Does anyone know if there will be more 2-packs of the Doc Savage or
Shadow reprints offered at Sam's Club? How about CostCo?

Thanks!

I've kept my eye out at Costco, but haven't seen any Docs or Shadows there.

I've been checking Sam's Club for more Doc Savage and The Shadow ever
since that first batch [bundling volumes for each character 1&2 and
3&4] and sadly have not seen any.

I hope Nostalgia Ventures puts together more Doc Savage & Shadow
bundles for the warehouse clubs - I know they sold reasonably quickly
in my area.

I see the newly reprinted Docs and Shadows all the time at major book
stores BUT they are also available through the PREVIEWS catalogue so
you can order them at a local comic shop.

The two-packs that were available at Sam's Club [and Costco?, don't
know if they carried any] sold at $14-$15, a big bargain over the
usual bookstore price of $13 a volume. Not that the Doc Savage and
Shadow reprints are worth $13 a piece - it's just nice to find a great
deal on them.

Yeah. I've looked online to find good prices, but found some deals
too good to be true. For example, I found several places that sell
the Docs and Shadows for $6.55 each. But then shipping is $3.50 per
book--doesn't matter how many books you buy, it's still $3.50 per book
for shipping.

I found another place that shows them at $3.55 each, but with your
order you automatically get signed up for a $9.99 monthly charge to be
a "member" or "subscriber" to their discount pricing. Read lots of
bad reviews of that place--it goes under a variety of names, one of
which is www.hotbooksale.com. There have been lots of online
complaints about them.

Yeesh! I hate when I leave out words like than, I meant to say "not
that the Doc Savage and Shadow reprints AREN'T worth $13 a piece"

I've gladly bought some of them at that price, but it's even better
when I can get them at an even lower price.
