Looks like it has a little shelf wear and a small crease on the bottom right corner.

was there a warehouse find?

Why so many all of the sudden?

Maybe he saw what the last one went for and decided to dig his copy out.

It's only two copies. Not like canvascutie or whoever it was and the long box of XO 1/2 golds.

That would make me look silly. But I wouldn't mind too much. Right now, I still think it's coincidence. Even three in a week is normal. Would be more strange if they showed up exactly one every 10 days.

It just seems that when I was looking for mine I saw maybe one a month or so. I really don't remember the last time there were this many listed.

It's good for those that want a copy.

No argument there, maybe it'll save someone the long search I had!

The tricky part is finding one without shelf wear.

Most of the shops around here don't even bother to bag and board the trades. Years of people moving them around to look at other books adds up to quite a bit of damage.

Interestingly, there is yet another pred v. magnus tpb on ebay. This one is CGC 9.4 with a reserve. Wonder what the reserve is and if it will hit it?

This is just a case of word getting around on this book. Rising prices will scare up books. Took much longer than I expected - I think this book is actually uncommon/rare.

I agree...thought I would have something more profound to add, but I got nothin'...

i too agree-the numbers on this book are way higher than the really tough ones-i've always been perplexed as to why this one remains difficult to find...

Because the unopened boxes Dark Horse has lying around haven't been found yet....
