Wow! In Stock Trades

We have found this great new site. In Stock Trades! This place is great. I really love comics but it is really hard to keep up our habit with comic prices soring to great heights. It is also equally hard to decide if we are going to get the comic book or the graphic novels. You usally save a little money $5 to $10 dollars. But at this website you can save up to 35% off and if you buy more than $50 the shipping and handling is FREE! Can you believe it. We thought oh this is a great deal but I bet the books will come in damaged. Well we got our comics in yesterday and they were in great condition. We bought about 5 to 6 books and they can in a cardboard box filled with packing peanuts. They were also indivdually wrapped to protect them. Also on the web site they have comics listed by company and they even have the new company Checker. Who is Checker you might ask. Well they are publishing trades that have never been published as a graphic novel. We got X-Files vol. 1,2 and 3. They are also going to be producing completed Crossgen titles. I am very very very excited about this because you will be able to have the complete story of those wonderful issues you always wondered about. Check it out. We are very excited about this company and I can forsee spending lots of money at this site. Now don't get me wrong I love the comic store we frequent but sometimes you just can afford all the titles you really want to buy. It is also good to go to the comic store because you never know what new titles are coming out that you might miss out out if you don't scope out the rows and rows of beautiful glossy images. And who could pass up the comic book store chat. Sometimes you really get the inside scope just by asking the right questions to the right people. The joy of going to the comic store on Wednesdays is sometimes the height of the week. As an educator it is very hard sometimes to get out of the house after working with students that sometimes really do not want to be at school. The comic store ends up being the calm after the storm after the work day. But do try out the In Stock Trading website.
