Go figure

So I buy a guy's small collection today, a smattering of this and that, but nothing great with the bulk coming from bronze and copper, it seems...but for some reason he has in there about 20 (maybe 17, maybe 23; I haven't grouped them all together yet, but counted one cluster of 15) copies of Crisis on Infinite Earths #3. What was this guy betting on?

20 on the nose, to be exact.

I cannot figure out why he would have speculated on this particular issue.

Maybe his shop over ordered and he got a deal on them :shrug:

If I still have his # in my phone, I will text him, out of curiosity....Love to know what struck him at the time....then again, I'd love to know what struck ME that I still have 15 copies of Elementals #1

My collection has blips like that because a store I'd buy from my have been loaded on an issue and put it out in the chap boxes all the time and I'd buy a copy every time I saw it in there, particularly if old and high grade. I can't help myself.

#3..maybe a shop owner late to the Infinite Crisis party ordered a ton of #3..

Kind of like my old shop had ordered a ton of Thor 339 after missing out on 337 and 338.

As a guy who once had stacks of Thor 338-341, I could see that! Thx!

If I remember to text him, I'll report back.
