'Bad Idea' question
Forgive me if this is not the right place to ask.
I understand that Eniac has "second print" for for its issues. I was told that if I got a 1st printing that I could not get a second printing of the same issue? is this correct?
Thanks

Re: 'Bad Idea' question
Hmm, I believe there was a "rule" for 1 copy per customer only when it comes to the FIRST PRINTING but anyone could then order as many copies as they liked of the NON-FIRST PRINTING (~ SECOND PRINTING). And 2nd wave partner stores were told they'd only get 5 copies of the FIRST PRINTING anyway. Which is funny (NOT!) because I was initially all-in through a 1st wave store in Ireland, but then I switched to a 2nd wave store in Germany with the result that I didn't get a FIRST PRINTING....although my initial order most likely counted towards the total copies of FIRST PRINTINGS that #BadIdea ordered from the printer.
If what you are being told is true it would certainly be a new rule.
It wouldn't make sense though. You could simply ask friends & family to buy a copy of a NON-FIRST PRINTING for you.

Re: 'Bad Idea' question
I was quite excited when Bad Idea was first announced but I have not read anything yet and have for the time being given up. I am sure it is a high quality product but too many hoops to go through to get, especially if one does not live in the USA. If I really wanted to put the time and effort in I am sure I could find some on line and pay scalper prices but that seems like too much work to do every month just to get the regular floppies.

Re: 'Bad Idea' question
No this is not correct. Send a tweet to Bad Idea along with the store who told you that and they will clear up any misunderstandingNameless7 wrote: Wed May 26, 2021 7:32 pm Forgive me if this is not the right place to ask.

Re: 'Bad Idea' question
Sounds great!
Sadly I don't do tweeter. Is there not somewhere, approved by Bad Idea, that contains all these rules? I wish Dino would have a post saying "This is what you can/cannot do regarding 'Bad Idea' books.
There is so much confusion that apparently this comic shop I asked is not sure what all the rules are.
Cheers!
