Thanks, glad it's easy to get your collection in and that the price trends are useful.

On multiple copies: the app has always been built around one photo per comic, so each entry shows your actual book. That's why there's no quantity field today. It's a fair point though, and we're working on some new features that may address it.

On finding a specific issue within a series, I'd like to understand exactly what you have in mind, since there may be a quicker way to do it already. Email me at product@hipecommerce.com and walk me through it.

Thanks Pierre, and I'm happy to hear it was worth scanning your 4,000 comics with us!

Two things that may help with getting around a collection that size. You can search for a series by name, and under the new "Filters" menu on your My Collection page there's a "Series" option that narrows the view to just that run, so you can browse it on its own instead of paging through everything. If you haven't tried Filters yet, that's probably the quickest fix. Within a run, the pagination shows about seven to nine pages at a time, and tapping the last one brings up the next set, which gets you deep into a long series fairly quickly.

You're right that there's no "go to page" option and no page buttons at the top, and both are fair requests. I'd like to understand exactly where you're getting stuck. Email me at product@hipecommerce.com with the series and what you're trying to reach and we'll look into it.

Thanks for the feedback, David.

On pricing, a bit of context. Our numbers come entirely from real sales: tens of millions of actual transactions across HipComic, Heritage Auctions (who share their prices realized with us), and other marketplaces and auction houses, updated in real-time as new sales come in. Many other guides are built on asking prices or manual estimates, which tend to run higher than what books actually sell for, especially for raw books. When our value is lower than another site's, it's usually because ours reflects what the book is actually selling for.

Key issues trade often, so they tend to have the most data behind them, which is why I'd like to see the specific ones you're referring to. Send them over with the values you were seeing elsewhere and I'll have the team review each one.

Thanks. Good timing on this one: there's now a slabbed filter, along with several other new filters, under the "Filters" menu on your My Collection page. Tap Filters and you'll see them.

If it works the way you were hoping, we'd be glad if you gave the app another look. Anything else that would help, let us know at product@hipecommerce.com

Thanks for the review, and glad the app is working for you as a collection tracker.

On pricing, a bit of context on why our values can differ from other sites. Our numbers come entirely from real sales: tens of millions of actual transactions across HipComic, Heritage Auctions (who share their prices realized with us), and other marketplaces and auction houses, updated as new sales come in. Many other guides are built on asking prices or manual estimates, which tend to run higher than what books actually sell for, especially for raw books. When our value is lower than another site's, it's usually because ours reflects what the book is actually selling for.

The one place a value can look off is a book with very few recorded sales, where a single outlier can move the number. If you have specific issues in mind, send them over with what you'd expect the value to be and I'll have the team review each one.

Thanks for the review. We do carry Keenspot's print titles. The Hunters of Salamanstra, for example, is in the price guide here: https://www.hipcomic.com/price-guide/us/keenspot-entertainment/comic/the-hunters-of-salamanstra-2017/

If there are specific Keenspot issues you're not seeing, let me know which ones and we'll take a look. You can reach me directly at product@hipecommerce.com

Thanks for the honest feedback, and glad the Want List is working for you.

On pricing: our values are based entirely on real sales rather than estimates. That's tens of millions of actual transactions across HipComic, Heritage Auctions (who share their prices realized with us), and other marketplaces and auction houses, updated as new sales come in. For most issues that produces values you can trust. Where it gets less reliable is on books with very few recorded sales, where a single unusual sale can skew the number. If you can tell us which issues looked off, we'll review them and correct anything that's wrong.

On new releases from smaller publishers: we add new issues from all publishers as they come out, so if you found titles that were missing, we'd like to know which ones. Send them over and we'll look into why they weren't there.

Better ways to sort and filter a large collection is one of the most common requests we get, and it's on our list. If there's a specific view or filter that would help you most, I'd like to hear it.

Thanks Haydn. New variants can take a little time to land in the database, and if you ever spot one that's missing, tell me at product@hipecommerce.com and I'll see if we can get it in faster.
