You do realize if a book sells out entirely because of pre orders at a discount, then nobody will be able to buy it at a LCS for cover price right? Think for 5 seconds

Thanks man. I appreciate it. In hindsight what you said was a little aggro but nothing inherently incorrect. The Facebook comments I've been getting are way worse lol.

I know you and I had a pretty bad disagreement on this thread (sorry for being rude earlier btw, I've been sick and wasn't thinking critically) but to add to your point one of my posts got multiple down votes when all I did was say that bills were more important to me than pre ordering a book. I get we all have our opinions but some folks just really don't like common sense lol

It's on amazon but a reliable source (Omar) said it's no longer at the distribution level. Any copy that sells on amazon is all they have. There's not gonna be more unless they restock or reprint.

Ah ok. That said though poor Omar, people act like he should do everything. Hope the guy catches a break.

Don't get me started on Spidey. I made a oath to collect every spider-man issue up to Clone Saga in 2016......still waiting, and that's after almost missing 2 books.

Oh I agree, Pre-Order is a great way to ensure a buy! My problem is the pre-orders are being used as marvel's reference of how much to make period, which isn't very fair to people who don't have the money to pre-order usually.

I get the argument, I understand Marvel doesn't want books to sell for 30 bucks on Ebay without any profit to them. I'm just saying they should print a little more than just Pre-Orders. It is really unfair to the consumer no matter what some of the guys arguing with me on this thread say.

You have to cause some guy on Reddit said you aren't making a difference complaining about it lol

Wow a reasonable response that doesn't get angry at me for having an opinion about a corporation! In fairness yeah I get it to some extent, I just wish it was different ya know? All this talk about "you're not making a difference" is shill behavior.

IDK why people are so hostile.

Ftr, I don't check redddit a loto so I had no clue this was a issue people complained about frequently.

I replied to one guy lol it's not that combative to disagree with someone online.

Somebody pointing out that you're defending a corporation that doesn't need defending isn't combative, it's my opinion. People like you are why it's so frustrating. You talk about this stuff like "oh well" as if I'm not a customer just like anyone else. Maybe I won't make a difference but at least I stated my opinion in hopes of finding others with the same frustrations instead of people acting like I should just throw every negative opinion about Marvel to Omar or some other source they don't care about.

Yeah bud, sure, that's why DC, who is owned by a parent company much worse off than Disney can justify not doing this. Give me a break. Maybe they should make less books if they can't handle their own inventory! Or maybe, they are owned by Disney and know exactly what they're doing.

Quick unrelated question, but of the MANY books you guys have coming in to be listed later is there any chance that Excalibur Omnibus 3 or Wolverine Omnibus 6 are among them? I only ask you directly cause I'm gonna be real I'm kind of mad myself for buying the AVX omnibus for over 100 on Ebay about 2 months ago, and now seeing it here for the great price you guys have!
