Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

These are all likely to come remainder marked, right? Unless by luck the pen doesn't fully pierce the plastic?

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

I'm probably missing something here in terms of a defined sale, but Amazon is doing a ton of digital coupons on individual books. I don't know if there's any rhyme or reason to what is eligible (many...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

Thanks. There's 20 pages stuff if you filter down to books then comics/graphic novels, although some non-comic stuff is in that mix too. Some stuff from the b2g1, but more TPBs in the sub-$15 range...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

I believe that was ebooks only.

No coupon for a single book for Amazon either this year, unless they drop it tomorrow for Cyber Monday.

They were running a B2G1 on select titles but I didn't...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

They promised you a new book. A book with damage or that is clearly read is no longer new. If you want to return them, just tell them. If they try to tell you know, threaten a credit card charge...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

I bought a few DC books to plug some gaps in addition to a couple of the weekly deals. I almost went overboard on DC books, but the extra 1% discount compared to the often available combo of 45% off...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

What did they use inside their "bombproof" packaging? Newspaper?

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

Personal preference aside, Omnibus doesn't technically mean big bulky book. The technical definition via Google search is "a volume containing several novels or other items previously published...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

Not sure what you want them to put in it to make it less skimpy. It's going to be all those flash issues those two worked on. Omnibus, Deluxe Edition - it's just semantics. The only other relevant...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

The Amazon Marketplace prices for these clearance Omnibuses now seem to be better than eBay for the most part in a reversal from when retailers first got them in. Of course, this happens right after...

Well that's the thing - they don't update it every year, even though time obviously passes meaning there are new happenings to add each year. There are the original editions and now they've rolled...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

On the Titan front: The Watching the Watchmen HC from them was unsealed but unmarked. The Aliens TPB was marked and had some wear to it. On other forums I saw someone say their Snowpiercer books were...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

I've tried that in the past. It's futile with Marvel remainders. They really press that sharpie marker on there hard, so there's relatively significant bleed through on the pages. You'll end up with...

My order came in today too.

All of the Marvel books were remainder marked which is rather annoying since they didn't bother to disclose what books were remainder marked on the website. Now that's...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

Thanks. I was too slow pulling the trigger on eBay and now dheader has raised prices quite a bit. I'm hoping someone else comes through to be more competitive but some of these books are pretty...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

Yeah but his own prices are cheaper on eBay than Amazon Marketplace by quite a bit, though he just raised prices on a few books last night on eBay and now people aren't biting as quickly.

eBay seller dheader has the clearance Omnis up. All are reasonable prices, some are cheaper than others though.

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

Yes.


Also, I wouldn't necessarily expect Amazon or IST to have these deep discount Omnis directly.

IST sometimes has them on discount, but I don't think they had them the last time Marvel did...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

I'm on the CGN sucks bandwagon. I have to admit some of their Omnibus sale prices are tempting, but living in California, the discounts all but disappear after tax and shipping. Other retailers will...

Some pretty good discounts on books, including a lot of DC Archives and Showcase volumes as well as a few DC Omnibuses: http://www.hamiltonbook.com/books?cat_id=GN

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

He just passed away within the last day. Looks like the first volume of SHOWA is OOS on D&Q.

Shipping for the other 3 volumes plus Hitler to America was quoted at $9.97 Media Mail for me.

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

I think that has to do more with the publishers clearing out their warehouses, than IST actually clearing out their warehouse.

Other retailers had an influx of many if not most of those DC...

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

I bought a ton of their DC clearance stuff for 50-60% off last time they had a 3 or 4 wave clearance sale. Sometimes more if I had the additional 2% discount running.

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

And Image.

Does anyone remember if IST did any general 50% off (or anything higher than 45% off) around holiday shopping season last year, or is 45% off as good as it gets for older releases now?

Re: Comic Book Bargains & Hot Deals

Sometimes it is already in bad shape on the shelf, but I think most of the time certain damage is clearly a result of poor shipping practices.

I've had countless packages from Hastings where the...
