Re: Order the variants at DCBS?
I ordered 55+ copies of X-O Manowar from my local retailer and got all the variants when doing so. With his discount he gave me it's still cheaper to do this then buy the variants individually from DCBS...

Bump
Was on DCBS today and the Bloodshot 1:50 is listed for $100 and the 1:20 for $50. Already a big leap from what the XO variants were originally listed for.
Does that speak to demand or just an adjustment based on what the XO variants have sold for?

Re: Order the variants at DCBS?
When I placed my order at the beginning of the month, the Bloodshot 1:50 was $50, and the 1:20 was $25. If you bought them at that time (put them in your order) they are still at that price I think.
I think the store saw how much they COULD change for them, and tried to increase the price.
I am curious now that the price has "calmed down" and is in the $75 price range (ironically, exactly what Greg has on the guide) if they will lower the price for the A&A variant. If they charge >$100 for it, I am not going to get it which will make me sad.

Re: Order the variants at DCBS?
That seems a bit crazy. For under $150 you can go to MailOrderComics.com and get 50 issues of Bloodshot #1, 2 1:20s, and 1 1:50.BugsySig wrote:Bump
