John91C Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 has the RRP Cover been shown yet?

Tuff Ghost Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) After what happened with Nowhere Men I'm going to assume people will have 0 patience and start a bidding war on the first copy or snap up the BIN's at whatever price. Maybe some cheap BIN's pop-up but if someone post's one with a crazy price and someone buy's it then it kind of sets the bar for all the other people listing their auctions. I guess this all depends what the print run is on the RRP as well. Edited March 28, 2013 by Tuff Ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mashed Potatoes-migration Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I really do feel this was the strongest book since Saga. My only complaint getting back into moderns recently, is that now I have to wait till April for issue #2. Then again, I was always a big fan of the *seriel* monthly books. Stephen King tried to make them popular again with "The Green Mile", releasing one a month for 6 consecutive months. I guess it's a lot of fun having to wait for the story to continue. I agree. Top three new books in the last thirteen months are Saga, Hawkeye and East of West. Strike that. These aren't just the best three new books, they are the best new books period IMO.

Dannyboy0076-migration Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Looks like Death on the cover. I'll say 750 on the RRP print run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarfa Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 That was the cover I was hoping for to be the regular cover damnit. And the Forbidden Planet cover has grown on me sinceI finished the book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mashed Potatoes-migration Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Here is another glowing review. This one is saying the magic words of "top ten" of the year. http://screeninvasion.com/2013/03/east-of-west-review/ Only clunker of a review so far is IGN which gave it 8 out of 10. It is like saying a Ferarri is just a pretty good car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mg1902 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 But he has a sheriff's badge, robo-hound and hovercraft... And is wearing black. Since the official first cover was announced I assumed that this was just concept art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBT Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 After what happened with Nowhere Men I'm going to assume people will have 0 patience and start a bidding war on the first copy or snap up the BIN's at whatever price. Maybe some cheap BIN's pop-up but if someone post's one with a crazy price and someone buy's it then it kind of sets the bar for all the other people listing their auctions. I guess this all depends what the print run is on the RRP as well. I was screaming at people that day in the thread not to overpay, and i am sure i will be doing it with this one as well. Anyone who sells you a "new normal", its "different this time", etc type line, is wishful thinking. You CAN compare moderns to each other so peg it, figure out your price, and if you cant get it for that, dont buy. It would fall in the category of: -big name creative team -no tv show/movie -currently hot That puts it in the Revival/NWM/SAGA path. NWM imo is overbought on its variants. If raw Revival and ToT 500 print run books go for around $120-$150, that is where this one should eventually rest if it does comparably well (and where nowhere men should fall to as well, if it hasnt already, i dont follow it). ToT with strong TV potential would be undervalued of the group imo. Revival stabilizing after having fallen, on a bit of an uptick. NWM, probably declining after being the it book. If you can get the RRP for $80-$100 pull the trigger for sure. If you can get it from a DRE/JJ/Branget type guy in NM+ or better, $100-$150 is reasonable($120 probably the sweet spot) If you are paying more than $150 for it raw, you are overpaying. SLAB the book yourself, or get a JJ/DRE type to get you it in 9.8 pre-sale. If the price is over $250 ($225 probably the sweet spot) it will have been driven there by foolish people, and stick to the raws, slab it yourself. $300 seems to be the magic RRP number, to break that sustainably you need something special. If you pay $300, do it to own, not to sell. If you pay over $300 for it, well, good luck with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
