I got back into collecting about 4 years ago after a 20+ year hiatus. I wish I was collecting 8 years ago. I did not get any of those books pictured above, for cheap. But they are all my fav characters (except Deadpool, he is not a fav of mine, that is a book bought on release day). My best deal of those books was the ASM300. I paid about $350 US, one month before the Venom movie was first announced. With the other books, I paid FMV at the time (but the money spent was made from flipping new books), but all have appreciated since I bought them.
Thank you for taking the time to write all that, and itās definitely good info. I own over 150 CGCs and a lot of them are 9.6s. Itās much easier to find CGC signature series of top artists and writers at 9.6 than 9.8 and I like to collect CGC signature series. I also send in a lot of comics to CGC and have gotten back a bunch of 9.6s. 9.6s are cool with me, especially when I get them on older Bronze Age books and Modern 9.6s are usually not much different from 9.8s anyway.
Come on guys, letās keep it clean, fun and debate the idea, not the person. You can agree or disagree but letās not resort to name calling or personal attacks.
