Totally understand since I am also clearly sliding down on the far right hand side of the collecting life cycle myself. 

Should we expect to see books from your collection on CC soon?

I was able to pretty much stop buying comics, but all I ended up doing was redirecting my energy (and money) into OA. 

The collector gene is strong.

Well, I guess it really depends on your level of patience and your definition of "soon", as you should know that I pretty much went from a state of "purchasing" to a state of "holding" way back in the mid-90's when the price of these GA vintage books got far too expensive for my taste and also for my wallet.      

If you are thinking of getting your mittens on my uber HG copy of X-Men #1 (the Jim Lee version that is  ), sad to say, but you just might have to wait a bit longer than you want.

@lou_fine, I think you should bring back the 90s by selling your collection through an auction by mail—none of this new-fangled internet bidding. You could send prospective bidders a black-and-white catalog with grades and notes but no pictures.

Now, that sounds like a novel idea to me..............just let me dig out my Overstreet Price Guide from the 90's so that I can figure out the true value of my books to ensure that I won't get ripped off by selling them at too low of a price.
