It sold in 1 day. The seller most likely could have gotten more for it so I don't think this counts as the price dropping. It's not like they listed it for $ 1000.00 and it went off without a bid, then relisted at $ 650.00 We won't really know the going price until a few sellers list them without a...

I would simply put it up on Ebay and await the bids :thumb:

JR JR stuff sells fairly briskly, so i'd hypothesize the price round $200.00??? perhaps more.

The Omac Project: I'm not a big DC guy, but it's good stuff!

Not bad at all, I never owned the Kirby Omac books, but read a few through the years. The Omac "Opus" in my opinion, was the John Byrne 4-book series from the early 90's :thumb: awesome read, and one of the last TRUE John Byrne works of art that is worth the effort :roll: This present tale...

Two key elements in this discussion are: quality of production and print run. Take any book from the 1990s other publishers, and with few exceptions, there are hundreds of thousands of copies available, with decades of printing experience under the belt of the publisher. Even Dark Horse had already...

I don't think there's any question about the FF3. The FF10, though, I'm not convinced. Not that I need to be. Someone has something seriously high-tech doing trimming.

Actually, I don't think it's the same book :think:

VERY similar in various specifics, but I personally believe they are two different copies.
