Single own pictures

This is the same as a normal auction using it own pictures, description, etc.   However, if you set a Generic stock group and an issue number or issue date, then you can look up any information in the generic stock database for this comic/magazine/books, etc.


Fields that can be used in descriptions

You can then use these fields in your descriptions:

<GENERIC_DESCRIPTION> - This is the contents of the issue, if this information is available, or blank otherwise.   These can also be used in system templates.
