7/3/2022 Topic: Free Give-A-way on Instagram Ronbatman Administrator	Check out our latest post on Instagram for a free give-a-way. There aren't many entries right now so you have a good chance of winning. Ron
7/3/2022 Topic: The Mysterious Micro-Face Ronbatman Administrator	I've added it to the database. Ron
7/6/2022 Topic: MISSING Immortal Red Sonja 3 Ronbatman Administrator	This does look strange since all the cover scans for #2 are missing and #3 only has the cosplay cover. I've sent an email to the three most likely admins to find out if they are working on it. If not, I'm sure our friendly neighborhood Casper can help some. Have you noticed how helpful he is? Either way, we will get this worked out today. Ron
7/7/2022 Topic: Street Fighter Swimsuit Special 2022 Ronbatman Administrator	It's not listed on our site because we don't list any books until they have shipped. Preorders can change. Ron
7/7/2022 Topic: UPC WRONG Ronbatman Administrator	All items are fixed. Some I fixed, and some were already done. (my guess is Casper) Ron
7/11/2022 Topic: New variant additions Ronbatman Administrator	Over the weekend, our admins knocked 120+ variants off the list. Thank you for all your hard work admins! Ron
7/12/2022 Topic: INCORRECT UPC Ronbatman Administrator	Fixed. Ron
7/12/2022 Topic: Polybag Issues Ronbatman Administrator	We've received some variant requests for polybag issues that have been unbagged. I'd like to share our policy on it. We do not provide pricing for incomplete issues. For example, if a book is supposed to have tattooz and doesn't, we will not be making a new listing for the incomplete version. For polybag comics we will provide pricing on Polybag issues - raw will have values, graded have zero values. Third-party graders like CBCS and CGC don't grade issues with a polybag on them. Separate listing for Opened issues - Raw and Graded will have values as long as they are complete. This isn't a change in our current policy, just letting everyone know. Thanks, Ron edited by ronbatman on 7/18/2022
7/12/2022 Topic: Comic not found Ronbatman Administrator	It's a Marvel UK book so you have to change the country to the UK. Ron
7/14/2022 Topic: Polybag Issues Ronbatman Administrator	I know this is a tangent from the original topic but we had the same struggle with polybags leaving lines on the back of the book where the plastic overlaps. I tried traditional pressing, over and over again and they remained. We tried with aluminum plates and were able to remove the lines. It is possible to get the lines out. FYI Ron
7/14/2022 Topic: St John's Publishing comics Ronbatman Administrator	You can submit any book on the site for us to review. Go into a specific book like the Australia Western Bandits 1 from 1952. https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/western-bandits/1/touuls Click on the values tab if you aren't already there. Just above the Graded value column is a button called Suggest Value Change. Click that and fill it in with a finished auction. We will look at it and adjust it as necessary. Ron
7/18/2022 Topic: Missing: Ultimate Spider-Man #160 Bagley Variant Ronbatman Administrator	Doarave, I think it's a bit dramatic to say "there seems to be no one at the helm" because one book isn't approved yet. There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes to make this site run. Hundreds and hundreds of books get approved, added and value adjusted each week and every week. Be patient we will get to this. Ron
7/18/2022 Topic: Missing: Ultimate Spider-Man #160 Bagley Variant Ronbatman Administrator	It looks like the cover scans were switched around, that's fixed now. Ron
7/25/2022 Topic: Missing Issue - Classics Illustrated Ronbatman Administrator	Classic Comics and Classics Illustrated were created in a weird sort of way. Changing the title to Classics Illustrated, changing minor details, dates, or prices, and then reprinting them over and over again, causes a lot of confusion. We should probably look at a way to better organize them but it isn't near the top of our to-do list. Ron
7/27/2022 Topic: Should I Insure A Comic? Ronbatman Administrator	There is collectible insurance that you can get. Collectinsure.com There are also places with vaults where you can store your most prized collectible. I know CBCS and Ebay have vaults. Ron
7/27/2022 Topic: Worth Getting Graded? Golden Era Barn Finds Ronbatman Administrator	Wow, what a great collection of Golden age books. Ron
7/29/2022 Topic: Legend of Zelda 1 (Valiant) values Ronbatman Administrator	That book has really grown in value over the last few years. We adjusted it up. It's always interesting to see what becomes hot. Ron
7/29/2022 Topic: Marvel & DC Calendars Ronbatman Administrator	Our criteria is at least 50% comic book content. Occasionally things sneak by us but that is our standard. Ron
8/3/2022 Topic: Largest Comic Book Price Guide Ronbatman Administrator	Update and thank you. We currently have 1,166,000 comic books in our database. Please compare our numbers to everyone else, it's not close. We have 238,000 UPCs in our system that can be used by our app to add comics to your collection. We have made more value changes this year than any year in our history! With 5 months still to go in the year We have more paid and free members than any year in our history. (since 1997) We are on an unparalleled run this year. We've hired two people this year and it looks like we will be hiring again soon. If you know a comic book person in Indianapolis who would like to work for Comics Price Guide please have them contact me. They need to know comics and we will train them on how to value comic books for the site. Most importantly, we would like to thank all of our paid and free members! From submitting data, serving as an admin, chatting on the forums, approving data, or even real-world things like talking about CPG, thank you! Ron
