@Felix is there going to be any Decorum art available, or is it all digital?
Felix Lu
3:34
@Tom...almost entirely all digital:( But should be getting some art, including covers, from Mike. Stay tuned!
ALG
3:34
@Felix - just out of curiosity, why did the owner of Silver Surfer Black choose to release 16 pages for sale?  No worries if you can't answer.
Felix Lu
3:34
@ALG...he's actually in this chat and you can ask him! Or rather, he can answer!
Satya Chetri
3:34
Yeah @Mikail that was a great pickup. Congratulations!
Tom Franck
3:34
How much of an impact is the fact that you don't have the overhead to travel down to San Diego and set up?  In terms of profit, are home cons much better for you?
Felix Lu
3:35
@Tom...Yes, but that's true for any con. We just do cons to hang out and have fun!
Yo Kuri
3:35
@satya yes would like them to talk tools, time, visual reference, total art geek out on a few key pages. Lol 184 emails...
Ben Huang
3:35
Hey @Satya! Have you gotten sick of that Bastian Blacksad piece yet?  If so, I'd be happy to give it a good home! ;)
Rob Rusch
3:35
Hey @Mikail! And yes, that Bertram piece is incredible
Jason K
3:35
Ian's artist choice were out of this world! So blown away
Ron
3:35
@Felix, would love a re-send of that link. Checking my junk and garbage folders and don't see it!
Felix Lu
3:35
@Ron...OK! Shoot me an e-mail to remind me...
Andy Robbins - Cleangone
3:35
@tom - I was also very interested in this
Cristian C
3:36
if Felix doesn’t mind me answering, I was the owner of the complete issue but then I sold most pages back in order to fund a big purchase, the famous Toth Canary page from Adventure Comics.
Felix Lu
3:36
And Cristian will attest that I pleaded with him not to do it! LOL! But if he didn't, there wouldn't be a Lucky 16. So 16 collectors, at least, thank you, Cristian!
Mikail
3:36
@reba @satya thanks!
Lou L

Between Mondo's drops and SDFC, it feels like con season never left (kinda)
Andy Robbins - Cleangone
3:37
A guy like Albert can make bank at shows, but a lot of dealers don't
Mikail
3:37
Thanks guys!
Chris S
3:37
worth it

@Felix - your server got bogged down a couple of times this week during the drops.  Any thoughts on upgrading your service for faster response times?
Felix Lu
3:38
@ALG...it's BEEN upgraded already! Just for my drops! By Bill Cox of CAF! My site generates the most traffic of any of his network, outside of CAF. I think my site outdraws #2-#5 combined...
Dylan
3:38
For whatever this is worth: the artists repped here that I most would like to get something from (besides the ones I already have gotten stuff from) are Nick Dragotta, Ramon Villalobos, and Ryan Ottley
Satya Chetri
3:38
@Rob it’s so wild. Relevant and funny. I was thinking of reading Vaughan’s Private Eye next.
Andy Robbins - Cleangone
3:38
Hans K, a smaller art dealer, told me he didn't close the books on SD until Sept - sometimes it took that long for deals or interest that started at the show to end up in a sale
Lambo
3:38
@cristian c  nice!!!
Ben Huang
3:38
@Christian That Toth page is dreamy.  I can totally understand the choice.
Lou L
3:38
How often do people sell back pages from complete issues?
Felix Lu
3:38
@Lou...almost never. The only examples I can think of right now are SILVER SURFER: BLACK!
Bruce Lai
3:38
@Satya thank you, never read. Will rectify
paul pope
3:38
hi evryubody...
Felix Lu
3:39
There he is!! Our SPECIAL GUEST! Welcome, Paul!
ALG
3:39
@Christian C - Can you point us to a link, I'd love to see it.  I was one of the lucky 16 to snag a page in the Tradd Moore drop yesterday!
Morgan
3:39
@Cristian thanks for giving them up!
Satya Chetri
3:39
@Ben good to see you here! How’s it going buddy? Yeah, the Bastian piece is still here, it has a sibling too, lol.
Jason K
3:39
@alg I'd rather he downgraded service so only the most die hard can stick with it
Felix Lu
3:39
@Jason...LOL!
AJ
3:39
Congrats Cristian!

One option would be to do a 5 minute window for blind offers maybe? I generally like the way the drop system works, but can see why something different could be needed for certain drops
