Pros and cons of Midtown Comics app for iPhone and iPad
Midtown Comics app good for
I really like this to keep track of what will be out each week. Good preview of covers too.
As a comic book geek, love this app for keeping me up to date on whats coming out each week. Although Im up in Canada, and havent actually ordered from it yet, I use it quite a bit to see what statues and books are coming out and how much they are going to cost. I find their prices really reasonable, so eventually can see ordering some merchandise through them.
Items always arrive quickly and on time if not early. Prices and grading clearly visible and easy to follow.
Great site-on time subscription orders-bagged and boarded-free shipping at a certain amount ordered-all comics are mint..Darrin Marsh
Love the the app and has gotten better with the last several updates.
Ive ordered new comics, back issues and also supplies (bags, boards, etc.) and the transactions went very well. The app is easy to use and has a few good bells and whistles.
Some bad moments
The app does what it should, allows you to buy items from the store in a better way than going to the website. However, the interface just seems clunky and feels like everything is a bit tougher to do than it should be (searching for specific items, front-page links to lists, viewing account information and previous orders)
Edit: Recently has started a never ending loading screen after placing an order, making it seem like it never goes through. However, when checking my account on safari it clearly went through. Has happened every time over the last month.
I downloaded this app and added everything I need to the cart and when Im about to checkout i press calculate shipping/tax. I receive a message saying cannot reach network, no internet connection. I log onto my wifi and yet the same message. I switch networks, same message. I reinstall the app and restart my phone still nothing. This app is useless and apparently there isnt any solution. I will not deal with Midtown Comics ever again. Do yourself a favor, DONT INSTALL THIS POORLY DEVELOPED APP!
I wanted to go up to 4 stars but when an app that makes it easy to purchase what you want but impossible to cancel an order is not a good app!
I can find most comics that I am looking for but you have to make sure you dont make a mistake or else you end up with an issue that you cant cancel or return.
I can never order from this app. Nothing but order errors that will not allow me to check out, and I have to sign in every time I go to a new page.
Ive had this app on 3 different phones and its rarely ever works for me. Love the site and wish the app worked just as well.
I tried ordering my comics through the app to get 20% off, but the app was too glitchy so I went to the website and logged in, added everything i wanted to the cart, and logged back in through the app and my cart was empty. Now I have to deal with the glitchy app while Im trying to add comics to my cart
