I guess this means that Marvel did not overprint enough to meet demand, which is a good problem to have for stores and speculators that ordered big.

Yeah, itās called āletās create more demandā when thereās already a 2nd printing for orderā¦ itās a ploy likely to createā¦ chaosā¦ see meme above.

So does anyone know what time midtown posts up next weekās books?
Itās anywhere between 11am (CST) and 5pm (CST) Iāve seen them get posted or updated. Basically if you have the day off, just keep refreshingā¦
Lately been around 2-3pm. Iām home all day and thatās usually when I notice the switch.
I pretty much stopped ordering from Midtown so I stopped caring about checking out Wednesdays books until a bit later in the day or weekā¦
I donāt even know what comes out on weds anymore I order so far in advance at tfaw
@Alana same. My preorders are up thru Feb.
@agentpoyo I check for the sold out books. To see if theres something I need sooner to flip thatās āin demandā I notice when midtown sells out most shops do too or it creates a buzz about a book and u know the rest. 8/10 I usually have the book preordered so Iām good. But unknowncomics takes forever and Tfaw is quicker but if I grab a couple copies of a book else where its shipped before either and up for sale it goes.
I use to do the same but most of the books I want Iāve already got on pre-order. Iām in the mood now of, if I missed itā¦ oh wellā¦ on to the next one. I canāt be bothered waiting weeks for a book thatās selling well now to cool off 2 or 3 weeks later when it arrives and then Iām stuck with it and canāt sell it for decent profit.

Yeah me too, I missed a quite a few good ones to pre-order over the years, such as Thor 5 when it reached its heights. (I ordered like 20 Thor 4ās but forgot to order Thor 5). But the profit you make on the ones you pre-order ahead of time, taking in consideration the discount you receive, is well worth it when you are right about a comic becoming popular. Iām betting big on The Next Batman #1.
It used to be 1pm.
The last year itās been more like 3pm to 4pm.
One week it was 5pm.
Takes time to browse eBay to determine how much theyāre gonna jack the price up toā¦

Still not posted, man, they really taking their time today.
Letās predict what Midtown does, then. My guess: limit 1 each of the open order covers, and the incentives will be 3x ratio.

Agreed with limit 1 of each regular covers. I say the 1:25 will be $75, the 1:10 will be $35.
Edit: just realized these numbers were exactly what you said lmao
