  1. And please save me the lecture by anybody who says there are people who like raw books.  IF YOUR GOING TO SELL IT ON EBAY AS SOON AS YOU TOUCH IT, WHY WOULD YOU NOT GET IT GRADED WHEN THERE IS A 100% PREMIUM DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO!!!

    I bought one too(1-1000 signed).  I haven’t gotten mine yet. The comic shop is still waiting to get it.  I asked about expedited shipping but when I did they said it wasn’t offered.  I was told 60 days but I don’t know what normal ordering means?  I know shops had to pay 90 bucks for the cheapest option or something like that?

    They all picked the cheapest option to cgc.  Even worse if they got it pressed.  My guy let me layaway the payments so he did regular grade and regular press.  I'll be lucky to see it by June.  Which is fine as long as it comes back a 9.8!!!  There were 5 9.6s on the census.  1 9.4 which I saw sold on ebay and one 9.2 that I ASSUME, that person must have cracked it to sell it raw because I remeber seeing a raw signed copy that had some wear and tear on it.  I personally belive that the ones that have been showing up on ebay raw with the sig are cracked NON 9.8s

    Does anyone know what shipping options were available to comic shops for this book?  My two cents Keanu John wick movies were  awesome.  It would lead me to believe him making this into a movie would be pretty good.

    From my understanding it's a normal ordering process.  However dependant on on the number of copies you ordered gave you access to the different  variant covers.  And there were like 15 of them. The most wanted one was the cover that Keanu signed but you need to buy 1000 copies to get it.   GOD I HOPE THE MOVIE DOESNT SUCK!  I took a chance on the signed copy.  3k in and I got one of each variant including the signed one.  Vin diesel screwed up blood shot!!!  The value of Rai 0 dropped in half after that mess and may have cause a pause in doing any Valiant characters.  :mad:

    Actually never referenced my appearance.  You made an assumption that I was holier than thou, I referenced those that know me and dealt with me on this forum as proof that I am not.  You continue to make assumptions about those you know nothing about as you have made assumptions about this book.  I therefore can only assume that this is the way you are and does not warrant anything further.  Unlike you, I cannot do this all day.     

    You seem to forget or maybe lack the understanding, that's ones words is a personification of ones self.  They reveal more about u than anything else.   I tried the olive branch, now feel free to try the ignore button at your leisure.

    Never said I was troubled nor have I been at talking at length.  In fact your use of bloviating suits you more than me.  Engaging in trolls can be satisfying at times but as this thread shows your not worthy.   

    It's not your length that is the problem so much as your pompous self righteous attitude,  (since you made a point to reference your appearance to others).  BUT....  for the sake of harmony should you say something in the future that I may agree with I'm willing to end this.  Otherwise, feel free, I can do this it all day.

    Not an opinion, it’s fact. Again, based upon the replies on this thread. 

    Again, please refrain from replying and remember your arguing with someone that has the book and agrees with your assessment of the value of the book (the only thing I agree with for those that are following).

    Your definition of a fact is lacking.  If my responses trouble you so much then feel free to hit the ignore button.   It will save you time instead of bloviating.

    Not an accusation, stating facts based upon this thread. 

    Your assumption of me would be incorrect, verified by anyone who knows me or dealt with on this forum.

    Please refrain from replying 

    Opinion is not fact.  YOU can refrain from replying since YOU chimed in.

    Are you implying that I am "holier than thou?  

    I simply provided you with a known possible explanation to your question 

    Says the person that accused me of inciting rhetoric... hm

    Why ask a question that you already have a "plausible explanation" for but to only incite more rhetoric.  The sole reason I did not want to partake.  You seem to have an answer for every question/explanation/comment.  I regret chiming in.  

    How about people not high jacking a thread away from its original intention all to show that they are holier than thou...  add Delta to that comment as well... :preach:

    I did not want to get involved in this rhetoric but it is common practice for the cover artist, writers, etc... to get several "comp" copies of the book....even before distribution.  It is entirely possible that Jonboy received his copies before Keanu.  

    Absolutely possible however they also could have waited to print them since they were based on. Pre orders from shops at a per 1000 clip.  I would assume to keep the royalties to the cover artist in check....  just a PLAUSIBLE explanation...

    Below is the article in its entirety as written by it's author.  Please show us where it says Jonboy received his books after the fact.  :makepoint:

    Jonboy Meyers gets in touch to tell me that he had a few copies of the 1:1000 BRZRKR #1 covers that are not signed by Keanu Reeves but instead are signed by him. He is auctioning them off, with the proceeds going to charity.

    It turns out that Keanu Reeves signed 670 500 copies of them (400 went to retailers) – the majority of the print run. Those not signed by Keanu Reeves are rarer than those that were. But even rarer are the ten not signed by Keanu Reeves but signed by Jonboy Meyers.

    The charities that JonBoy Meyers is raising money for are Hero Initiative, which helps comic book creators with medical and financial help, STOP AAPI HATE, which fight discrimination, violence and racism against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, STAND! For Families Free of Violence that represent those who have suffered from domestic and child abuse and Save the Children, who combat child trafficking.

    The first two for the Hero Initiative and STOP are live on eBay right now, sitting around the $1500. The other two will go live afterwards.

    In comparison, copies of the 670 released versions signed by Keanu Reeves have sold for $2,500 on eBay or just shy of $4,000 CGC 9.8.

    Jonboy Meyers gets in touch to tell me that he had a few copies of the 1:1000 BRZRKR #1 covers that are not signed by Keanu Reeves but instead are signed by him.  NOW YOUR GOING TO TELL ME HE WAS ABLE TO GET THEM BEFORE KEANU??????  :screwy:

    Sometimes it is how we perceive the information in front of us.

    I am not suggesting that this may not have been some sort of maneuver as 503 suggests. Just that we only have so much data available and we all can have varying interpretations of it. 

    Hence the purpose of a public forum... to discuss ideas..  ;)

    The article never said Jonboy received his copies after the fact.  Actually, the article never reported when Jonboy received his copies - it just reported that he had some.  The point is that you again made an assumption that you are trying to present as fact which is just another example of your conjecture.  :makepoint:  Again, good luck to you...

    Splitting hairs to fit your narrative :preach:
