Do you intend to post what you paid for a book every time you talk about a purchase on the boards?
If someone asks me then yes. Problem?
What's your name and where do you live? How much do you make in a year? Is it a secret?
What people decide to share publicly varies from person to person. Not a problem and not hard to understand/comprehend, either.
You guys having a bad day or what? I asked how much someone managed to get a book for then jokingly asked if it was a secret. Then out come the attitudes. You guys.
Having a very typical day, thanks. Not so much an attitude as questioning why you were pressing the issue. You asked, and he did not answer, so you asked again. If a person wants to disclose what they paid they'll do so after you ask them once. If they don't answer it isn't polite or productive to keep pressing the issue. Like Nexus said, they'll answer if they are comfortable doing so, but if they don't it isn't worthwhile to keep asking them. If you meant it as a joke, humor and sarcasm often come through poorly on the internet when asking questions some might consider personal.
I've no idea why this is even an issue.
As for saying something jokingly online, that's what emoticons can help with.

Will be very interesting to see how they grade these retailer variants. I just got one with some minimal ink rubbing on the back. Not so much the black residue on some of the earlier ones we saw, but still a few flecks nonetheless.
Would be great if this were taken into account like certain comics of recent times (ToT #1 for example).
How much did you get it for?

Thanks for the pic! Nice page

Maybe we should have a sitcom thread.

Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the OA? Is it 11x17? Thanks.
It's a little smaller than 11x17 and it's on watercolor paper, not bristol board.
If i remember I'll snap a pic of it next to a regular size page tonight so you can see the difference
Just found out it's 11"x15"

I sold an Annihilation Conquest set for $125 shipped today. 2 months ago I was selling them for $50-60, last month they were $80, and now $$$.
You mean $99 shipped?
Nah. He offered me another $25 if I guaranteed #6 was a 9.8.
why would he offer to pay more than what the item was listed for?
if i'm reading right, it was to guarantee #6 was a 9.8 (thumbs u

Thanks!

Preacher "Until The End of The World" TPB Cover Recreation by Glenn Fabry.
Triple-matted, black linen top mat. Really happy with how this came out (both the art and the frame-up)
how much did that cost?

Finally got a copy of #3 without that crease defect.

Just re-read the hardcover. This book is complete genius. Absolutely amazing and once Locke & Key finishes (
) it'll be my favourite current book.

Minor pet peeve, but they're not RRP's-- they're retailer incentive variants. Right?
I think RRP is more accurate in this case, as it was created for the retailer summit. Retailer incentive covers are an "incentive" for ordering a certain number of copies of a particular book. RRP = "Retailer Roundtable Promotion"...a comic book that is a gift for attending the retailer summit.
The thing I don't get though, CGC notes RRP right? This book just is noted as a Variant copy. That makes me wonder...
And 300 copies? Wow that is an incredibly low print run.
I'm going to be totally honest though, I don't see this book taking off like we think it will. The book is good, but it is no where near the level of Saga or WD. There is just too much speculation right now and I think it is hurting some of these modern books. I also don't think the cover has the eye appeal.
We will see, but even Saga has sort of maintained where it is on the market. I have a SS copy of number 1, and they aren't even moving on eBay anymore. I tried to sell it to my LCS in a trade and he wouldn't have it. He didn't think he'd move it as he said his sales of the book had slowed.
I also think the Sixth Gun debacle is going to hurt the modern speculators.
Time will tell, but we are barely three issues in to this series and people seem to be getting ahead of themselves.
That's just matter of opinion really. I think Saga is over-rated. I like it but I don't find it mind-blowing. I think East of West is way better. I also don't like TWD.
I think East of West has masses of potential and it's in my top 5 current books, though I'm hesitant to put it there before at least one arc is finished. The world that's being built is massive, the characters are strong (and awesome) and I do believe this will really take off once the first trade is out. Oh and when lots of websites name it comic of the year in December ;-)

Talked with Jonathan today. Evidently, the print run for the RRP is 300.
-
Yeah I wouldn't have paid $200. Guess I got lucky. But I didn't wait until the shops had them in hand. I shopped around before c2e2 and got first dibs

Goodbye $99, hello RRP

Touched on? You think?
Considering one of the women is Death's wife...
You didn't see the new characters in the first few sequences??
You disappoint. I was expecting flowers

The Big Bang theory uses a laugh track.
Which means the producers of the show think its audience is too stupid to know when to laugh.
That's generally how sitcoms work.

We're just having a bit of down time during the summer. It'll pick up again (thumbs u
