No, the book auction does not count. We cannot simply filter in there what are items that are comic related.

I do not find the adjustment of the rules very annoying since I participate in the auction more often than the shops.

After my previous reaction on the forum (deliberately sus and erase image bought in a catawike shop to receive envelope of the month) I understood that the sending of the Bommel envelope was delayed.

Then I bought lot 31 from the 2nd Bommel auction (low number to be sure of a leftover copy) to get the other stamp version of the envelope as well.

Until now I have not been allowed to receive any of the Bommel FDCs, while I now read an old message on the forum that someone has received it for a while.

Is this correct?

Indeed, the FDCs have already been sent. I just checked out what's going on and it went wrong because you ordered a statue. We will contact you about this. Will be fine.

Good morning René,

Is there any outcome on how to tackle the comic envelope issue?

I see in Catawiki that more than 10 collectors have already received the April comic envelope from Sigmund. I have not yet received this while I ordered more than 50 euros in April.

Send Franka's right away, because with my orders in May I did not know that the conditions had changed. ; o) (just kidding, but still ....)

Fr. Greeting from Franka collector.

@ charlie1975, You wrote when I was away for a few days:

If you bought an image then that is also the problem I think because it only concerned orders in shops for comic books and stamps. Otherwise send me a personal message and we will look at your other orders to see if we can do something about it. Also because the shipment of the special Bommel envelope as a result of the 2nd Toonder auction indeed appears not to have been sent yet. The latter is now going to happen tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.

@Zoutman, we're going to take a look at the situation with your orders in April. We will come back to that next week because the person who does this is no longer there this week.

We have not yet found a solution for the problems with the strip envelope in relation to shop purchases, so the arrangement will remain as it is now. If you have made special purchases for the envelope in shops just before my post about this in early May. Send me a message and we'll see what we can do for you.

The solution is actually very simple: do not count purchases from small shops for the strip envelope. That must be very easy to arrange. It is also immediately clear to buyers from most shops whether they are offering for more or less than € 200, but if necessary you can build in something to make that more visible. Small shops can then at least continue to sell for free, but there is still an incentive to buy from the larger shops if you want an envelope (just as having a pro shops is an incentive to buy there) and with that generate commission for Catawiki.

Everyone's happy: buyers get their envelopes, big sellers can sell a little more, small sellers can keep selling for free, and Catawiki has more commission income. Because in the end, it is of course all about the latter (which is also completely fine, if you offer a service that people like to use). And people who buy the daily offer have already benefited from the low prices, you can say.

Like a number of others here, I find suddenly changing the terms halfway through a bad idea and a solution that has not been well thought out. I had already made my purchases for this month before I found out the terms had changed. It makes Catawiki an unreliable medium, which is a shame.

Sorry Willie64, but I think that's a very, very, very bad idea. Why on earth should small shops be punished and excluded from the sales-stimulating effect of the comic envelope.

@pegag

The small shops are already excluded from the sales-stimulating effect of the strip envelope due to the current measure

With the solution of Willie64, the collectors of the comic envelope are met

@pegag

Has nothing to do with penalties at all (and are you not now penalizing all shops with the new conditions?). Small shops do not pay commission. The main purpose of the envelope is to generate income for you (more sales, more commission). For the shops, the advantage is that it stimulates sales. It seems fair to me that the shops that pay commission are more supported in this than shops that do not pay commission. Free hitchhiking with shops that keep Catawiki in their feet thanks to their commission already seems very nice.

And don't say that you don't want to make a distinction between shops, because you already do that with the pro-shops. They are also favored compared to the other shops (analogous to your comment, you can also say that the other shops are "punished" " to become). Not only do you openly advertise the pro shops by pointing out the benefits they would offer, but they are also always at the top of the lists of items for sale, even if they sell the same for a (much) higher price. To suddenly want to equate the small shops with the big ones in this case is at least a bit hypocritical (or not well thought out).

Just to be clear, I do not own any shares in Catawiki, I am not paid by Catawiki and I do not determine shop policy. So I do nothing at all (Except straightening curved input then)

What I do do is stand up for the small shop in a personal capacity, because I personally see with sorrow how the little man with his box of double is no longer welcome at any fair because he has at least 20 meters a raison rent a lot per meter. While they are in many ways the salt in the porridge, nice books for nice prices. And I believe that Catawiki should provide them with a haven and a platform. I would like to leave that you call that hypocrite entirely at your expense

What annoys me blindly are people who once had something for free and then start screaming murder and fire when they don't get it afterwards. Rather than being happy that they were lucky for a while, they are angry because they feel they are entitled to it. I know it's very modern to think like that, but so it's just not true. And if they really want to be angry, they have to be angry with the people who find it necessary to make a living for 5 bucks or a few euri commissions. They screwed it up for the rest, not Catawiki.

The Franka envelope will probably be sent at the end of next week. It took a bit more production time than usual, but they are also very beautiful!

I'm curious. The comic envelope of June is also still questionable. Or does it not go through at all now that orange does not become a "champion"?

;-P

P.S. At the bottom of the info page is another button to Catawiki Marketplace. This is misleading, because purchases there no longer count towards the envelope.

That button is indeed not good, we have overlooked that. Let's adjust!

The week is over and I can't wait and all.

But it says

probably at the end of next week

and the next week has just begun ...
(And in some calendars, that week doesn't start until tomorrow, by the way.)

Yeah ... You're right ... I write that I post first and only then read back the latest posts .... Just try to turn me out a bit. Although if you reversed the date of the message it was now the end of the week ... Btw, to turn the date around and make this week next week you must have studied quantum physics ... And if you did that it was a different subject :)

Uh, if you really want to look at it metaphysically, you have an even bigger problem. Because it will never be "at the end of next week", because it is always "this week". Just like it never gets tomorrow, because it is always today.

hello Rene,

I am now also curious how it works exactly. I bought a book from the daily offer (adhemar) at the end of April but was not allowed to receive a comic envelope, is it possible for you to let the buyers know if you are 'outside the prices'?

I'd love to hear it

Maybe you didn't receive anything because the daily offer in April did not count for the comic envelope yet ?!
