General omnibus & hardcover discussion vol. II

[lvizzz]

I'm about to cancel my pre order for Infinity Gauntlet boxset, don't think it's for me; secured my copy for 235 quid but if somebody in UK is willing to pay, I would keep it and change delivery address. If I don't get response here I would inform FB group in a day or two.

thanks! I would say it's in VGC and was £70 so all in all it's fine but got another hc from the same seller last week that was much lighter and even in a bubblewrap bag it didn't get damaged at all so can't help but think I could have got a Like new UXF omnibus for the same money.
Still, it was advertised as VGC so I can't complain.
The seller is Medimops btw (aka momox) and they tend to have some really good deals but it's kinda risky because of the packaging.

That is odd. I buy from them all the time and while their packaging is by no means great, I've never received anything from them in a jiffy bag. They always use thick cardboard wrap-arounds similar to those that European Amazon uses as well. Perhaps it is a more cost-effective type of packaging if they send something abroad?

I picked up the Secret War OHC from Momox several years ago. I think it came in a cardboard wrap but I can't remember for the life of me. I managed to get it for under cover and it was also marked as VG. A couple of corners were very slightly crushed.

I just put up my first comic shelf yesterday and I decided to put the Remender Oversized in last :/ ...had to reshuffle the shelves a bit.

I did the same thing- looks silly, but who cares

Great book. And that what stop's me from selling it with Grampa sketch on frontcover. I keep telling myself "c'mon, you bought it for like 80$ and now you can raise few hundreds", but story and art hook me up every time i take it from shelf.

well that's 2 out of 2 in jiffy for me unfortunately. I doubt the cardboard is much heavier or puts the package in a different price category. But with the first package which was the Godzilla Half century war ohc I really didn't mind the packaging because the book cost me less than £5

Glad to see that you still get to read, even with the little one :P

Also, what do you think of those awful non-matching Knightfall jackets?

[Balakin]

Invincible!!! Yeah! Such a good series. Also that Asgard cover looks really nice!
