When A Comic Falls From $227 To $13 Overnight – Dawn Of X Vol 8 TPB

Published Wed, 09 Jun 2021 11:27:12 -0500

Comic book collectors are a weird sort. No more mysterious than any other collector, but sometimes the fear of missing out gets together with a temporary shortage, and all sense goes out of the window. That seems to be the case with the eighth volume of Dawn Of X, the series of trade paperbacks that has been collecting the entire run of Krakoan X-Men titles that have been running since House Of X. At one point, there was a reduction in the supply of the collection, which saw a price feedback loop raise prices so that copies sold on eBay for over $227 a couple of weeks ago, after 36 bids, and some sold for more. That was two days after copies were quickly selling for $120 or more. But then things started to change. First, sales dropped down to $85, then $57, then $30. What was going on? It turns out that stock was suddenly available, and Amazon was selling copies for half that. I am aware of some folk who saw the disconnect between eBay and Amazon and started selling copies on eBay and, when getting $30 for a copy, just ordered a copy from Amazon and brought them to ship it too.
