Would it be possible to have an option to default the value to cover price if there is no value provided by Covrprice? This would help primarily with TPBs, HCs, and collections/box sets. Then if a value does get linked it could override this cover price value. I figure this has been discussed already but couldn’t find a thread on it… thanks in advance for reading!
We’ve had a couple of topics on this on Facebook, discussions with users via email, I think we haven’t had one on the forum yet - but to answer your question:
No this is not possible currently.
We have had various suggestions on this:
- Not use any value, as it is now.
- Do not use “stale values” from CovrPrice only “actual values” when calculating totals.
- Use the cover price of a comic as value if no value is available (and lots of people against this, or for it, or for it and have it include a percentage of the cover price of a comic, based on the age - making this a very big monster of a setting configurator).
So in short: we are aware of the wish, we haven’t decided to implement this yet (and how big we want to make it).
Thank you for the quick reply. That percentage escalator or depreciation option within the third bullet point would be awesome, but I understand this could be a lot of effort to get implemented. I’ll hold out hope it’ll remain a long-term goal to be incorporated down the road.
