Market and sales data on the League of Comic Geeks is primarily community-driven. Members help submit and moderate sales history to ensure accuracy with complete transparency.
Requirements for Sales Data:
- Must be a completed sale of a single comic. No lots, bundles, etc. 
- Grades are not permitted for Raw comics. This is too subjective. 
- Signed comics are not permitted in sales data. These are outliers. 
- Newsstand Editions should be with their respective variant in our database, not mixed with Direct. 
- If the sale cannot be verified, it does not belong in our database. 
- At this time, only eBay and Heritage auctions are permitted. More will be added in time. 
- eBay "Best Offer Accepted" with final offer prices unknown are not permitted. 
- USD sales are all that is permitted at this time to avoid currency exchange variances, unless the auction site provides this exchange. 
- Reprint sales must be associated to their specific variant listing, not the main cover.
