Last comment on this very specific situation, but to further show Graham Cracker's "service", they liked a post by a random stating "Sometimes losing a customer is a total win".

Again, without ever contacting me directly, or speaking with me about my particular issue. They just keep reiterating that they don't have a record of my subscription in their physical sheets, which I agree with, but that is not my story.

Was going to give them the benefit as they are close and I've had a pull list there for 8+ years but now forget them.

Plenty of other great spots in greater Chicagoland, for sure.

One local store had a lot of shelf copies of the standard version of High Republic #1, considering they’ve already announced a third print.

That 2nd print cover is a nice use of interior art too,  it should have been a cover image.  Already a couple sales of it at 20.

 

Any idea what the 3rd print cover is?

I’m a bad boy who expects people/businesses to stick to their word and prices. I’m finding comics was a bad choice of hobby in that regard. 

Kind of expect shenanigans with one-off sellers and choosing money over integrity but not established businesses.

I told Big Al to get himself a copy at a local shop out south. He said the shop had raised the prices to $20 and $30 each

Are these worth keeping now that they are in this range (yes, these are high sales) given that I bought the sets for $10 a piece a month ago ... I don't know star wars books, i figured at $2 a pop they were a no lose proposition as my teenager likes star wars comics (especially the dark horse stuff) ... does anyone know if any of them may touch on any of the 15,000 projects they have in the works?:

I'm selling all my remaining star warsbooks this week on ebay. Who knows if I'm selling them too cheap. But they've sat in boxes for months and this is the best time to move them.

I believe in selling and not holding. I have way too many books to hold

Makes sense. What is the chance these are one day $100 sets? I should be happy they seem to have gone up 300-450% in a month.

I’d sell now. In order for these to really blow up Disney would have to start exploring some Old Republic stuff, which it doesn’t sound like it has any plans for at the moment. You’d probably have to sit on these for a few years for any additional appreciation.

I don’t think they will sink down to $1 bin fodder again, but now is a good time to sell.

Maybe I will grab a couple.  I will just load up on the Sway variant.

Look at some of the prices for that variant now - more so the current auction prices despite ending in six-days time lol

Given that - clearly speaking, mind you - the IDW won't be selling as much as the Marvel issues, it should be very intriguing to see where this 1:10 ends up in the future lol

Is it me, or does this cover kind of rock ?

+1   

As soon as my temp job is finished I am cashing out too. Saving a handful and the rest go up for sale.
