That's it. Happy hunting!

Wolverine Limited Series #1 (CGC 9.8 with white pages) $750: SOLD per PM. Bought this new and had it graded (not pressed) in 2013.

Incredible Hulk #182 (CGC 9.6 with off-white to white pages.) $2000: Purchased this from a boardie a number of years ago. Well centered with bright colors. Classic Herb Trimpe.

Amazing Spider-Man #12 (CGC 8.5 with white pages. A-1 restoration- small amount of color touch on cover) $1750: I bought this raw at SDCC in 1990. Had it graded (not pressed) in 2015. Seller didn’t know or at least didn’t let me know there was color touch. Nonetheless, it’s a gorgeous Ditko Doctor Octopus cover with solid structure, nice centering and white pages. I have no idea what this is worth due to the restoration. If I’ve priced this too high PM with offers.

As a long time collector I don't think I have ever once thought about tax consequences or inflation relative to my buying and selling comics. As one of the older farts, I was lucky enough to have bought a lot of Marvels during the 60's and 70's. I just wish I had kept more of what I bought. I buy books today with neat covers, with cool artwork and with writing that has something to say. I like the smell of the books, the way they feel when you turn the pages and the pleasure you get from a good storyline. Even with slabs I can still drool over the covers. I still have a 90/10 ratio of raws to slabs. I probably would have a lot more slabs if I wasn't so lazy. If I buy books today that I really like or to complete runs, I just don't think about the tax side or profit and loss. I just need those books for my collection. That's my fix for the day. I think your comments are more applicable to dealers and flippers but not so much to collector collectors.
