Ebay seller just cancelled on me from several days ago.

It’s also funny how I feel like the risk of buying a few more Dorcs is significantly lower because the cover price is only $3.99. If it was $4.99 or $5.99, I’d be more nervous. :slight_smile:

Wrong thread, but was it a “hot” item? Was it a Dorc?

I need to list crisis 1-8 books. It’s been an ok anthology…different for sure…but thinking I’m going to cash out. I’ll keep 1 copy of 1A just in case it turns into the next Ice Cream Man…I may even grab issue 9 to read…But would rather have the cash.

I don’t think of ComicHub shops as a honey hole. 9/10 times lately it screws me over…either the order doesn’t go through or the shop cancels/alters my order.

Plus half the stores are pick-up only. The other half charge $8+ shipping now.

Then there’s the one shop that banned me because I orders the same book twice…which I didnt (it was a glitch that occurred during checkout and it got submitted twice). They don’t return my calls or emails. I’ve been ordering/picking up books there for years too. After they would not respond I created a new username under a different email…ordered one book and they cancelled it/banned that account too.

They haven’t had a hot book for several months anyway….but the convenience of having books held and not paying shipping was nice.

My point is…unless you have one of the comic hub shops local to pick up books…it’s pricey and a PITA sometimes because the program they use is antiquated and prone to errors.

Also, I thought there was a thread a few year back of online shops. I think we got up to 20 or so.

Bring it back. (The thread)

I order from one store that I can get hot books 8/10 times. It is a comic hub store. Localish but in DC so I wont drive to it.

Will pay the $8 for shipping if I am getting several books.

Just did a $30 order from them the other day and sold the stuff for close to $90 so wont complain about the $8 shipping.

I swung by my LCS this afternoon and they had 4 copies of D’Orc 1. I bought the NM one but the others looked to be VF/NM so I chickened out on those. Listed my cover A for $40 and it sold in an hour. Maybe I should have held for a while. Oh well, profit is profit. I found two more Superman 34 cover E’s. They looked like 9.2’s so I priced one $5 lower than the NM ones I sold. It too sold within an hour. Tax return money is here!!! Time to sell stuff.

January was Christmas money and Christmas bonuses money. Now we are on to tax returns.

I was critical of flipping but discussed how I was coming around, and you helped me become an even bigger fan of it. The crossover posts were fun. We did a cute literary thing where I opened with, “I’m David Bitterbaum and I used to think comic speculation was the devil,” while Tony opened his post with, “I’m Anthony/Tony and I’m the devil.” We’re funny.

Yupper dorc

I’ve sold 4 of my 5 copies of Dorc. Last one at $40+ship. I have a 6th copy, but will probably hold that unless it spikes higher than $40.

Hope it holds as I wait a week for my copies to show
Up!

Keep going up!!!

Sold 3 for $34.99. Bumped one up to $37.99 it sold. Sold a B cover for $25.

Have more in order or on hold for me.

5 of 5 Dorc copies now sold. But, the shops I normally hit are officially out, so that may be it for me.
