My local Comic shop is not participating this year so I come to the board cap in hand!

If any kindly boarder comes across a spare copy and would like to pass it on - here I am!

I don't use PayPal but am willing to do a Noel Edmonds style Swap Shop kind of deal. I'll dig through my pile of goodies and offer something of at least five pound value (more likely higher as it's still better than buying from the internet).

Thanks in advance!

Cheers

Heh! I imagine quite a few people might be doing this. My local's not doing FCBD either, but a place in Reading is. So I'll nip there and hope for the best.

Update: Just got a response from said shop: "Yes - I have the 2000 AD issue, but I think I've literally only ordered one of them ..."

There's normally a few retailers that do them for p&p / cost so it's worth keeping your eyes open.  Last few years one was recommended whose name escapes me but I remember trying and never getting the damn thing and having to chase elsewhere.

Great to see Sweeny Toddler in the prog!

Edit: Sorry, came to this thread via a link & didn't realise it was in the Classifieds.

Place in Space on eBay usually does them a couple of days after the event.

Just to reiterate I'll happily buy a spare/do a swap/offer a charitable donation if someone can send me a 2000 AD. My local store only bought one copy in, and so that was always a hiding to nothing.

Think that's who I ended up going with last year in the end.  Judging by some comments it looks like quite a few of us are chasing this down again.  Patience generally seems to wear down the majority of scalpers.

.... who are clearly out in force judging by eBay.  £15 anybody?   :o

I have a spare copy for you here NapalmKev, or for the next intetrested party if you're already sorted. That being IP, I believe.

You're a Star, Sir! I'll take it, thank you very much! I'm happy to swap something for it! I'll PM my details to you.

I picked up two copies while no one was looking (sorry Travelling Man) but I can't remember who needs one - first to PM me with their address gets my spare
