CANCELLATION POLICY

VARIANT COVER POLICY

On June 1^st, 2021, our Variant Policy was updated. Please read below to understand the changes you may experience with your subscription.

Dragon’s Lair Comics & Fantasy® Austin is proud to provide a valuable and efficient subscription service to our customers. In our industry, it is common practice to sell “Variant” comic covers at a significant markup. Dragon’s Lair Comics & Fantasy® Austin is unique because we do not follow this practice, and choose to sell them at cover price. We qualify Variant comic covers as the following:

Any version of a comic that has specific requirements or regulations to order. For instance, we often find that we must order ten copies of a series’ Main cover before we are permitted to order a Variant cover. Covers that have requirements like this are considered Variants. Any covers that are openly available for order are considered Main covers.

Any subscriber may request to receive Variant covers for titles to which they are subscribed. If so, said subscribers will only, at most, receive one of a Main cover and one of a Variant cover, if available. Variant covers are pulled for subscribers on a random basis, to ensure that all subscribers have an equal chance to receive these sought-after items.

Dragon’s Lair Comics & Fantasy® Austin does not accept special orders for Variant covers or subscriptions that  are only for Variant covers. Variant covers are never guaranteed for any customer, regardless of subscription status.

All customers are always limited to a maximum of three (3) copies of any comic, regardless of what cover they are. Phone and email requests to place Variant covers on hold will not be accepted – customers must come in-store to purchase these items.

These policies are in place in order to make access to our limited supply of variants fair to all guests.

If you have any questions regarding this Variant Policy, give us a call at (512) 454-2399 or email our Subscription Manager at kaylee@dlair.net.
