mirage online store still up?

pm5kfan212 · 10-30-2010, 10:15 PM

Does anyone know if the mirage online store still up and taking orders? I need to get a copy of tmnt 29 and 30 but kept putting it off and hopefully I didn't wait to long. I cant find them online anywhere else for a good price, I dont really want to spend $30 for a $10 comic if I can still get it for 10.

haha, I know the website is still up I was just checking if anyone had recently ordered something from them. Now that they are pretty much done I didn't know if anyone was still monitoring it and if they were still taking orders.

*Powder* · 10-30-2010, 10:58 PM

They're still active, man. Things move a little slow over there but they get to ya eventually.

i just ordered something recently and it actually came pretty fast, maybe the demand has slowed a little.

I ordered some comics a month ago, but I haven't received anything yet.

They're active, ya just gotta kinda push them along sometimes. ;) I made an order close to a month ago and hadn't heard word of it being sent, nor received it, so I sent an email asking about it, and it was sent out right away with no reply. Still waiting on it, but it should be here this week.

Katie said she hasn't been working as much lately, which is only Tuesday/Wednesday as it is. As mentioned, be patient.

pm5kfan212 · 10-31-2010, 10:27 PM

cool thanks, im gonna put in an order for vol 4 29 and 30 next payday.

gbhq · 11-01-2010, 06:48 PM

don't expect them to come in perfect condition, i have yet to receive a comic from Mirage that the corners were not bent - it's too bad that they don't package them that well, at the very least they could bag them.

Abnormal Freak · 11-01-2010, 07:15 PM

Adversely, most of my comics and TPBs have come in great shape. :p

I think the site has stated that the books should be considered to be in "Fine" condition, but in my experience, over half have been NM/M (9.

, about a quarter have been NM+ (9.6), and the remainder have been in the NM- to NM range (9.2-9.4). I've yet to receive anything lower than NM-. The books I've purchased have all been from volume 1.

I had just ordered my last batch of comics from them, it was about over 50 issues at once.. I got them 4 and half weeks later.. Just be patient, and she will ship them to you. Remember, its just her working alone now. Hope this helps!

Quick question: what sort of PAYMENT options do they have, and do they accept credit/debit cards? I've been MEANING to order from them, but things have kinda been nuts, so haven't got around to it yet. I have a Walmart Money Card VISA card, so that's why I'm asking.

Thankies in advance.

*Powder* · 11-02-2010, 01:04 PM

I dunno if they use anything outside of paypal in caps lock.

Check is how I pay now. I used to have my debit card on file with her to automatically take out when a new book came out, and for larger orders I paid with credit card. But check will suffice.

Really? Hmmm, good to know that there ARE other options BESIDES PayPal, because I still, to this DAY, don't have that thing figured OUT yet.

As for the check thing, what about money orders? We don't trust banks anymore, so we DON'T have a bank/checking account.

Ah, well, I'll get it figured out. Might try using my card for my FIRST order with them, then go from there.

In ANY event, thankies to everyone for the info. You guys have help me a LOT!

I saw that earlier, glad to see a lot of comics headed into Mirage, good time to pick up pieces we all need!

Abnormal Freak · 11-03-2010, 03:36 PM

I just hope we can all fill in the gaps without some jackass buying up the rare books just to sell them on eBay for double or triple the price. :p
