Not that they were very accurate, but at least you could see it.

I’m seeing it. Click on the book and scroll down or click on “value”


Okay. Probably just glitching for me.
Thank you.

So if I want to look up a 9.0 of this book.. I have to pay or just make an account, I wonder.


I have a free account already, and I can not get the full list of fmv unless I pay for the pro version.

The new GoCollect site sucks so bad that I cancelled my auto-renewal and asked for a refund of my prepaid year's Pro subscription that I paid in June. Removing the ability to view an entire series of a title with FMV next to the issue makes this a useless tool for me. I am so angry right now. I feel ripped off. Worst site upgrade I've ever seen in any industry.

I am on the fence. I have the paid membership and was getting frustrated trying to navigate through it now. I will have to try again tomorrow and see.

The new site is awful. The prior site (recently) was inaccurate. The upgrade looks solely like an upgrade to their revenue goals at user expense.

Well, I am now a former user.

I've been using Gocollect and Covrprice simultaneously. Covrprice has won and I've cancelled my Gocollect sub.

I concur. It was a downgrade instead of an upgrade.

Great advice. I'll be cancelling my CLZ account and moving over to covrprice. Is there a way to import your collection from CLZ?

I would NOT cancel CLZ, but if you have goCollect, itself, seems time to cancel that

Is there anything else that will import values to CLZ? Failing that, is there another database system where values can be imported from somewhere else? Does Covrprice's database allow CSV imports? (no, it seems)

What about ComicBase?

Shorter: CLZ relies on GoCollect and I think they've got a problem there.

Quite honestly the only reason I’m sticking around is because I’m betting a ton of people leave and they either revert back or fix things very quickly. It looks to me like a majority of the issues are front end which is cosmetic. As long as they have the data they should be able to resolve terrible UI/UX

Perhaps, but this looks like the graphic designers and the marketing people have got the bit in their teeth. To go back they need to fire some people and I think they'll just tell themselves it will get better instead. Hint: It won't.

CLZ has to wait for GoCollect to finish and then make sure the computers are talking to ea other properly. But goCollect wants “to discuss the arrangement”

So far, this is what I've noticed:

I can't search my own lists.
I can't scroll through the books in my list without clicking through 30+ tabs.
They didn't port over all the information I had input from the previous list regarding my books, i.e., where I bought them.
The whole site and new issue entry system is clunky AF. (How many save buttons does one page need???)
Available information is now way more limited to what used to be available.

This is just what I've noticed so far. Can't comment on the sales accuracy issues yet.

So today I received an email from Go Collect (Comics - Customer Service) asking me what I thought of the update and if all my information survived. I let them know that I was not happy with the several steps backward “upgrade” and that I would probably not renew unless vast improvements were made quickly. Did anyone else get the email from them?
