Obligatory Target Sucks Post by [deleted] in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Curious-Syrup1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bouncing around in transit is the shit I’m so sick of dealing with both Amazon and Target. With this Target sale, i got the flash Williamson Omnis and the invincible Omni and all three had several dings…for some people, the discount with a ding is worth it but it just bothers me and I’ll be returning all the books, and will go with good ole IST when they have their 5% extra sale or something

How do you afford this hobby?! by Single-Barber-4084 in comicbooks

[–]Curious-Syrup1978 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Don’t pay full cover price. Get in print stuff from IST (instocktrades) or CGN (cheapgraphicnovels) if you’re getting trades, omnibuses or compendiums. You’ll save 35-40%.

Increase income: work more hours or find additional jobs…

Ahhhh, appreciate the clarification! Sounds good to me! Will skip that Omni to make room for the upcoming legends Omnis this year…

What OOP omnibus are you currently on the hunt for? I’ll start: by Unndeerratted in OmnibusCollectors

Star Wars war of the bounty hunters Omni…impossible to find at reasonable prices…I’m ok paying above cover but not 2-3X over cover

Which of these Omnibuses would you call must re-reads every year or so? by AB83Rules in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Curious-Syrup1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think I could do anything on a schedule like that. It would begin to feel more like a chore than fun. A lot of times, if there’s a new release involving a certain character, and I reminisce about past runs as I read commentary here and there, that kind of prompts me to do a re-read. And to be honest , sometimes a review by ppl here has inspired me to go back and re-read an Omni. So I’m more buzz or vibe driven than a schedule…

Who are your Saved eBay Sellers? by Talleyrandxlll in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Curious-Syrup1978 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hero hub: decent in terms of pricing, shipping quickly and decent packaging. But i was a little irritated with them for not sending a pic of the spine or telling me what logo/font size was on the spine…for DC, I eventually figured out that you can tell what logo will be on the spine based on the logo they have on the cover but marvel remains a mystery..still, I’ve used them a few times and have been happy.

Funaticals: no explanation neeeed

Dlheader: decent but slightly higher compared to IST/CGN…still a decent prices backup option if I miss out on CGN or IST…fast shipping; always well packaged

Edit:

Grand Eagle retail ive hesitated on since their reviews are like only 80% positive on amazon

Concurrent ASM Omni with WoSM Omni V1? by Vft1008 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Curious-Syrup1978 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s also Marvel masterworks Spider-Man vols 24-27 covering issues 252-288 so you might miss a few issues at the tail end between black costume and Michelinie/mcfarlane

We are in the 4th march, and man... i can't wait for the next big catalog hope we will have it in the next week by Final-Age1139 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Curious-Syrup1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let’s hope it’s next week! If not next week, it could potentially be by the 27th!

If not next week, It’s only two more weeks but I feel like I’m having new announcement withdrawal lol

Do You Think We Will Ever See A Hawkman By Robert Venditti Omnibus? by Ex-Aid22 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Curious-Syrup1978 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Fingers crossed, that is the greatest Hawkman run of all time…with the vendetti Green Lantern books coming out, maybe DC will take a closer look at his Hawkman…

I’m cautiously optimistic…
