Re: The one & only DCBS discussion / information thread
I used DCBS for a year or so, to just order mainly Omnis and larger collections, but it seems like Amazon has been beating their prices lately and I can cancel them if I see a cheaper price. Once you order from DCBS, you cant cancel. That was my problem. I still check them monthly and then compare prices with amazon and figure in the 5.95 shipping they charge against Amazon's free shipping.

But Amazon also tends go pack big books like shit. I'll pay a few bucks more at dcbs instead of having to deal with returning it at amazon.

They pulled this shit with me with a very expensive blu-ray set recently. The set arrived in an oversized box with no protection whatsoever (except for three of those little air pillows that weren't even inflated and were basically a little sheet of plastic) and arrived badly battered. I requested a replacement and they sent it packaged the same way and likewise damaged. I really hope Amazon enjoyed eating those two $300 sets.

Current special this month is all 52 of DC's #1 for $80. Half off, and not a bad deal if your going all in.

Got my first order from DCBS a few days ago. Packaging was crazy over the top (but that's a good thing). Books were all in pristine condition. I figured I saved a bundle over the LCBS (sorry LCBS!). Good job DCSB.

May have been at least partly my fault as I suggested a DCBS thread when we were first talking about creating a comic book subforum. Who knows, though, from that long ago.
