Lots of good points. Painters tape is a must, library card is a must, and staying focused on which books you actually want and ignoring “good deals” on books you don’t really want. Good stuff man!
Words of wisdom! Thanks for sharing. I absolutely agree with the painter's tape. I'm going to start dinging sellers in reviews if they are still using scotch tape or packing tape inside the box. Outside the box, yes, use good sturdy tape, but inside the box using scotch tape to secure cardboard or bubble wrap is just asking for trouble. I am also guilty of buying too many minor-key bargains. I need to lock up my piggy bank until I've saved enough for a high-grade AMS #300!
Great tips! You are so right about trying to save yourself from spontaneous spending on minor keys. It may not feel like it but your pile of money saved from that will bring so much more joy when you imagine what big book you can use it toward.
Haul Yeah want me over. Subbed and looking forward to your content. He got way more!! Plus old DC. You younguns in love with Venom and Carnage!!! If you’re happy, that’s perfect.
All great channels. I do like the hunt for hulk 181 starting with $10. Great idea. I'm not that creative, lol. Also outside of RU-vid I'm definitely an introvert so it's hard for me to get footage. I try but it's not the greatest. Lol. Very cool of you to shout out these channels. Guys like you give me faith that the younger generation collector is going to be ok. Lmao. 👊🏼
I actaully just found basement comics a week or two ago. I saw one video and then started watching all his videos from the begining on. Its an epic story. If he wasnt a whatnot seller I think this premise would take much longer. However im still watching
I love how your spidey collections coming. What a deal from chilectibles though! Sometimes I find those books turn into bidding wars amd ppl end up paying more than fmv sometimes. But I've def bought from him before. He's the only one offering free shipping and his books are 2nd to none
It's nice to have a 6 month retrospective where you can see how far you've come in such a (relatively) short time! Lots of great pickups, keep it going (as best as you can with your life circumstances changing soon)!
Thanks! This video was just as much for me as it was to share with everyone. Going to be reading and digging a lot more this half of the year for sure!
Wow Next Gen! I can't thank you enough for shouting me out and sharing this! This is so awesome. That slab has been in my personal collection for a few years so once we connected and shared a love for Saga, I was beyond excited that you snagged it. Thank you for this and thank you for supporting me during my live show! Much love!
I got on Saga some what early on. I have luckily been able to grab pretty much all issues in first print except 1. Congrats on yours man!! I am torn with whether I like the story or not. I fell off when Brian and Fiona took their years hiatus and never really got back into reading it. Also, the way they ended the last story arc before going on hiatus might have ruined it for me. IDK.
Oh lawd you have me a little nervous now - but my goal is to get caught up by the end of this year / collecting wise I think I’ll be shooting for 1-10 + awesome covers
I’m extremely late to the party lol, but I feel it gives me a realistic goal of being able to catch up since it’s still ongoing. These issues seem to be a quite easy read, but that could just be me enjoying it so much in blasting through them lol.
Great haul, brother! I have tried Saga a couple of times, just not my vibe personally, but I love to hear people talk about what they enjoy. #staylegendary & much ❤
