I think @RipCityGamer said they would be up tomorrow.
FOC is not until 2/22âŠstill time
Not weighing in either for or against here, just providing info.
I asked if there would be evidence of destruction or donation and they responded:
Nothing at my local Walmart yet. I usually have luck there too. Iâll have to check again later this week.
What kind of journalist are you?! Presenting info in a totally unbiased, straight down the middle type of way?!
Also, this is meant to read incredibly sarcastically.
coa lol they make those themselves lol
But itâs more efficientâŠ(also sarcastic)
Iâm more curious about what explanation they have for completely removing the cover of the âreader copyâ, thus making it impossible to tell what cover it originally had. As they originally stated that those âreader copiesâ would be copies of the store variant.
PS. It must of been more efficient for them to come up with wholly uncreative, generic name of âcomicbookexclusiveâ, then it was to come up with a name that had any ounce of thought put into it. (meant to be read with sass and sarcasm too)
It seems half or just under half of walmarts donât do comics. Theres 4,700 walmarts. If 2000 stores got 3 packs, thatd be about equivalent to a 1:20 if 100,000 were printed. Is this correct? And I assume about 1/6 get manhandled by the vendor, unruly children and thieves, so maybe 4000-5000 NMâs or less?
I donât like the idea that theyâre taking pics and not an actual video thatâd be harder to fake or doctor.
Doesnât wookie already do something like this? Also wookie I found your Instagram and liked your comment to show moral support
Yeah, a COA is not proof⊠oh for fscks sake⊠now theyâre just gonna try and weasel out any way they can if weâre gonna get responses like this. Plus, yes, they still need to explain the entire cover missing, not a portion. A portion of the cover would have left the âexclusiveâ portion remaining, thus providing such proof that they did in fact destroy one of their exclusives.
Basically now at this point, the lack of evidence will be evidence against them. Thereâs more than 600 copies of each cover out there cause we all know they didnât destroy something thatâs selling for $400+ on the secondary.
This is such bullshit⊠itâs one thing if youâre a store and you just claim âlimitedâ and donât explain anything else but when you say youâre going to do something as in destroying, then you better do what you say cause itâs just going a mile further in the deception of the people who bought copies.
I hope some who bought these opens an inquiry with their local or state authorities to look into this sale deception and lies.
I donât have a comprehensive list of Sith Lords during the high republic era.
Iâll tell ya who does: wookieepedia, Jedi-bibliothek.de, and a number of other databases.
I dunno. Good for them for writing what seem like interesting articles. Iâm just kind of bend out of shape because a couple months ago they implied they were responsible for the recent fervor around Star Wars books. I took exception because there are those of us who have been collecting and reading Star Wars for 20, 30, 40+ years who already had resources and knew about all these appearances and keys before everybody and their dog came in and inflated our books from $2.00 books to $40+ etc. whatever, Iâm just a little sour on their inflated sense of importance to Star Wars collecting. Many have come before who have put in years of work cataloging this stuff.
There are too many assumptions in your equation for it to hold any water, imo.
You guessed how many stores donât get comics.
Youâve guessed how many copies each store would get.
Youâve guessed a certain percentage of damages.
Too many variables to come up with any semblance of an accurate number of copies, let alone NM copies.
Taking multiple individual pictures is more efficient than taking one video.
Itâs going to be like 6 photos in one Instagram post.
Really? What an absolute joke of an unjustified, over inflated ego. Unless cbsi created and released the covid19 virus, while simultaneously writing and directing the Mandalorian season 2 fan service, then they have absolutely nothing to do with Star Wars comics current demand.
Iâll bet dollars to donuts that CHUs forum is far outpacing the sheepâs pen that is cbsi as far as users and daily hits.
I literally visit cbsi once every few months when Iâm bored and need to kill a few minutes. Itâs a literal afterthought for me. That site is so messed up with ads, self promotion, and authoritarian mods.
pic will show a few books, when marvel forces you to buy 3k/1k
