I've got about a quarter of my 6500 books in Mylar. (so far wink ) Go with regular poly for your temporary or cheaper books.

I was trying to get to the site around 8:45am Mountain TZ DST this morning and the site was "not found" in chrome. I pinged the domain and it had a response, but the site was down. Anybody else see this issue? If the site was down for maintenance you'd think I'd see a web page stating that and when it would be back up.



Yes, I noticed it was down for quite a few hours, happened last weekend too but as they say "if a tree falls in the forest does it make a sound?" Duhh

I've got a copy of Ka-Zar, Lord of the Hidden Jungle #15 with a cover that isn't in the database and a December, 1972 publication date. It's not in fantastic condition - it's a bit wavy from (I assume) having gotten wet in the rain at some point. But maybe it's a rarity?

Any insight you could offer would be much appreciated.

I've attached a photo of the cover.



That is a photo Astonishing Tales #15

    Dear RIXmaxx (EEIG)-thanks -appreciate kind words-
    I am old and grey and have trouble even seeing the key board let alone using a "display case".
    I do have some rare stuff-not worth much- but exceedingly rare
    For example-Am happy the site listed my Treasury of Comics-absolutely great hard cover book-contains 10 comics bound together.
    I own 2 and they are in Poor condition -Gerber 1994-1-Gerber Rarity #9-VERY RARE-1948-St. John Publisher
    and i Have checked sales in the last 10 years and almost none are found in better than Good condition.
    PS-have you updated your totals?

    I keep my books on CPG to have a handy, offsite inventory and to see price changes.

    I pulled up My Collection today, and there was a ton of movement, both up and down, in my 1980s X-Men issues.

    What is up with all the sudden price wiggling? I don't follow stories or buy books anymore, but seeing #138 be down $20 got my attention. Is there something hinky with the story line?

    Did some genius come along and say, "It was all a dream..."

    I'd post a snip, but I'm not going to move the image to a host, so, take my word for it! The movement on my listed was from issues 129 to 144, and then several from 201-222.

    Is someone hating on Dark Phoenix?


    The values were way out of whack, now they're little closer to reality. (Still a little high on some compared to Ebay "sold" prices.) Wiggle
