Yes! Thanks, it worked just like you said.
I had three big books I needed to get. Two - Absolute T-Met V. 2, and DD Companion omnibus - came out last week. The third - Green Lantern omnibus v. 3 - was this week. I had planned to just buy them all this week.
When I went to CGN, the discount was 45 percent off for the two from last week and what appeared to be about 40 percent off for GL.
Then there's that pesky shipping fee they charge.
IST had all three books available for 50 percent off - plus no shipping.
I bought the two from last week yesterday and just got the GL one today (with the 2 percent discount).
CGN used to be my go-to, especially after IST moved to Tennessee where they have a 9 percent sales tax (that tax often was more than CGN's shipping).
Now, I find myself just using my parent's mailing address with IST (they live in another state) and saving on the shipping and tax. Plus, the discounts are much, much better than CGN.
I think eventually, the only thing I'm going to use CGN for is its catalogue to tell me what's coming out the next few months.
