    Amazon changed the release date to July on my pre-order. It's still on Diamond's tentative list for next week, so it's all sorts of weird right now

    Maybe they're adding additional material? I can't imagine what though.

    I'm sure they'll find something to raise the price by $25 ...

    That's why I locked in an Amazon pre-order when Marvel thought it'd only be 15 issues instead of 22!

Last year I bought two omnibi from FP in order to get the direct market cover, and the prices were around 20 € higher without the shipping charges, that were also very high

    In my case I'm still buying on Amazon, but since December I'm having problems with Amazon Germany (that was the cheapest but now they don't send to Spain) and France (that didn't send the she hulk by slott omnibus and looks like they're not going to do it). The biggest success I've had is with Amazon.com, but it takes really long for products to arrive

    About hit and miss with Amazon, this is the first time they are failing me in many years that I've been buying my collected editions from them, and I guess it's because of covid. I've bought hundreds of volumes in the last years from them
    There a few options to pre-order from EU-Shops:

    archonia.com from belgium
    cheap-comics.com from the netherlands (don't know if they do pre-orders, but you can buy on release day or shortly after)
    waltscomicshop.com from germany (told me in a facebook-chat, that they will soon offer non-dm-variants for pre-order for 70-75 eurocents/dollar, now they are around 80-85)

    I will never buy from Amazon again. Was very tempted by some cheap offers on Amazon.es, but it was just a pain because of damages and returns and hassle... no, thank you.

    Or just ask your local comic store if he can make you a deal for pre-ordering more expensive Omnis.

    Do we know that the "bad batch" of Silver Surfer Omnis is finished (the ones with the misprints)? The did the reprint and kept the same ISBN, that's why I was afraid of ordering it.

    I’m waiting for the inevitable Epic Collection instead now.

    I don't know but I think CGN is usually good at getting back to people when they have questions, might be worth a try. I'm thinking I may and see if IST will still give me a refund, mine has been sealed while I decided what to do about it.

    I had to approve the XOS HC delay on Amazon. Says the release date is March 23rd now. Price is still $54 for me. I’d love it if they added the XOS handbook to the HC...

    I wonder if the FCBD issue will be included with the alternative dialogue

    You're a star Bob! I look forward to seeing Denny O'Neill's run in an Epic Collection or better still Omnibus in upcoming Marvel solicitations

    Omar announced an X-Men Inferno Prologue Omnibus yesterday (just in case anyone missed it). Comes in September.

    Contents seems to be the same (at least he did not mention any differences) and there will be 2 covers.

    Contents being the same I'm not upgrading just for the word Omnibus on the spine.
