ok, i know that this is going to start a big debate but i will ask the question anyway. first there are all of the big (and controversial) things that have happened in civil war, the lateness of some of the books, etc. then in the latest newsarama column, joe said this.....
so what if they have pull lists for their 'hard core' customers? what about the non hard core people who got screwed because marvel didn't put out enough copies of a comic that they knew was going to sell like hotcakes? or at least take some away from wizard. and while i don't have a local comic shop, did everyone's get more copies this week because i have read on some boards, some places that didn't get any more copies.
so anyway, i throw that out there for people to talk about.

And for those who didnt get a copy on Wednesday, well there are now copies available everywhere.
Plus, and maybe Im off base here, but dont most stores have pull-lists for their hardcore customers these days? I mean pull lists are kind of like the win-win for both parties - the customer gets guaranteed their favorite books despite the scarcity of the product and the retailer knows that they have a guaranteed sale which is important in a non returnable marketplace.
So, Im kind of perplexed by this one, maybe there are more stores than Im aware of that dont have pull-lists for their customers? But, if you do go to a store that has a pull-list and if you have Cap reserved and if your retailer tells you that they sold it to some one else, well then I say you have an issue with your local retailer that you need to resolve.
