We all hate store variants but

I see many sellers with 4, 5, 8, etc. copies available…

Unreal… simply unreal.

JTC specifically stated 1 per. 1 per. Not 2 per. Not 4 per. Not 15 per.
Maybe it’s a store and 15 people work at the store :roll_eyes:, but honestly - don’t care.
It’s unscrupulous… and worse… it’s blatant unscrupulous.

At least list them one at a time four our peace of mind!

I had one of each 9.9s. All three sold. I’m satisfied:

Wasn’t the limit just on the CGC and not the raw, per his IG post, or did that change?

:wink: Exactly.

Then I can withdraw the “brass balls” adjective but still leave in the “unscrupulous” :slight_smile:

Shadowman 1, 2, 3, 4 Mastrazzo connecting covers (Unknown Comics). Shadowman is like the Cubs for me. Always rooting for them, but really don’t expect a win.

Agreed. Things will never change unfortunately. The original seller doesnt care who buys as long as there’s a sellout (no matter how much they claim there is anti-bot protection), and the sellout hypes the product and thus increases the price. Then there’s the buyers who happily pay the overinflated prices. Vicious cycle.

Comics have entered the bot zone. Welcome to the club. It took longer than almost any other collectible/limited release industry.

Sneakers, vinyl, trading cards, clothing, video game systems… good luck getting something you really want in any of those genres… not likely.

Comics are cool now.

This is why I’m thankful that bots can’t physically go to a comic shop and grab stuff off the shelf I want. At least, unless the robots are already posing as humans!

I call those buyers “suckers.”

They are also enablers. Only themselves to blame for these shenanigans:

Yeah, I should probably change my name. It was funny in high school but not so much now.

I like it a lot more than Stegmans 1:50. Do they (MBC) have limits or will they be bought up by other shops?

It’s a shared variant so the other shops already have it as well
