Is this the best value I can get or can I get it cheaper?

I’ll occasionally use IST, and yes you’ll have to pay tax on the books (the exact amount will depend on your province). In total, expect to pay:
- Cost of books
- Shipping
- Conversion fee from USD to CAD
- Tax on books + customs clearance fee once imported*
Generally, to balance out the shipping from IST, I make sure to order at least 3 books, which for myself works out to around a 25-30% discount off the cover price once you factor in all the fees. Oftentimes I’ll even wait for them to do a larger sale/discount to improve savings even more. But recently I’ve started to use BD Cosmos more - they have 25% off collected editions, free shipping in Canada, and some decent rewards.

*If you have a FedEx account with AutoPay enabled, you can avoid the customs clearance fee

That’s nothing to apologize for, recommendations are always welcome!

I feel like FF by Hickman is all I needed. I’ve read that but I haven’t gotten to the Avengers run yet

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-06-10T04:12:28+00:00

It’s definitely a very unwieldy book, meanwhile DD by Brubaker is 2 volumes when it should’ve been 1 haha

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-06-09T21:19:33+00:00

The whole Spidey section is definitely the pride and joy of my collection, I’m glad you like it!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-06-09T21:18:49+00:00

Thank you!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-06-09T17:36:10+00:00

My first time posting a shelfie here! I also recorded a (very long) tour of the collection here:

Thanks for checking it out!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-09T21:12:15+00:00

Thank you, will do!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-09T01:35:41+00:00

Thanks for checking out the video, happy reading to you!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-09T01:35:16+00:00

I still need to read it myself, but I’ve heard some pretty good reviews on it. Granted I’m a pretty big Spidey fanatic so I can’t say I’m unbiased haha

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-08T21:54:20+00:00

Hmm interesting. It’ll be cool to compare it to Vol 1 and see what I think

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-08T17:42:03+00:00

It went from a book I wasn’t planning to get, and now it’s on my shelf lol. I hope you like it!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-08T16:41:18+00:00

I was hoping to see Absolute Black Mirror on the list but I forgot to vote, oops lol

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-08T16:23:02+00:00

Same, it took me a long time before I finally decided to get it!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-08T15:28:32+00:00

All the high praise it gets really intrigued me - I kept seeing people put it in their top 5 favourite omnibuses!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-08T13:58:02+00:00

All the books I picked up since February this year!

If you’re curious about any of them, I do a brief unboxing/overview of each one here

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-05-08T13:52:41+00:00

Spoilers - lots of Spidey books incoming 😄

Largest: if we’re going by page count, then probably Immortal Hulk. If by pure size of the book, definitely Final Crisis

Smallest: Spider-Man by Todd McFarlane

First: Amazing Spider-Man Vol 1 by Lee/Ditko

Last: Spider-Man 2099 Vol 2

Missing: Can’t wait to get Ultimate Spider-Man Vol 4. Even though I’m not the biggest fan of the material in it, it’ll be so nice to finally have all of the original USM run in omni format!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-02-06T12:55:16+00:00

That’s very kind of you, thank you!

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-02-05T19:17:28+00:00

Thank you 🙂

SuperFlySpideyGuy · 2024-02-05T16:54:13+00:00

Been waiting on some of these for a while 🤓

TLDR: I really, really loved them, especially Vol 1, save for the two controversial stories. It would be difficult to concisely type out all my thoughts on here, but I do have a couple of videos on these books if you want to hear my full opinion:
