That ’s the thing about Free Comic Book Day . It ’s not detached . publisher pay to publish the comics , Diamond give to distribute them , and retailers pay to receive them . you could expect your comic store to have to have paid twenty to twenty - five cents for each issue they give away for free .
Add it up , that ’s quite a bit of cash retail merchant have to fork out .
Retailers have require Diamond if they could spread the price of this out , rather than have it all land on a week two weeks before the daytime itself , the first Saturday in May . And , after much discussion at ComicsPROs and breakfast and Summits , Diamond has done exactly that .
To alleviate the encumbrance of a large invoice for Free Comic Book Day titles , Diamond Comic Distributors has herald that it will bill participating U.S. and Canadian retail merchant on two separate invoice .
" Many retailers have request in the yesteryear to delay charge for Free Comic Book Day book due to the big cost postulate with that hebdomad ’s bill , " said Diamond VP - Sales and Marketing Roger Fletcher . " We ’re happy that we can oblige , and hopefully splitting the invoice cost to before and after the case will comfort the burden on retailers , so they can concentrate on having an exciting and successful Free Comic Book Day Event . "
However , due to customs clearance necessary , international FCBD retailers outside the U.S. and Canada – let in Britain -will be invoiced at full price for all books on their invoicing for product on sale April 11th .
dreary Guy .
