True to form I got the LAST copy in the store today, but I finally got it!
To tell ya the truth I thought I'd missed out for a minute, but then I found it, all by itself waiting patiently for me to pick it up and take it home. Yay!

I thought SLC had one of THE top stores?(Nite Flite? something like that)

I remember the SD Expo (Pre-con trade shows), it was always SLC and Brian Hibb's place in San Fran that were always among the half-dozen everyone held up as the paragons of comic shops.

You don't HAVE to wait 2 weeks. I've recently moved afar from my traditional shop, and rather than make the trip, I picked up an extra copy at the now-local store.

It's soo good you'll want an extra copy anyway.

What? You're kidding! Right? Night Flight one of the paragons? They do not offer a discount for established buyers with holds, they require a deposit from people who do have holds, they regularly do not order the books on your hold list and trying to get a refund from them from a hold that was pre-paid for (but they forgot to order) or a special order for a book that may have been cancelled is as close to impossible as I care to get.

Their back issues are normally set at the high end of the price guides and they are the only store I have ever been in that doesn't have some kind of discount or 'quarter' bin. Books you can normally get 3 or 4 for a buck elsewhere are priced at cover price (if above a dollar originally) or 25 to 50 cents more than cover.

Luckily Dr. Voltz is still around and I can pop in there for the ocassional pre-shipment copy. The last time I went to NF for a book was for that Simpsons Legion parody. They were the only one (we had five shops at that time) who had a copy. And what did I have to pay for a book a week off the shelf that went for $2.50 cover price? $3.00. A 50 cent hike for a book a week old.

Misère! If I don't get it today, I'm reading the spoilers! This is the first time I've resisted - so far.
