That’s one heck of a freebie. Congrats
I emailed them to say I thought there was a mistake and would return the book. They said to keep it due to a promo. Even better the cover is completely flawless.
But yeah… I’ve been back a few times since. They had the X-Men Empyre #4s with the cool cover so I grabbed two of those and they were here quick. Shipping was great.
I have a extra one if you need it
Thanks. Didnt order was jus sharing the news. Seems stores are gettin screwed out of books lately
Ah. No problem. Appreciate the heads up.
Thought I’d add a quick story and give a rave review for Poor Boy Comics. I’ve made a couple purchases from them recently (Robin King related), and they always come packaged very well. The last order I made had 2 of the Robin King Death Metal 3 variants, however, when I got the package I was missing one. So I figured, “here we go, hot book that got pulled from my order.” I emailed the shop, and within minutes, I had an email back apologizing and saying I would get the book. Within minutes, I had a tracking number on the package coming to me. Mike from Poor Boy even said he’d throw in a free book. I got the package last night, and the Death Metal looks perfect and even got the reprint of Batman Adventures 1 as the freebie. I have to give Mike and Poor Boy Comics an A+ for what they did.

I’ve been adding well-reviewed stores to my bookmarks. I’ll add them too!
Just had my Spawn 309B order cancelled from the Dark Side comics. Reason provided was:
“ All copies of cover B were damaged in shipping”.
That’s a new one for me…
Mmm… you should ask them about Covers A and C… Why is it that only hot books get reported “damages” in shipment… and when did they tell you? They should have known about the damages at least 3 days ago…

“Damaged in shipping”. Ah yes. Have experienced that one recently with my Legends issues. So far … have not had it on my Spawns but also don’t have the issues in my hands yet. 
Concur with Jkron1 on Black Cape for packaging and shipping.
I ordered some x-men #2s from Black Cape and the books came in NM. I would purchase from them again for sure.
Imma check black Cape out. You guys givin good reviews and poor boy already came thru with my legends so they can def get some biz from me again.
X-Men #2?
EDIT: Saw what you mentioned.
I recommend Beach Bum comics they only sell preorder books that are CGC but it’s not that expensive $50-$60 a book free shipping at $100. I purchased a Death Metal Legends and it arrived early about a week from the stated ship time which is pretty amazing given the post office and this book going through CGC
Do they come slabbed already? Apologize if a dumb question, as I have not purchased from them before.
Yes all slabbed 9.8 only a handful of raw comics maybe on the website
I was just informed by Justin Comics (after I proactively reached out to them since crickets on my Spawn 309 B order), and got this: “ Thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately, we were shorted the Spawn 309 Cover B due to distributor error; we ordered the item correctly from the distributor, but the distributor did not fill the order correctly.”
2nd time in last month or so where a ‘hot’ comic I pre-ordered correctly is ‘shorted’ by a distributor.
