| These are coming coming out this week at Fan Expo Canada and already are going for stupid prices on eBay. See people trying to sell them for double or even triple what they being sold for on site. Crazy |

| Well, we will see how this pricing works out. The foils put out for the Metal 3 Mattina variant didn't pick up in price so I am not sure that this one will either. Market will decide by next week I think. | ||

 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

| I ordered one from Trinity with Snider and Jock signatures. Can’t wait to get it, one of my all time favorite Batman covers. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by KatKomics Keep in mind only 100 were released initially (unknown comic books?) leading up to the convention. And you’re not the only one whose thinking of flipping this book. What is the print run? 1000? 3000? If you buy 2, just make sure you pick the best copies you can...if you want to make a profit near or long term, and advertise it as hand picked/defect free. foils are not forgiving when it comes to finger prints and indents. I don’t order foils online because they most likely will be shipped with damage or incur it during shipping. It took me several attempts to get a 9.6 gold foil of Spawn #1. I also hand picked all my Dark Nights Metal foils...never came across anything better than a 9.4 for issue #1...much less one that is 9.8 potential. All my others are 9.8s, including the one shots. But as for the cover, It probably looks outstanding as a foil and the cover will always be a classic...so it’s one of those rare situations I can see it being worth the $30, especially if you have the original and/or you can hand pick your copy. It’d be nice to see them slabbed side by side. |

| @Drogio this is very sound advice I would also love to know the print run. |

Quote:Originally Posted by DJC_II I know. I convinced myself when I saw that unknowncomicbooks had a few back in stock. I have a Tec 880 I had bought new...and decided I needed this with it. I also splurged on the Thanos Legacy Crain variant and Venom First Host Dell otto variant too...after doing so well the past few months not buying variants I seem to be back off the wagon...or is it on the wagon. Forgive me kaptainmyke. My guess is the run is 3000....Seems to be par for these foils. I see a lot of places offering them when I did a search too which leads me to believe they're not "rare" Something about This one, though, it is just different than the other silly reprint foils. I considered having my original signed by jock, but there really isn't s good place on the cover for it...he tends to sign across the mouth which to me takes away from the art. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Drogio Will a 3,000 print run affect that book? Who knows? What is the original print run of Tec 880? Exactly, and what is its current price tag? I guess we all know that, right? |

Quote:Originally Posted by SpiderTim Sorry no!! I had to look on ebay just to see what 880 cover was!! Very sorry to everyone but until recently I was not buying new DC or Marvel. Image, Darkhorse and small press had my $$$ While I'm alienating people..this is probably sacrilege... but when I first saw Del Otto covers (Secret War era) I thought - wow did Alex Ross have a bad day?? |

Quote:Originally Posted by SpiderTim Is this a reprint of Tec 880? I never know with these shop variants and exclusives. Especially when the print run comes in damaged and the go back for more copies...isnt that technically a 2nd print? |

| @Drogio I agree. Any variant not released at the exact same time as the main cover should be labeled a reprint. | ||
