I used to work for a company called Slackers in Missouri that literally kept a lot of their Comic Book Day and Record Store Day stuff and resold it later on, both through ebay and at their stores. They were some shady fuckers.....

Last year was the first year I ever saw where they didn't let you have one of each if you wanted. I think it was limited to 5 books but only allowing 1 is just nuts. They will have tons sitting around and since they can't sell them what are they going to do?
