Marvel Omnibus/Oversized Hardcover Discussion Part IV

Mine was only 20% too.

Same here.

So I ordered the like new X-Men X-Cutioner's Song from Amazon marketplace and now it is in the Bargain section on Amazon for $20. Just my luck. My book should be here today. Can't wait to read it.

Thanks for the heads up. Ordered mine!

How is this storyline? I only read a few of the issue when it came out.

The BN.com code for the 20% is YBUF8W94TK8U7. I guess the 30 and 50 are gone forever...

On the bright side my UTTOSM shipped yesterday from them (43.21).

That's a unique one time use code you gave out, so hopefully you weren't planning on using it.

At any rate there are 20% off non-member coupons floating around on a regular basis including right now, so using 15% off is a waste of money. 30%+ off coupon codes would be your best bet if you're lucky enough to be randomly emailed one.

My brother forwards me his, it was for 15%. It was 15% last time. Are they punishing me for using it each time at 15% and not bothering to wait for 20% or is it all random?

Also, not sure if it's multi-use but last time I printed it out and took it in-store they let me use it multiple times. But I guess that's your point if it's just 15-20% and they're not hading out any 30%+?

It is suposed to be random what percentage off you get. Off course the majority of codes will be for 10%, 15% and 20% off. A lot of people on Slick Deals are also mentioning how they order from B&N but do not get the emails for coupons. For the people that did get the email there are some that have posted 30% and 50% off codes but they are now one time use codes.

If it is a six digit code it can be used more than once at a store. If it is a 13 digit code it can only be used once. A few weeks ago there was a 15% code for stores and it was a 6 digit code.

So it is still possible that B&N might have a generic store coupon for 20% or maybe even 25% (6 digit code) but the days of 30% or higher coupons will now be one time use only.

Still a 20% or 25% off code on a Omibus with 48% off is a nice deal. Just need to play the shipping game in the United States and the international people stay far far away from it.

Yeah. my 15%-er is a 13-digit code, but when I enter it on the site it converts to a 6 digit, does that mean I can just use & re-use the 6 digit version?

At any rate there are 20% off non-member coupons floating around on a regular basis including right now, so using 15% off is a waste of money.

Omni, mentioned a live-20% coupon still floating around, and perhaps I just suck at google but the one I found I couldn't use because I had already used it at that billing address.

I've been spoiled with last year's 30 and 50%. I only buy preorders from BN. But USM and Secret Avengers are 67.95 right now. Calculate the 20% and you get 54.36 + Tax.

I'm going to hold out and see what happens.

From BN I still have Fatal Attractions coming 43.65/ Ultimate Avengers 32.74

Surprised the prices have not come down to match Amazon.

Yeah...that was a fun time going store to store and getting titles for $25 to $30 plus tax

Are you my long lost twin? I still have those as well plus Teen Titans Vol 2 and the highly regarded Avengers: The Crossing.

As I mentioned in a previous post, being a college student living in a dorm, I have very limited space for my collection. And I can't really leave my stuff at home because my brothers suck. As my collection grows, it'll be hard to move it to and from school every year. So for the past few weeks I've been trying to figure out what I'm going to do about it. And just now it finally hit me. A locking cabinet.

So my question is, do any of you guys know a good wooden cabinet that would be suitable for storing my OHCs and omnis?

Its from the pinnacle of my collecting days, so I looked back on it more fondly than I probably should. Art is solid (Kubert, Capullo, Jae Lee), Storytelling is typical over the top 90's style. Cable has more guns and utility belts on then ever in history, so take what you want from that.

I doubt it but you could try.....Slick Deals says no go with that.

Try codes T3C3B4U or U7K4X3B

I was pretty young at the time and just getting into comics, so I'll probably see it with the same eyes. Maybe I'll give it a shot.

I buy with the intention of reading, I just read slower than I buy because I'm always afraid that the boo I want will go OOP so the queue of books to read always gets bigger because I rush the purchase out of fear that I wont be able to buy it in the future. I'd never buy a book I had no intention of reading.

Of course I also have much less books than most posters here. 14 omniboo and just over 50 OHCs.

Yeah, the OOP fear for me too... Plus shipping and price rises - I'm in Australia and once Amazon figures out the book doesn't weigh a standard 1lb, they put a premium on shipping lol.

[TamTam79]

It is...(10 char)

Yeah, now. But it wasn't when I posted that.

[Jimbits76]

Did I miss something? A Howard The Duck Omnibus on Amazon UK Marketplace for over a thousand pounds. I saw one in Waterstones for forty quid last January but my wife said I'd spent too much money of comics to buy more books about "a stupid duck"!

Why is this so high?
