Rex Mundi and a bunch of other comics not available on Amazon
The comics "available from these sellers" include titles from Marvel and Dark Horse, at the very least. WTF? Was there some kind of cock-up with Diamond?
Does Diamond even distribute trade paperbacks to Amazon? I really ought to know things like this...
Errr ... ?

Yessir, this is the fallout from a glitch over the weekend. As of Sunday morning, a whole bunch of expensive Marvel HC books (and some others) were priced $8.54-$15, and of course, many were ordered.
Then, many orders were cancelled (with, and sometimes withOUT any notice).
Here’s a follow-up story:

Ahhh, thanks for the intel! I was hoping someone better informed than me would enlighten my ignorance. And you have.

Finally, something we can’t blame on Diamond!

Actually it looks like it was a Diamond screwup. Barnes and noble had some similar problems too.

Oh, Diamond! I’d make a snarky comment, but I don’t want to get in trouble…
AKtually, in all seriousness, everyone I’ve ever dealt with at Big D has been really nice. Mistakes can happen to anyone!
