[QUOTE=Rimmer;5064138]100% agree. Some folks bark about them taking so long these days, but we don't know all the factors - perhaps they have let's say 5 workers picking orders, and 3 are out or stayed on unemployment or whatever and now they have 2 vs 5? I'm just making up numbers, but you get the idea. I ordered the Savage Sword of Conan v3 omni and a few trades, that was released like 2+ weeks ago. it just sat there. But honestly, I have so many books to read, I don't need this ASAP. And then 2 days ago I get a fedex email stating they're overnighting it to me (at no cost, as I chose the free option). So it's obvious to me that they felt bad it sat for 2.x weeks and overnighted it to me at extra cost to them. I'm perfectly happy with that. TOW/IST are great, and while these days it might take them 1 week to respond to an email, which is kind of ridiculous, at the end of the day, the answer it, they do what you ask, answer what you ask, and it's all good. I have no issues.[/QUOTE]
Apparently they are super busy since the pandemic started. People are buying WAAAAY more books now because they just sit home all day, isolating and often doesn't have anything better to do but to browse and buy books, but IST only has the same amount of employees as before.
And Emily is getting hundreds of emails a day.

[QUOTE=Raffi Ol D'Arcy;5064994]Btw, good move picking up the last 2 Omnibuses as they will at some point fetch crazy prices if they're not reprinted.[/QUOTE]
That is what I am thinking. I have a feeling that they will probably be reprinting the second and third Omnibus in the series fairly “quickly” behind the first one... then I see them neglecting the final two reprints for probably quite a long time.
Now I just need an Annihilation Conquest reprint announcement... was looking to buy that after Annihilation reprint and it was 125$ on eBay and I said no I will wait for the inevitable reprint... but now it is going for closer to 300...
IĀ’m hoping that one will come maybe as a late announcement for this Christmas season like Annihilation did last Christmas. But with covid that is probably not happening. Always next year I guess...

My UXM 1 reprint came in the mail today. Nicer quality than other omnibus they have been putting out recently. Binding looks great.
-
I'll be rebuying vol. 3 since I sold mine off previously. I take it vol. 4 and the Claremont/Lee reprints got pushed to next year? Which I'm fine with considering I'll get Excalibur, NM, and UXM 3 omnis all this year.

Does anyone know what exactly the misprints are in the Surfer omni reprint?
Would IST / ToW accept returns in this case?
-
Missing half page from page 496, it is duplicate from page 474, you can see it in 10:32 and 11:03

and there are two pages switched.

Two swapped pages and missing panels. I hadn't opened mine and just sold it for what I paid on eBay. I don't know if IST does returns and they're so swamped now I didn't want to wait. Supposed to be a reprint in October to correct.
There's a good thread about it [URL="https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/marvelmasterworksfansite/silver-surfer-omnibus-major-production-errors-3-of-t36197-s160.html"]here[/URL].

I ended up returning mine too, it was still sealed (I was about to unseal it so the timing for discovering this was perfect). I made a loss of about $20 which was a bummer, but it's still preferable to having a flawed copy of what is otherwise a great classic book imo.

I had a BPRD book replaced by IST a while back because of a misprint.IST emailed me about it,and it was sent in another order.It would be nice if that was the case for SS.
