It took a lot of time and emails exchange to finally solve it. In the meantime, I reached out to IST several times, with quite a lot of time in between, explaining what had happened and asking them to please tell their courier to try and fix the situation by confirming my real value declaration.

They never answered. They didn't care at all that I might have lost about 500 Euros in comics.

Needless to say, they were dead to me from that moment on.

I moved on to Waltscomicshop in Berlin and never looked back. Yes, their discounts are not that deep by any means, but they do have a very reasonable flat shipping rate, and the shipping on IST had become prohibitive anyway and there are no customs involved (in my case), so it all evens out. Also, they reply very soon, they're accommodating (you can move books from an order to another should their release dates be altered), and Walt's bulletins are genuinely funny.

Just telling you this as a word of caution, so that you know that if something unexpected happens, you'll probably be sh1t ouf of luck.

Oh, That is so shoking to hear. I have been giving orders from IST since 2016. It has been 52 orders so far and i have never had such a problem. Thanks everything.

Walt is too expensive for at least Turkiye. They are selling the books two times more expensive than IST and shipping to Turkiye is very expensive as well. They are no good for me. I hope i will have no problem with IST, fingers crossed. Otherwise Amazon Turkiye will be my only option and they won't have variant covers for Omnibuses. :/

Yeah, looks like you have little choice then.

Fingers crossed!

Impulse buy !

Not an Omnibus, but i got Suicide Squade: Get Joker ! OHC Anyone read it ? any thoughts ?

[The Dark Knight]

Man... It has been so long since i last read Superman, so i wanted to read some Superman. It was overdue to read Alan Moore Superman and I read Whatever Happened to The Man of Tomorrow ? Deluxe Edition , but it was just mediocre. I mean this is seriously the best of classic Superman...? The Man Who Has Everything one shot in it was kind of ok though.

Then i started to read another Superman Deluxe Edition which i also had high hopes for, because it was written by Kurt Busiek. I read Superman: Secret Identity from him and it was good, but i am in the middle of Superman Camelot Falls Deluxe Edition by him and it was a waste of time to read for sure... But i paid for this mediocre piece of crap so i will finish it... lol

Whatever happens to these writers when they write monthly Superman title ? they are great on Superman minis or maxi series, but when they come to monthly Superman title, all of a sudden they start to produce mediocre crap...This is the second time with Busiek after Morrison... Grant Morrison, All Star Superman maxi series was superb. The Best Superman, i have ever read, but when he came to the monthly Superman book, the stuff, Morrison produced was such a mediocre crap... Are monthly Superman titles cursed or something ? lol

One Dark Knight is pretty good. The Black Label Batman stuff is the only current stuff I can read.

You should definetly try Suicide Squad: Get Joker ! it was a good read. It was kind of a Bat stuff as well. It had Joker, Harley, Jason Todd in it. Also a really tiny cameo from Deadshot and Deathstroke.
