2nd one is signed obviously but $40 for a 1:10 variant 2 weeks after release is a good sign this is a keeper for a bit...

[roastedbagel]

Lostpike said they had some of the regular issues left. Just the variants sold out.

 

And I'm sure yours are 8.0's, . I'll be getting my 9.8's back from CGC next week.

 

Who is lostpike? Do we have competition??

[HugeRosen]

I'm regretting only grabbing 2 of these when I did.

[dupont2005]

I probably should have grabbed a nicer copy. Mine's VF-

Didn't expect this comic to catch on like that

[HugeRosen]

I wish I had sent mine in to CGC with the other revival issues but I didn't get them in time. Should have some CGC 9.8's for sale on regular issue and the amazing conventions variant next week.

 

The 1:10 variants will have to wait till next submission.

Well I'm now the proud owner of the 1:10 thanks to feebay. I think I got it at the lowest price moving forward.

[HugeRosen]

There's still some out there for around $25 BIN. People get caught up in these auctions sometimes and prices get crazy.

[A-DONIS]

Guys, according to both of my LCS.. Diamond did sell out, and no rumors of a second printing.

[HugeRosen]

Another Image sellout. I'm sure a second print will come though, no?

[krighton]

Id love no 2nd printing.

[A-DONIS]

Id love no 2nd printing.

 

So would I

 

Make them suffer for not buying the 1st print!

[troydivision1]

Id love no 2nd printing.

+1 (as previously stated)

[HugeRosen]

Id love no 2nd printing.

+1 (as previously stated)

 

+2 But we all know that's very unlikely

[Beige]

So would I Krighton.

I was lucky enough to get 23 #1's and 3 1:10 variants.

Most will be off to CGC shortly.

I hope then my LCS had snagged a couple extra by pure luck...

[HugeRosen]

You send stuff to CGC from Austrailia? That's gotta up the cost per book by a bit!

[roastedbagel]

Tack on an extra 2 months for shipping too. Hope you fast track otherwise you'll be getting a couple more items for Christmas!

[krighton]

Ill probably wait for an ss opp....i have 5 of the 1:10, 3 of the third eye and 3 of the cbldf

Yup - but there are a few obliging boardies who offer a pick-up, pre-screen, pressing service plus transport to CGC..

So theres 20% off the fee as they get that discount.

I send in bulk to keep the postage down.

But yeah - I have to be quite on the ball with purchases as a mistake can be costly.....

 

How much does it cost you guys for each comic at CGC?

I live in FL so shipping there is slightly cheaper but cgc shipping back is standard regardless of where it's going so no savings there. Depends on how many I send in at a time. My last shipment in was 12 comics and came out to about 350 so about $30 per comic. Obviously sending in more would bring it down but i'm not in it to make big $. If I can pick up an extra copy or two and sell it to offset the cost of the copy I keep, then I'm happy.

 

EDIT: This is fast-track cost. I sent some in beginning of July non-fast tracked and i'm regretting it cause I don't think i'll be getting those back till mid-november.
