I got an e-mail from CovrPrice today and it mentions something about their partnership with CLZ.

FREEFEST FRIDAY is back! We're partnering with Scout Comics to give away over $3,000 in FREE comic books! All you have to do is sign up & show up! Hang out with us as we chat comics, discuss Scout content news and CovrPrice updates, including our recent partnership with CLZ!

Must be something to do with CLZ reviving the comic book values feature.

I thought they were looking for a replacement not reviving the value feature. Based on the posts on Facebook the last 6 months it appears this has been quite the process to get to this point.

Yeah, CLZ has been mentioning partnering with a site to provide values.

They also said you would have to subscribe to the pricing provider in order to get pricing in the app

Ya, just reviving the value feature. Not replacing it with a different feature.

It was previously GoCollect, wasn’t it? So they’re reviving the feature by replacing the partner.

Hi all,
Finally, a news update about the upcoming solution for comic values. And.. this is the BIG one, as we can now reveal WHICH 3rd party we are going to work with.
We are proud and excited to announce that our new partner for comic values is....:
COVRPRICE !!!

Yes, CLZ and COVRPRICE are going to work together, to provide you with the internet's most reliable and up-to-date comic values, right there in your favorite comic cataloging tool!
This also means we can finally answer your most common questions:
Will it only provide values for graded comics or for raw comics too?
What will it cost?
ETA ???
1. COVRPRICE GIVES YOU VALUES FOR BOTH GRADED AND RAW COMICS!

CovrPrice not only provides values for your graded comics, but they also provide reliable fair market value (FMV) averages for your raw comics!
And... even better news: they are currently upgrading their value system for raw comics, so that they can soon offer more exact raw values based on 7 different estimated grade "buckets". This improved raw value system should be live within a month!
2. THE COSTS WILL BE US $6.95 PER MONTH OR US $60 PER YEAR

(see below for a $4 discount code if you want to give it a try)
To get the values in your CLZ software or app, you will need a subscription to the CovrPrice "UNLIMITED" plan, which is US $6.95 per month or, when paid yearly, US $60 per year ($5/month).
Of course, you will only need one COVRPRICE subscription to get values in all your CLZ comic tools (e.g. in CLZ Comics AND Comic Connect). You also need active subscriptions for your CLZ tools, that is, a grandfathered account will not suffice.
3. ETA ????

Well, the good news is: we actually started implementation! Up till now, it has been mostly talking and negotiating. But with the agreement now final and signed, both parties have started implementation!
On the COVRPRICE side, a new senior back-end developer has been hired and their dev team is now working on their new back-end, the new system for raw values and on the API that CLZ will be using.
On the CLZ side, Sven has spent the past few weeks to develop a new CMS tool for linking our Core comic entries to the corresponding COVRPRICE entries. The tool has been able to link up a large part of the database by barcode.
The rest will have to be done manually, as a joint effort by CLZ and COVRPRICE content managers. This will be a huge job, so we hired TWO new CLZ content managers to help us! (CLZ Justin has started today and CLZ Bastiaan will start on July 1)
As for the ETA: we are currently aiming for release in Sept 2022.
** WANNA GIVE COVRPRICE A TRY?
