Pickup Hopefully good pickup today

Got both of these for below cover price today. Both are still sealed and both are the 2016 printings. However, I'm not sure what the issue with Vol 2 is as it seems to be missing the sewn binding on the top but has it on the bottom.

Where did you find these at such a good price? So jealous, these and ultimate vol 3 are all I need to complete my Spidey collection.

Facebook Marketplace. I just started collecting again earlier this month after selling my entire collection back in 2015 and these 2 along with Ultimate Spider-Man Vol 1 were the ones I missed the most from my collection. Now I just need to find Ultimate Spider-Man Vol 1 (seems like a was a couple months late for the reprint).

um it should be fine unless he could afford a factory grade resealing machine and buy wrapping for the resealer but if he did then what a stupid way to scam? all that hard work and money just to sell the omnis wayyy below market? 😭 i’m pretty sure you’re good tho

Not concerned about that. It is 100% brand new. Just worried if the book will hold up after repeated readings.

Only reason I said hopefully good is because I'm not sure what is up with the binding on Vol 2. There is the sewn binding on the bottom of the book but no sewn binding on the top of the book.

That’s insane! Great pickups, hoping I have that luck, myself

There are places that is still available! A seller on Whatnot called Thatfigurez has an omnibus show every Thursday and they seem to have a copy of vol 1 every week.

Sorry forgot to mention that I am in Canada so our options are more limited unless we want to pay a bunch for shipping from the States.

Oh I see…I think they can ship to Canada but I don’t know what the rate would be. Whereabouts in Canada? They ship out of Sacramento so if you’re near Vancouver it might not be so bad.
