How do you keep track of your collection?

[PBK78]

What does everyone use to track their collection?

 

I used to be on comicpriceguide.com but switched a few years back to stashmycomics.com

turns out FTARH was first a book by Cameron Crowe. It's out of print, and I can't find a decent affordable copy.

+1, I can't recommend it enough, I recently switched and haven't looked back since.

Check my sig. I can update it via a php page I created and edit the text directly and update it. It's archaic, but I wanted to do mess around with filters and see how well Excel exports to HTML; pretty good WYSWIG imo.

 

I'm going to check out the other recommendations tho, great thread!

Oh man, if you organize your collection, you miss out on re-discovering your comics. Nothing nicer than finding out you have two of the same comic!

Oh and I use excel, my memory is not that good

I created a registry. I take a picture of each book, write notes about the book down and then upload the notes, picture and OSPG value in a Excel program - I usually update this every three months for insurance purposes.

I track all my gold/silver/bronze in comicbase. I've given up on moderns. Eventually they'll be old enough for me to care.

 

Every new book I don't want to keep or duplicate goes onto mycomicshop. Whenever I have enough books they want and I don't then I send them in for trade credit.

Occasionally I look through a bunch of long boxes and think... Holy mess, when did I buy that!

 

I use spreadsheets but I am disgraceful at updating my inventory when I buy/sell books...

Maybe I gotta stop buying books when I'm drunk

I DL'd the trial version of this last night. Initially thought it was impressive till I tried to input 2 copies of the same book in different grades.

 

No instructions on how. If it can be done. I'd recommend it. If not, I'll go back to good old Excel.

Comic Collector Desktop Software. I've been using it for ages, although I might be tempted to try the Collectorz.com program.
