IDW's City fall arc

I'd like to get all the individual issues of the city fall arc that's coming up from the guys at IDW. I would get them myself, but since I don't live in the states, I would have to get all the issues shipped down here individually, and that means spending a great deal of money in unnecessary shipments. My idea is to get someone to grab all the issues as they come out, and then have him/her send the whole bunch down here in a single shipment.

I've already contacted a few online retailers and people on ebay, but they weren't up for it. That's why I'm turning to you guys. Is anyone willing to do this? I can pay for the issues + shipping in advance through paypal, and I'm willing to pay a reasonable fee to whoever wants to do it.

Please let me know if anyone is interested.
Cheers

You don't have to pay in advance; I sell off my individual issues everytime a trade comes out. I buy doubles of every fifth (and sometimes sixth) issue so that I can offer as many consecutive issues at once.

Wow that's awesome! I'll also get the trade, but I can get that from amazon later on. As far as the payment goes, I'd actually prefer to do it in advance. My country's economy is pretty sh*tty and there is no telling how much the value of the US dollar will skyrocket in the next few months. Please PM me so we can work through the details

I see. Well, the problem with that is, I only accept personal payments for this sort of thing, so if something were to happen to me, you'd be sh!t out of luck.

I have two sets of SHOTFC, do you happen to need those by any chance? I've had no luck selling either set. One is made up of A covers, the other is made up of the RE Hastings cover (#1) and three RI covers (2-4). I've already had one buyer back out and it looks like I'm not going to hear back from the other.

Don't worry, I know the risks and I'm willing to take them. As far as the SHOTFC issues you mentioned go, I'll take the ones with the regular covers off your hands. I'd also love to get the RI cover of #3 that Ross made, but I don't think you'd be willing to depart from it without me buying the whole set. Also, if you have an extra copy of #21 laying about, you can add it to the list (:

I had an extra copy of #21 but it is gone now.

Sure, I'll sell you my A covers-- if you'd like, I can sell you my #21 and just order another copy or two off of eBay. Let me know. I'll have my copies of CityFall soon, so we can do six books to start out with and see how that works, okay?

Edit: If I still have those books when the trade comes out (and I probably will), I will gladly sell you the Ross Campbell cover and just order another one...or I'll just sell them incomplete and let the buyer worry about filling in the gap. Thanks again for your interest!

Sounds like a plan. I wanted #21 so I'd had the full set of eight issues that will be covered in the next two trades, but I'm getting those anyway so it's not really high priority. If you feel like letting go of it, I'll take it but if it's too much of a hassle don't worry, since I'm mainly interested in Santolouco's work. Also, keep me posted about the Ross Campbell's cover situation since I'm really interested in acquiring it

Btw, do you know how much it costs to ship things down here? (For reference my PC is 1704)

I don't, but PM me and we'll work out the details. My estimates are usually pretty close but I can always refund you if I overcharge. It's no trouble to order another copy as soon as you've paid me for everything.

Customs form has been filled out. You're a great buyer, look forward to doing business with you again.
