Frankie’s with the free shipping is a win
Here is the front and back of the Walmart variant. The paper is wavy. If I send this to get graded I will get it pressed.
These were the two comics that came in the pack that I got.
I see Diamond is still trying to get rid of those lenticular covers…lol
Yes, lol. I hate those type of covers.
Or stick in a not super tight but snug longbox for a few months and it’ll flatten out over time and for “FREE”
Yes. That is what I hope will happen. I have been flipping my comics so that they face each other. I have to start going through some of the stuff I have and send a few to get graded. Especially any early SIKTC comics.
Looks like this CBSI ‘600’ limited exclusive is off to a rough start their servers have been down since before release
Edit - only reason I know is because I’ve been waiting and it’s nearly 1AM in the UK so if I fall asleep well done to everyone who manages to get one!
@WelshWizard Yeah, heck of a fiasco they created with this one. I’m not sure telling folks that their “hitting refresh too much” was the issue will play out real well lol.
It happens…I’m always amazed how crazy and upset folks get over “stuff”.
Haha, it only loads a wordpress login… haha… Maybe I should offer my tech expertise…
So they just updated----200 on sale tonight at 10pm eastern, another 200 tomorrow at some point.
Pffftt…may the odds be forever in your favor on that nonsense.
I bet they’re upgrading their www.siteground.com hosted website from starter to a bigger plan… the starter only allows 10k visitors a month… geez, I hope they didn’t select that plan, seems awfully low number. CHU get that in a day most days…
I’m just going to sleep there’ll be another ‘hot’ book I can flip in another week or two anyway there always is
Yup, that’s how you do it. If you miss out, oh well, there will be others…
Learning from the best big AP
Edit - and Anthony, wookie and everyone else sharing their knowledge and spec picks on here
Market prices aren’t set by sellers. They are set by buyers.
The reason a book sells for $30, 24 hours after it was selling for $100, is because the book was never truly worth $100 to begin with. Fomo cough cough It sells for $30 now because that’s what the market has told us. It will probably drop more as more copies are found and listed. This book is not hard to find, and there are several covers of this issue already that are in more demand. There are currently over 50 active listings for the walmart variant on eBay alone. This book is not hard to find in the least. None of the walmart books are, imo.
I’ve heard that shops are now purposely redirecting certain pages on their sites to show that the page with the new variant on sale as being not available.
I’m not a tech guy, but they said that if the site allows you to navigate other pages, while not being able to view the page where you can purchase the new book, then that page is purposely being redirected. I’m not wholly sure of a shops endgame if this was their plan, but it leads one to think that it creates a false sense of demand, while giving an excuse for the shop to use when they pick who and where one can actually purchase a copy. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them using their sites ‘problems’ to justify selling them at a higher price on another platform. . Don’t be a fool and let this stores horrendous attempts at creating false scarcity fool you into thinking their books are special, or valuable, in any regard.
I’ve seen these “Wordpress” host providers display the login page when customers meet their plans limits as well…
I wouldn’t be surprised these guys were paying the $6.99 basic Wordpress hosting plan and hit their 10k limit for the month, so now they have to upgrade… But ya never know.
The Wook is better at spending money on comics than making money. You’ve been warned.
I lied
I stayed awake it’s 3:20AM the site never loaded I had it open on a laptop, 2 phones and even on my Xbox and they’re saying they’ve sold out
Their first exclusive was an actual good cover and homage and similarities to the clone wars, it all worked for me on a spec level especially with all of the first appearances in the issue which is why I picked it up. This second exclusive they’re just tryna chase what they had with #1, I don’t think it’s a good combination for the #3 issue at all which is why I paid no mind to this second exclusive.
