the authority Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) I agree, it would be a lot easier on me and most everybody else if the companies/creators kept it simple. I can't help myself. I buy the 1st, 2nd, 87th prints, FP, Ghost or whatever. On this book, I still think the 1st print is the one to buy and they are somehow still out there. I think the huge number of Jupiter's Legacy will negatively impact at least numbers 1 and 2 even if the story ends up being great, which I hope it is.

ebtorres Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I'm trying to locate one but I still haven't seen one listed other than the guy who had the 5 signed issues on ebay. I wonder how he managed to get that book ? I never saw that This was it, although I never reached out to the guy on account that they were signed: http://www.ebay.com/itm/EAST-OF-WEST-1-SIGNED-SET-OF-5-INCLUDING-STORE-VARIANTS-AND-2ND-PTNG-/230970053653?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item35c6e35415&nma=true&si=i4fEGlJ1UYYbg9yNZWHWohXmik0%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 The rest of the RRP's are still m.i.a., I wonder why? I also wonder how this guy already had one so soon? :shrug: I have a feeling that outta the gate these are gonna be HOT and priced HIGH! I was thinking I should wait out the first wave, but then again, I might end up missing out like with the Saga 1 RRP variant, which I never got. Decisions, decisions... I was willing to go around $100 - $125 and the longer this thing goes, the less chance I can see getting anywhere close to that. That's exactly what I was/am thinking... We'll see what occurs when they finally start popping up, but my guess is that supply won't be able to meet demand initially, and a lot of us will be competing against each other in bidding wars on feebay. Prices will soar on the first few posted copies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have overpaid to be early in the past and don't want to do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragunov Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Is it just me, or does anybody else got kinda "deformed" staples in issue #2 (middle of the book)? I got 4 copies and all are weirdly bended. Doesn't look good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erndog Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 (edited) At Ottawa Comic con this past weekend, every single dealer in the room had #1 at $15. I grabbed 5 for $45 total (probably all 9.6/9.8 candidates) and the FP variant. Couldn't find a Ghost variant or RRP (obviously) anywhere. Hot book.
