Favorite stories to be reprinted/Gemstone sales

Of all the Barks 10 pagers, my absolute favorite is the statue building 
contest between U$ and a maharajah from WDC&S 138.  Although it has been 
reprinted several times (most recently in U$ 301) it always amazes me that 
this story seems to be overlooked when Barks'  best stories are discussed.

My local comic book dealer (which still has about 20 copies of the free DD 
comic book day comic sitting by the counter) says that he has sold only 3 to 
4 copies each of the new Gemstones.   I have yet to see any of the new 
Gemstones in WalMart or the local bookstore chains.  Without a new base of 
readers I worry that  the comics will not last long.  How is Gemstone doing 
on developing a new readership?
