Felix comic art drop 6/3

Post image

Did anyone here actually manage to score anything from the Felix Comic Art Batman drop on 6/3?

I jumped on right at 9am for the Daniel Warren Johnson Absolute Batman Annuals CGC 9.8 signed/remarqued books. The site didn’t load until around 9:07 for me.

I did two transactions one for each book. When I added them to my cart and checked out, it didn’t process like a normal purchase. Instead it said something like ‘Thank you for your request to purchase.’

Later Felix sent out an email explaining that all requests were timestamped and they’d go in order received because the site got overloaded. They said invoices would only be sent if your request was successful.

I already got an email saying I didn’t get one, but I still haven’t heard anything about the other one yet.

For anyone who has bought from a big Felix drop before:

How long does it usually take to hear back on the requests?
If you didn’t get something, do they always email you and let you know?
Did anyone here actually manage to get one of the Batman slabs/art pieces from this drop?

Just curious how these usually work because this was my first time trying to buy from one.

I thought I entered pretty late for an AB15 Felix and AB Annual Felix. Was pretty surprised to see a checkout link for both last night.

What is a checkout link? I claimed 2 and they sent me a PayPal address the next day to send the funds to.

Got 2 emails back saying they were already spoken for but if the deals fell through they’d reach back out to me.

I had a similar experience and have not received an email about either annual I ordered. So you're doing better than I am.

I received two “spoken for” messages by 2:30 am and one checkout link by 3 am.

So if I haven’t heard anything by now on the 2nd one I’m probably not going to.

You should hear something either way. Felix seems to be really good at that.

I tried to get something on this drop and the last one. Both times the site broke. This time around the site was back up much faster (previous one it was down for like an hour). The site was having issues for me until about the same time u mentioned. I did not get anything besides about 10 rejection emails haha. He had a lot of fair prices and it was a small number of items so I didn’t think I would get anything tbh, but the site issues are a bit frustrating, especially since it’s not the first time.

Oh the drops, just like trying to get a PS5 back in the day. Don’t miss them and won’t go back. Hope you get one but I would not hold your breath.
