CovrPrice FAQ

At CLZ, we have a partnership with CovrPrice. CovrPrice is one of the best comic value services online, providing accurate and up-to-date pricing for both raw and slabbed comics, based on actual recent sales on auction sites like eBay.

Through this partnership, you can get comic values from CovrPrice, right there inside your CLZ Comics app.

Getting Started

How can I get comic values from CovrPrice in my CLZ Comics app?

To get access to these comic values from CovrPrice, you need a subscription to the CovrPrice Premium plan (US $6.95 per month or US $60 per year).
This CovrPrice Premium plan can be purchased right from within the app:

1. Tap on the menu button top left
2. Scroll down a bit to the heading “Comic Values from CovrPrice”
3. There, tap the Subscription Status line, where it says “Subscribe now”
4. Finally, get started with value by choosing Update Values from the menu

I already subscribed to CovrPrice Premium through their website. How do I link my CovrPrice account to CLZ?

1. First, log in to your CovrPrice account
2. Now use this link to the “Access Tokens page”: https://covrprice.com/access-tokens/
3. Copy the access token to your clipboard
4. Go to https://my.clz.com/covrprice and login
5. Now paste the token in the box

When my CovrPrice subscription expires, will I still see the values?

To have access to the CovrPrice values in your CLZ app/software, you always need an active subscription to CovrPrice. As soon as your subscription expires, the values will disappear from the app.

How do I remove the old GoCollect values and/or my manually entered values?

1. From the Series list, choose All Comics to go to your full comic list
2. Tap the checkbox icon at the top to enter Selection Mode
3. Tap the “All” checkbox at the bottom to select all your comics
4. Choose “Edit” from the “Action” button menu.
5. Select the “My Value” field there and proceed. Leaving it empty will clear the values.

About values

I am not getting values for some of my comics, why?

To get value for a comic, this is what needs to happen:

1. CovrPrice needs to have a fair market value calculated for that comic. So if you don’t see a value, always check the CovrPrice.com site first. If CovrPrice does not have a value listed for your comic, then that is why you don’t see a value.
   Remember that values are based on recent actual sales of that comic in that grade, on auction sites like eBay. If there have been no recent sales, CovrPrice cannot determine a value.
2. Our Core entry for that comics needs to be linked to the corresponding CovrPrice entry (over 90% of our comics are linked to CovrPrice). Want us to link a comic? Let us know through Club CLZ
3. Finally, your local entry needs to be linked to Core’s correct comic and variant. If you suspect that may be the problem, use “Re-Link Core Variant” from the Action menu on the comic details page.
   

To get values, will I have to assign a Grade to all my comics?

Ideally, yes, as that will give you the most accurate value. As you know, values greatly depend on the condition/grade of your copy. You can use the efficient Edit Multiple tool to set Grades for ranges of comics quickly, e.g. set all your recent comics to a “9.4” grade, then set all older comics to 8.0, then maybe set your “in bad shape” copies to a “5.0” one by one.

However, if you do not set a Grade, you will still get a value, as CovrPrice will then provide you the value of the most commonly sold grade.

Of course, make sure you at least set your “Raw vs Slabbed” toggle correctly, because that will give you raw CP values or slabbed CP values.

I see a strange value for one of the comics that I suspect is incorrect.

First, always check the Edit screen, to see if you may still have an old value listed in the My Value field. If not, then please report the strange value here, so that the CovrPrice guys can investigate.

Why do some comics show a higher value for a lower grade?

That is quite normal, happens for many comics actually.
CovrPrice values for each grade are based on actual market sales for that grade. Of course, with enough sales tracked, the average value for a higher grade will usually be higher than the average value for a lower grade.
But there is no guarantee that will happen. A user in NY in Dec 2022 may have bought a 6.0 copy for a high price, because he wanted it really badly and no other copies were available. Then in Feb 2022, a user from CA may get lucky and snipe a 9.0 for a low price, maybe because there happpened to be no other bidders.
The real world has no rules :-)

Why am I not getting values for my trade paperbacks (TPBs)?

Does CovrPrice provide values for signed comics?

I am afraid CovrPrice does not provide separate values for signed comics.
Those are particularly hard to determine a value for, as they are sold less often on auction site and also the value can differ based on who signed it.

Can I export the CovrPrice values to a text file, CSV or PDF?

Yes, this is possible if you have a year subscription to CovrPrice, and only via CLZ Cloud (or Comic Connect).
Find out how to export to Text / CSV or print to PDF and make sure to select the “Value” field when exporting!

Is it possible to get the values downloaded in my currency?

Yes, the values will be automatically converted to the Currency you have selected in your Settings screen, using the current exchange rate.
Supported currencies: USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, NZD, NOK, SEK, DKK, CHF, ZAR, BRL, RUB, PLN, IND, CZK, SGD, JPY, and HUF.
