it's official Valiant

Post by p-s manowar »

Its official after 25yrs of buying marvel comics (30-35 titles a month) I told my lcs to cancel all marvel titles in flavor of Valiant variants (already buying the 9 monthly). He was shocked and upset, he doesn't purchase many valiant books 5 each title so wasn't happy when I wanted the 1in 20 or 1in 25, was told to buy it less where. Now valiant I need more monthlys to keep me busy :) any one know where to buy the variants at a decent price.

DCBS is all advanced orders. I'd check with Paradise about back issue variants first. Mile High usually has almost everything, but I don't love doing business with them.

[except for the part about being told to go elsewhere with your money... looks like you were spending upwards of $120 a month on Marvel, there. The guy would rather lose your $ than take a chance on extra copies of Valiants? :| ]

You should check out our auctions, we have a lot of valiant variants on ebay. Do not buy there, just check them out and send me a pm with a list, I will prob. do better, depending on how many you get.

we also do subscriptions for a lot of members here, but at this time I can not promise all variants, too many people already doing it.

You can try DCBS.
But, remember, it's not a guarantee with DCBS that you will get a variant if you order one from them. They also, have the same problem your comic shop has with having to order X number of copies to get the variants. I know I've missed variants (not Valiant variants) in the past because of this.

And here I thought I was the only one to completely drop my Marvel & DC books for Valiant. I really hope they continue for a very long time.

You may also want to talk to ed about subscriptions. His service was far better than my LCS and even with shipping he's cheaper.

Nope! I'm down to one Marvel and two DC, The Walking Dead and everything else is all Valiant :)
