UnboxingTreasures Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 weren't we talking about that on Wednesday? We were, I didn't realize the cover had already been sold... I hope the pages from issue #1 that I spoke to Rob about are still around when I get to San Diego to meet him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastballspecial Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I am glad I dont play that slab game with new issues. Its too risky. I prefer to make my $5-15 and get out. I know there is alot of cash to be made on the slabs, but getting caught holding the bag sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mishu2nite-migration Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Has issue 1 2nd print and issue 2 died down? My comic shop still has them. These were pretty much in demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultra Ambient Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I would've thought that after the reprint in the Walking dead issue is released it may attract new readers and start a new wave of inflated prices. Should be interesting to see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-DONIS Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 wasn't the print run for #1 2nd 1/3 less than the 1st print? In theary, would that make the 2nd rare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mschmidt Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 wasn't the print run for #1 2nd 1/3 less than the 1st print? In theary, would that make the 2nd rare? Yep, you've mentioned that a couple of times already in this thread In the vast majority of cases, when it comes to later printings, rare (eg. lower print run) does not equal desirable. Feel free to bring up the Batman 608 2nd print again, but that's the exception, not the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50 Cent #II (1st) Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 wasn't the print run for #1 2nd 1/3 less than the 1st print? In theary, would that make the 2nd rare? Yep, you've mentioned that a couple of times already in this thread In the vast majority of cases, when it comes to later printings, rare (eg. lower print run) does not equal desirable. Feel free to bring up the Batman 608 2nd print again, but that's the exception, not the rule. Which is why you both should know it was 1/2 (6,000 vs. 3,000, #2 was the 9,000).
