I usually don't buy books with tape, but there was one instance where I really regretted not doing so.  Years ago, my LCS had an X-Men #1 that on rough evaluation was maybe a 5.5 or 6.  The only issue was there was a roughly 2" piece of scotch tape on the inside front cover.  It wasn't even being used to repair a tear; it was just there.  The asking price was $2000.  The value of the book went bonkers since then and I paid roughly 3x for the copy I have now.

Hello everyone!  I've been a life-long comic nut and just started delving into graded comics.  I recently fulfilled my childhood dream of acquiring an X-Men #1 and Avengers #1!  Looking forward to being part of a great community here!
