Kirby & Deb Tardy of Tardy's Collectors Corner in Grand Rapids, Michigan read the recent article regarding Diamond's "Day Early Delivery" survey (see "Diamond Surveys Tuesday Comics") and had this to say:
Absolutely keep Wednesday as new comic day. I am all for getting comics on Tuesday in order to relieve some pressure but please don't change anything else! Many of us use Monday as a day off and our customers are well attuned to Wednesday as their day.
Has anyone seen the Previewsworld.com ads? The "Finally Wednesday" is a great ad copy line. Why waste this effort? One question: how can Diamond service all the stores on Monday but not Tuesday? I don't understand the logic there. Also, if do we get comics one day early then I will gain two hours of sleep a week since I'll no longer have to drive to the UPS terminal and pick-up my comics. I'll actually be getting the delivery service I pay for!
