Faulty Link Button

The “Paste EBay Listing” feature barely works, since I’ve downloaded it. I’ve only got it to work properly once, the rest of the time I click it to try and paste a new listing and it automatically throws me out and I try again it tells me I’m going to fast and need to try again later. Mind you, I’m only uploading the books I own at the moment and want accurate pricing because it won’t give you the accurate price unless it has sells data behind it which you can only get by using the home features. It’s a cool app just needs to be fixed in certain areas for it run properly.

Response from developer

Thanks for the detail. I can't reproduce this on my end, so I'd like to chase it properly rather than guess. If you email support with the eBay link you were pasting when it happened, I'll run it myself and get back to you. One thing worth correcting meanwhile, since it may be costing you results: ComicScout doesn't need sold data to price a book. It uses a graded price guide and live listings too, so you'll get a value on issues with no recent sales. Sold comps raise the confidence score, they aren't required for a number. The "going too fast" limit was too tight for adding a stack of books in one sitting. That's already raised, and it took effect without an update.
