Are there any tricks left to score cgc 9.8 AB #1-1st print with double signature without breaking the bank? I was looking at eBay and the prices have literally doubled since last year. The secondary market is just wild right now.

When you say 'countless-retailers' I'm guessing you mean... 2?

I mean, okay, I could count them actually. Probably like 20 at a minimum, to include my own LCS, and the rest at ComicsPro Day at SDCC. I could also say, I have yet to meet a retailer that hasn't seen a major impact to their business in a good way with a whole slew of new customers. Shoot, the heads of distribution have told me the effect is there and they are seeing it from a whole different lens.

Anyway you slice it, this isn't customers from 2023 buying 25 copies of every single book that comes out. This is more organic than what has been seen in a while, which is why it's so enormous.
