Moving back from Saskatchewan to Ontario over the next week. I pushed hard & sold the remainder of the comics I brought here to sell, plus a few of those big omnibus books that I regretted purchasing. Just over $2000 received, which was likely half of what I spent. Oh well, I don't have to worry about keeping them in perfect shape driving across the country.

What's gone:

Preacher - complete run plus all specials & limited series
40ish issues of Sandman, no key books, but did have a couple of Death limited series & a couple of special issues
All my DC Rebirth stuff including the special, full King Batman, Tynion Detective to 1000, full pre-Bendis Superman & Action plus random others
All my Annihilation stuff including the good Abnett & Lanning GoTG run which I've still never read ><
Jason Aaron Thor & Valkyrie stuff (post issue 700, I still have the Jane Thor stuff at home)
Full short box of Hickman X-men related stuff, House & Powers, Marauders, New Mutants, etc. It underwhelmed me anyhow.
One long box of 90s/00s stuff I didn't care about any more - Bendis' Powers, WILDCats v2, etc & my Miracleman Marvel reprints

Nothing I'll miss really & the money never hurts.

Getting half sounds like a good deal.
And not having to haul it is a bonus.

Doing the math by figuring you spent $5 per comic is stressful. Each box of 250 means you spent $1250 on new comics. :barf:

Yeah, every time I think about cutting back, here comes 2 new mini-series I want to read.
I'm afraid to add them up.

And that’s not counting supplies; bags, boards, boxes…a de-humidifier…

Oh well, I don’t drink, smoke, do drugs. The money I save on not having other vices means I have more to blow on floppies. Lol

You said "blow on floppies."

If you blow on them and they stay floppy, there's a blue pill that might help.
