copy and pasted from the auction
THIS COMIC BOOK HAS NO COVER PRICE BECAUSE IT WAS A FREE GIVEAWAY COMIC THAT YOU COULD ONLY GET WHEN YOU BOUGHT valiants FIRST GRAFFIC NOVEL. LIMITED RED VARIANT LOGO!!!! it was bagged with the trade grafic novel. that was the only way to get it. that is why it had such a low print run. origin issue.
I dont understand the auction though. Its unclear if its from the graffic novel, or the grafic novel. If it was the graffic novel variant, i would hit that BIN right away. Still no responce from the seller if its a graffic or grafic variant though :(

Later in the paragraph it is "grafic" give him props for consistent inconsistency. It should have been bagged with a spell-checker.

Well if you dont know any better it makes no difference i guess.

I know so many people who buy online who have walked past my store/stall for the last ten years. They think as the start price is better they dont need me.

Of course once they take postage into account they pay the same or more. Then theres simple stuff like informative conversation too and general comic land chit chat, but if they think they are better off i guess thats up to them.

Conversation is definately under rated. I like to have a memory of where I got my book and who it was from. It makes it all more fun.
