Was just about to post the same thing - it's listed on Lone Star's own site as a consignment item so they had nothing to do with the price.

mycomicshop Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Yeah, consignors can set whatever price they want, and as was pointed out, that Saga #2 is a consignment. Maybe I ought to update our eBay item layout to indicate which items are consignments to try to avoid this kind of confusion. I just have to word it in a way that doesn't cause more problems and questions ("Consignment? Does that mean you don't have it in hand? Who graded it?" etc.) If anybody sees a price on a book of ours (non-consignment) that seems stuck higher than where the market's at, you're welcome to PM me about it. If I agree with you, we may adjust it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought these from him as well, for my Fatale set I am building, so that might have sped up my sagas coming through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raybowles Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) Guys I live in Southern California and I went to 5 different LCS yesterday. I did not go there to purchase any SAGA but I did look to see if they had any back issues for sale and here are the results(I will only discuss first prints): Not one of the five stores had a #1 or #2. Only 1 store had a #3. They were $15 each and were in NM condition. Not one store had a #4. 2 stores had a #5. All were VF/NM, the typical condition you see new issues on the display counter. 2 stores had a #6. All were VF/NM, see above. 3 stores had #7 and #8. Conditions ranged from VF/NM to NM. I could not find one copy that had a chance at 9.8. I also called two other stores and both had no SAGA back issues. BOTTOM LINE: At least in my area there is very little SAGA back issues available for sale. Edited January 24, 2013 by raybowles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm from the eastside in L.A. and my spots have back issues of saga going back to issue 3. They don't have issue #4 which I think is one of the hardest issues to get since I never see them at any other comic stores I go to in L.A.

jreezy Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 thats because issue four is amazing! It is one of my favorite covers. I am hoping I can track one down for cover since I need one for my second set. Looking grim by each passing day though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
