So the main sale works like that : "From now until Friday, when you shop on http://idwlimited.com , if you buy 2 or more items the lowest item in your cart is free!"
If someone on the board is only after one item (like me) perhaps we can combine our efforts (i.e. our order). PM me if interested.
ps: the discount seems to work when ordering twice the same item (I'm after Locke & Key red label).
The TMNT idw collection now has a release date of July on amazon.com
The Amazing Spider-Man Newspaper reprint hasnt got an ISBN yet, am I right?
Locke & Key Head games Red Label: now people at IDW know how to produce (and securely ship) collector's book. A new jewell in my collection, easily in the top 5!
http://myabsolutecollection.blogspot...w-limited.html
Thanks for your kind words, I hope to finance retroactively this Locke & Key book by selling some other books from my collection (not the books from my blog of course).
I double my dilemma here. Should I wait for the other volumes of Locke & Key to be published in IDW limited line (which is absolutely not a sure thing) or should I have to buy the other volumes in the series in their "regular" Special Edition form (limited hardcover)? In other words does someone here have secret information about forthcoming IDW limited books?
