      Thanks for watching and supporting! I’ll be back to the Top 10 lists for a little bit now… books to pick up before they get too pricey and such.

    I'm reading Primos also, Mayan culture always fascinated me, great tips. Things are rough. I currently can't even afford my FOC order. It's hard deciding priorities, especially when I am bi polar. (Known for spending money I don't have)🤪🤪. It's tough being in the hobby on disability, Money is super tight right now with everything going on in the world. Just hoping it gets better. 🖖🖖

      I’m sorry to hear that, Cat Fan. Everybody has a budget, though… at the end of last year, I also had to go through and drop a lot of titles for the time being. On Monday Hauls it looks like I bring in a lot, but for the moment, it’s because I’m behind on filming the videos. There’s some weeks when I go into my main LCS and don’t have anything for pickup. Like you, I’m hoping for brighter days ahead… just create a budget and stick to it!

    I've found great deals. Paid 90 cents for Uncanny X-Force 1, first time Wolverine wears the black suit. I paid $5 for my Omega Men 3 years ago...
    Sometimes after I've waited and tried patience I come to the conclusion that certain books have floors that make it near impossible to find the book for any less. I paid fair market value for my Sandman 1, Mister Miracle 1 and 4, and most recently Hell Arisen 3. There's ways I make sure to hit close to the floor of fair market value by buying raw books, but sometimes as long as I don't feel I overpaid I will end the waiting game and just look for the best listing for my money.

      Excellent strategy! And yes, I agree, some books have a predetermined floor and won’t drop lower. It’s usually more established characters that have an inherent value range.
