He's 10,000% correct. Hate? I don't see any hate. I see a retailer who has been in the business 35 years pleading with people to stop destroying the artform.

Speculation on brand new books has resulted in a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of readers left. The artform is being destroyed by jags who run into a store to scoop up all available issues to sell to other idiots online.

It wasn't so bad when there are available copies for readers to buy. But it's been virtually impossible for over 20 years now, because of the tight ordering required to stay afloat.

If you're buying something brand new to flip online, denying a reader the chance to obtain it, you're contributing to the problem. Not sorry if that offends people. People in the 90s lost everything...sometimes due to their own mistakes and stupidity, sometimes not...because the buying public treated all new comics like potential goldmines, like the latest hot piece of kitsch from the Franklin Mint. It hasn't changed. 

You want to speculate on new books? Put your damn order in with Diamond. The FOC is now a mere three weeks before publication. Stop ruining the ability of retailers to get comics to readers. It's hard enough as it is.

He tells them To Eff off sounds like hate to me.

I understand if you dont like speculators but holy smokes.

The hate in this article is amazing to me.

He is ripping into a certain comic stores pricing structure.

He never says the name but we all know who it is.

Now they have secret pink variants too.

STEPHENSON is full of poo poo.

Holy smokes i guess its all about the wording in your auction and you too can be getting way over the going rate.

Good luck to that buyer on that one.

Sounds like he had an exclusive cover made and owns all 600 copies.

 

From his description-our first collaborative IGComicstore Exclusive Variant Limited to 600 copies worldwide

Looks like you are correct he did it with a few other stores.

igcomicstore on ebay ? 

ebay member

He presold 50 copies of this limited print run of 600 earlier this month and now has 40 more up for sale.

I'm finding it hard to think he was able to buy 90 sets to get this comic as this was the only way to purchase this comic was in a set.

I could be wrong i just find it strange.

Anybody know him as he only has a 6 rating on ebay.

Out of 30 comic books ordered from them as NM only 1 was NM , 2 NM-, 9 VF/NM, 11 VF, 6 Fine Condition and 1 VG.

This is not good its very very bad.

Also saying Out of STock on items and then i still see them on sale on the website is quite odd.
