Our hobby is SO weird sometimes!!! TMNT #95 hit the stands today. It introduces a new female turtle character. I heard about it in a spec group on Facebook earlier today. On a whim, I bought a copy from MCS at cover. It seems that Diamond is all sold out now and eBay prices start at $15 plus shipping. MCS does not have any more listed for sale at the moment. Crazy, man, just CRAAAAAZZZZEEEEEEE!!!!! |

I heard rumors and had already been to my lcs when i heard, and had to get home....went online and saw the only copies on eBay asking $30...sold out everywhere but MCS, so grabbed A & B covers....sold out within minutes after that. So does MCS only limit you to one copy always? This is the second time I’ve ordered from them, both times I wanted a qty greater than 1 and it defaulted back to 1 every attempt I made... |

| @Drogio quite honestly, I buy for my own collection. I've never tried ordering more than a single copy of an issue from MCS. So. I really don't know if MCS limits the number on a regular basis or not. I honestly bought this one because I've always liked the turtles and have often wondered what a female turtle would look like in the TMNT universe. When I heard that the comic was heating up, I figured it was buy one now or never find out. LOL!!! | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Drogio I managed to order one, with a signature and remark by Eastman. Trinity Convention Services had them available, for about 2 minutes earlier today. They only had 10 and they went pretty fast. Now they are saying they can't get any more. Apparently it was a print run of just 750. There will be a second printing, if anyone is interested in that. |

| So, for three years I’ve hounded my LCS for the ri-a covers. He has a close friend that would get them every month. Six months ago he said he would get another ten if I committed to all three covers for 25, not the best deal but naturally I said yes. I couldn’t be more pleased after reading this thread this morning. My wife checked there today ( I and my LCS owner were working on the fourth) and got me another A and B cover. I have 33 dollars wrapped up in five books, I’ve never sold on eBay before but I’m watching a three cover lot already at 162. I gotta say I’m thinking of reaping a little off my reward. | ||

| I feel like if I sell one for 25-35 I pay for all my own. Am I dirty/greedy? I’m just a guy that collects but rarely does an opportunity come along for a guy like me to be in the black for a change. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by HeinzDad I know the feeling!! But you have nothing bad to feel about. Don't let the short time frame throw ya!!! I suspect that if you had held unto a book for 5 years and sold it for a $25 profit that you'd probably think you did a pretty good job!! You can't control what price the market sets on a book nor the speed that it sets it. But in the end, if it truly bothers you, do what feels right with you. Twenty-five dollars isn't worth feeling bad about yourself!!! Just know that I don't see anything unethical about the situation you describe. |

| Here’s the thing... I learn a lot from this forum, I’ve caught my LCS napping quite a few times and I usually tell him before I buy. He gets every title almost and that’s valuable to me so if I learn something I usually pass it along, sometimes if I go in for a rando he’ll even ask “why you lookin for this”, and when I go back his other copies are re priced. After reading this thread this morning I had my wife go in and scalp more copies cuz I know only a few turtles readers n knew he would have them. I feel filthy, he knows my wife and I’m sure he looked them up finally after she left, ooooooooppps. Maybe he should read cbcs forums also, p.s. I got him a triple signed infinity gauntlet a month ago.. | ||

| @HeinzDad Just because you are armed with knowledge doesnt make you a bad guy. The LCS owner is taking your knowledge and making a profit. It's not like you are stealing food out of someone's mouth. The dealer knows and expects to sell books at a certain cost, typically a tad under cover to make money. In theory, if it didnt go up he would have just sold for cover anywsy.... I say sell or dont, but do it with a clear conscience. By the way, gratz for having a sig other that supports your addiction. |
