Does anyone know a shop with Uncle Scrooge 319 for sale? It's the last Gemstone books I'm missing. It's really hard to get.

Yeah, that's Gemstone's rarest book by far, but dude--you can buy-it-now a copy for fifteen bucks. Better hurry--you're not likely to find a better price than that.

I prefer comic shops. I had a few bad experiences with eBay. Anyway: the guy with the $15 copy is not selling outside the United States.

Well, good luck, is all I can say. Obviously, there must be some comic shop *somewhere* that has a copy, but it seems like a real needle-in-haystack thing (and does it have to be in Germany? Even harder...).

Hey, lucky me! I bought exactly that issue in a comic shop ... in Berlin ... this year in March. I had no idea that it is so rare. Just bought it to have the Don Rosa story in English. Payed the usual price one pays for oversea material for it, that means for a 6,95 Dollars comic book 6,95 Euros.

It must be admitted, I have no idea what comic stores in Germany are like. Maybe such things are no more difficult to find there. Maybe they're easier! Who can say? I mean, aside from people willing to do more than idly speculate?

If comic shops in Germany have older US Disney books, they are cheaper (like the great deal Coolwater got). A reason can be that only a few people collect US Disney books and stores have difficulties to find customers for older in-stock items. On the other hand less shops have US Disney books at all. So if you need a specific issue, it's really hard to find.
I'm also happy with US comic shops. Some have very fair shipping costs to Europe like tfaw.com or mycomicshop.com.
