And a lot of people don't like that all you care about is what a comic sells for. All you see is the investment side to the hobby. Why don't you collect gold coins or something and leave comics to those who like them for what they are, and not what they are worth.
You'll be a lot happier, and so will we, not having your incessant drivel cluttering up a board about comics.

Well, since I stopped buying antique boot jacks I've noticed a steady effect on the Golden Age comics market.
