I've have (6) 1/2 boxes of bagged and boarded comics, mainly #1
issues, sitting out in the garage I'd like to get rid of but a cursory
review of the market shows they are worth next to nothing. Maybe
they'll burn well.
And I have thousands of comic cards, complete sets with chase cards,
in archival sheets and binders too.
I sure wasted alot of $$$ in my later ute.

What were you reading/collecting that #1 issues are almost worthless?
I just read what I liked. I actually had a non-lending comic book
library in college to help support my habit. Collected dues and a had
a punch card catalog system and everything. Some of them are worth a
fair amount. I was a little brought down when I started looking into
the values that the ones that disappeared had most of the value. And
also disappointed to see that what should be the most valuable comic I
have in the collection is missing it's cover and worth a tiny fraction
of an intact comic. No surprise there, still disappointing.
