Not sure if the pics are showing on your end. But I have it graded so I can't open up the book but I did post front and back pics of it.

I get what you're saying. I was just wondering for efficiency to add a cover price click button.

Thanks for hearing me out on this. It was just a thought. When I picked up my monthly pull list from my last. Between that and the last few collection's I have bought, I am about 12,000 books behind. Damn work keeps taking up my time lol.

I am curious on how I make this distinguished list? I have over 32,000 books entered and value somewhere around $316,000 and about 12,000 issues to enter and 4 short boxes that are not in the database.

I have been a member of this site since 2006. I have am going back through my entire collection and making sure that the grades are correct Ruk. I do take this very seriously. How would you like me to send you a copy of say my driver's license or military ID for verification? As for the issues total currently sits at 32,079 but I add issues every week sometimes daily. As for the value it's at $216,110.00

The oversaturation print run is unbelievable. I have so many extra copies of early image books that I no longer compare possible grade upgrades to my collection. I just set it aside in the future dollar bin sales. I was even contemplating creating a short box with the entire runs of everything and putting them on the market.

Hey ruk I feel that way about Continuity comics.of the 1980's-1990's. To the art was jumping off the pages compared to the dot printing of the time. the books were made of a quality paper. I don't remember how many there are but not that many. One day I will put effort into finishing the run.

This is a good topic to post on. We are all collector's to some degree. These Lcs's depend upon us mostly for their benefit. We are the more likely to drop large amounts of money on a book(s) then other people. I know 1 shop here in San Diego let me put a book on lay away! I think that was a 9.0 ASM #8 and was like I wish. Just looking at it. And the owner was like I know you Dave you spend enough in here as well as help out every so often that we made a deal on it and 6 months later I got it.

I agree with basement comics. I do like the feature but "all types" as the default would be really nice.
