Pretty sure that was the 1:50 variety, especially considering that each shop can only get 1 of the 1:500

But if they got 25 covers, then they probably didn't qualify for the 1:50 cover...

Pretty sure he was just talking about standard covers.

I scored my copy at a sweet best offer price ;)

Still wish I didn't fall asleep during DBS's Divinity sketch auction kicking myself still.

My copy is DBS' copy. I wanted it but I can't justify that much cash. Glad it went to a friend and fellow board member.

My local had 25 regular copies
Which made me wonder
They like Valiant but it doesn't sell more than 1-2 copies

Also i bought a copy from golden apple con
They have two at least. One still for sale

If you order 500 copies
Sell the 1:500
Return the majority of the 500 copies
Isn't that all profit? If you return those copies
Do you have to return the 1:500?

I'm just sorry I didn't buy the ninjak 25 frison
Midtown had. Somebody got a great book.
The ninjak 26 lotay variant will be an even better book

That was to be expected! It was the safest way to score a brushed metal for a good price.

Woa, just pulled the trigger on one of those books!

Purchased from Geoffery's comics Hi De Ho

Very reasonable, anyone ever shop there before? Guess they are L.A.'s oldest comic shop. They gotta have some serious books in there!

I pulled the trigger as well, as much as I fought it. I snagged the Austinbooks one.

So I'm guessing $500-$600 will be our bottom and a bunch should disappear this weekend as people don't want to get left out. I would imagine any store that intended on selling it quickly, will have already put it out there by now.

Looks like that Destroyer3 is trying to put a little something together. Ebay has had a run of books sell for $600, he's still the cheapest, and could be the next one off the board.

Real curious about the auctions, there are 4. Two sitting around $400, and the other two are at $499.
