My Collection: Comic Scanner

This app is a joke. HipComic is what happens when someone tries to slap AI buzzwords on a broken eBay mirror and call it innovation. Their so-called ‘value engine’ spits out inflated fantasy prices with zero grading context, no sales validation, and no transparency. You’re not getting market data — you’re getting algorithmic fiction designed to trap you in their dead marketplace. And let’s talk about that marketplace: it’s a zombie graveyard of duplicate eBay listings and sellers who’ve publicly called them out for holding funds, botched payments, and ghosting on support. You don’t own your collection — they do. You can’t export it. You can’t audit it. But sure, scan your book and let HipComic tell you your $20 filler issue is worth $200. Because that’s what this is: a lie wrapped in a scanner wrapped in a paywall. This platform should come with a disclaimer: ‘Not built for collectors. Built to fool them.’ If you care about real comps, grade accuracy, or actual ownership of your data — run.

I’m not sure if the pricing is accurate or how they base the pricing, but outside of that everything is great! Easy to use though it takes a while for new comics to be added to the platform. It will automatically update once that happens though👌🏽

Considering the app is in beta it still works pretty well. Especially for people like me who aren't quite looking to sell but just curious about what their collection costs. It doesn't have every comic but thats to be expected theres so many out there, but the system for inputting info is good. However, and I might have missed it I would like a button to remove a comic from your collection, either if you sold it or in my case i accidentally added 2 of the same since the issues have very similar covers and i didnt double check.

The app was ok at first but more I use the more I realize it doesn’t recognize half my collection. Even though I see it elsewhere on app makes no sense.

At first the app was awesome I was adding books with no problems until I hit issue 57. Then it stopped taking any additional books. Then I kept trying to add another book and it said user not found and deleted everything I had entered. Now it states my email and password are incorrect. It’s really frustrating taking the time to add 57 books and they disappear 😡😡

I’m having the same issues that a lot of others are experiencing. I even have the subscription. A lot of scans aren’t available or if the information comes up , there’s nothing there. Or saying that it’s not available. When I first started to use it, it worked fine. Now I can’t seem to get anything to scan or information is wrong

I use this to keep track of what I’ve got in my collection. It’s easy to use on the go.

When the app is working it detects about 75% of what I scan. A lot of newer stuff it can’t detect and if it does there’s no pricing. I love the concept and I think with improvements it’s got great potential. My biggest complaint is it logs you out randomly, sometimes while your in the middle of scanning then won’t let you log back in, says password is incorrect but it isn’t. Frustrating to say the least. I have to delete and reinstall the app often. Next time I think I will look for a alternative when I delete. Update: Now it says incorrect password and when I reset it says all good until I try to log in and it still says incorrect. BROKEN APP with a ton of time wasted in this trash app.

Did anyone test this app on an iPhone? On the 14, the log in (under the hamburger menu) is directly under the time (phone interface) so there’s no way to touch “through” the time numbers to touch the Log In area on the app.

Is hipmoney the same as real money
