  1. Yes, I have noticed this lately, too. He didn't even speak about his books or anything before, but now he's pumping his books a week before they are released and then every time some variants are out of stock. Same with the Arthur Adams comics he's now promoting. I know I'm bitter because the way he handles his variants lately has left me out of the completionist faction, but I don't like that there's not really some added value now. I still love his art, but this year was the last I could get all of his books. Sad.
  2. Sadly I agree. It's getting pretty expensive to be a Campbell collector, not to say a completionist. Add the fee for international shipping and that they decided not to combine shipping anymore and it goes crazy... it is bad for my wallet. The con exclusives are a pain, too. I like them and would be paying resellers elevated prices. Sigh...
  3. Really? I wonder what happened... and, again, their service sucks now.
  4. No, the service used to be better. Sadly, it's really crappy now. I was one of the first to buy and sent them a couple of emails. I sent another one last Friday, as they escalated to their manager, and the next day I got confirmation from both my orders but no reply from them, which could've saved me shipping costs. As lately the sets are not being sold out, I will see if I continue to buy from the store... love the covers and the guy, but service is not what it used to be.
  5. Campbell only did, obviously, the girls on the right. The rest is Ramos and, even when I must admit I was a great fan, he's drawing worse and worse each day. This cover could've been great, but that MJ looks baaaaad.
  6. I emailed them about combined shipping as I placed my order for the X-Men covers (Gold and Blue) and the Jean Grey set. I have to pay international shipping for each separate order which is $20+ per package and it's an even bigger hit on my wallet (they do not combine shipping anymore). They supposedly put me in contact with one of the managers, but haven't heard back. The Customer Service used to be top notch, but now I'm not feeling that. Also, my order is 191xx and have not shipped, but may be related to my email.
  7. I'd be interested in knowing the prices for international customers once they are defined. This is better than just ebaying!
  8. I get it. It must be to some customers. I usually get notifications right the day they start shipping. This time I have not been notified for the X-Men books yet, but, as I said, it seems the amount of orders is getting out of hand. I also don't like that they do not combine shipping and it is even more of a pain for us who buy internationally and have to pay about $20 each time a book is released. Hope they can work on that, as I don't like to pay resellers unless necessary.
  9. I never really had any problems and my packages arrive well internationally. I do agree that lately, maybe with the number of orders increasing, their customer service has been impacted. I used to receive a nice long reply every now and then, but now they don't usually reply.
  10. He just got engaged and I agree... he can spend his earning in whichever way he likes to. Lately there's been so much hate towards the artist in an appreciation thread.
  11. If you've seen JSC Instagram or FB, I'd say he already has shown some of the cover, including: Colossus, Storm, Old Man Logan and maybe 2 more characters. It looks nice, but $50 is a lot... again.
  12. Jessica Jones - Decomixado Just in case you didn't know, pre-sale is active. I think this will be the best price you'll get before the Con ($25). They were having some issues with their site, but you may go and check.
  13. JSC did not set the bar and he limboed under that bar with ease. Who are these "flippers"? A lot of the early sales are from dealers who either sell online or even have brick and mortar stores. Well if I see an exclusive from any store or even JSC store, and then suddenly pre-sales in ebay with inflated prices, I would assume they are flippers. As for him, I'm a huge fan of his art and try to buy everything he releases, but when I simply can't afford it I don't buyt it. Easy as that.
  14. He is indeed raising his prices and it's getting, at times, hard for [completionist] collectors like me to buy all his work. I hate flippers, but my only option to try and make a stand is not to buy from them. However, I think that if you don't want to buy his stuff anymore, just don't, there's no need to attack the community or the artist. He is making money from his work, which is all we want to do and I don't blame him, even if in some cases, like this Venom cover, i had to pass due to the cost.
