I assume you guys are familiar with Tales of Wonder?

I buy wholesale from them...have never been dissatisfied. I can only assume they handle their direct-to-the-customer business as well as the wholesale end.

Thanks, ordered a couple books, mainly the two Escapist volumes.

Was thinking about ordering the 8 or so 30 Days of Night books, but they'd be blind buys. Any thoughts?

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals
 
I've only read a few of the 30 Days books - I would recommend getting at least the first volume, and I remember Dark Days being pretty good as well (the second volume). The only other one I've read is Red Snow, and I felt that was worth a read as well. I prefer the ones with art by Ben Templesmith, though those are mainly the first few (he wrote and drew Red Snow, though).

Thank's again Meatwad's Ghost. My books came in today in great shape and they threw in a few other things.

TFAW.com is having their 70% off sale it started this morning sorry been really busy all day. If you order over $30 you can use code MURDOCK to get free shipping. There is a lot of stuff, I bought way to much. They have/had Creepy 1-5, Eerie 1-3, Give me Liberty Hc w/slip for $15 each and lots of other fun stuff. It was one of the first times I had to remove books from my wishlist for the sale since they had so much I wanted (NEEDED!).

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals
 
yeah I bought about $100 worth of stuff at TFAW since yesterday. They had a lot of great stuff at amazing prices. I really didn't have the room or money for what I bought but that's never stopped me before.

Hopefully some new books get added to the sale before it ends.

I hope not, I spend over $200 on this sale, wow. I've got to the point I don't buy a book unless it's at least 50% off. I really like the old horror stories so all those Creepy and Eerie were a no brainier at $15. I also collect Star Wars and their was a ton of titles I didn't have. The UPS driver and my book shelf will hate me. No to start saving up for the next sale.

Tons of the Marvel Essential books and a few others are very cheap at hamiltonbooks:

http://www.hamiltonbook.com/hamilton...UserTemplate/7

I got a ton of classics at about 2.95 apiece.


Shipping is a little cheaper if you use http://www.edwardrhamilton.com/search.html, but you have to mail in your order there. (it's a flat 3.50 shipping there, or free if you get their mailing)


A few cheap DVD deals can be had there too.

Lulu.com's Cyber Monday deal is 25% all orders. That's on top of their current prices. I got all four volumes of the Absolute Sandman for $50.49 each. You do have to pay for shipping.

Thanks for posting this. I already have it, but on that page I found that the Archie CD collections and a few others are $2.99-3.99 each so I grabbed a few. They must be blowing them out.

Thanks for that dave, price is still available (or 2.99 for just the Movies).

BN.COM is running a sale on kid and teen books. Buy 1 and get the 2nd 50% off. The good news is that this sale includes graphic novels and the expensive omnibuses! I was able to preorder both Cap omnibuses and get the sale price.

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals
 
At gohastings.com right now you can get 5 used books (most TPB are included, sometimes hardcovers work too, but not always) for $20. (they do this deal a lot) The kicker is, it combines with the B2G1 used sale that is going on right now (MMFREE), so you get 4 books for $4 each, 1 free one, and then can add a used DVD or Game of less value than your 2nd cheapest book (before $4 price changediscount) for free.

The other nice thing is, if you add a used book that's less than $4, it gives it to you for the cheaper price, but still counts towards the 5 for the offer.

Shipping ends up being between $6-9 for an order of 5 items, (if your 5th item is a book, it will be 6ish and if it's a DVD it will be 8ish).


<Typical gohastings disclaimer>: Used books may not come in the best shape (they are shipped in bubble mailers). Also, they often cancel orders due to their inventory system being awful and this a crap shoot during B2G1 sales. If one of your B2 gets canceled, you come out ahead and it's a B1G1. If your free one gets canceled, you'll have to complain to hopefully get another title free or a discount.

This was a great deal. Thanks for posting. I've bought several graphic novels from them online, and every one has been in mint condition.

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals
 
Glad you got in on it. I've been getting worse quality lately, but I think it's usually due to shipping (lot's of packages torn open and books crushed or wet). Thankfully, they are quick to refund.

This last round, I ended up getting hardcover versions of three of the things I ordered for some reason.

starman9000 02-06-11 10:52 AM

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals
 
The gohastings deal is live again with the code MMFREE, well sort of. Now it's 5 for $25 instead of $20. I don't know why, but I'm getting free shipping on the book portion today, so it works out even better (5 books and 1 dvd came out to 22.28 shipped, as you still have to pay for the shipping on the DVD). I'm guessing if you have 6 books that are the same price, you could get them all for 20 shipped.

Wow, I just went through my entire Amazon wishlist looking for stuff on Gohastings and almost everything was sold out.

I dunno how big of a deal this is but the new Captain America Lives Omnibus is $35 on Amazon

http://www.amazon.com/Captain-Americ...9391294&sr=8-1

I think list price is $69.99

They seem to be running some aggressive pre-order discounts like 40+%. I pre-ordered a couple Blake and Mortimers at that price and was considering the deluxe Y Last Man 5 because it's under $17, even though I'd decided not to upgrade my other TPBs after getting the first two deluxes.
