Making the Move from Collecting to Investing.

I am in the same boat. After spending so much time and energy collecting i realized that as long as i stay informed and smart about what i am buying, Every dollar i spend on comics could easily bring back a 10 % profit and thats equal to what i will get on most investment accounts. My initial investment was a batman #1 (new 52) . Two weeks after owning i had an offer for a 30% profit.

Even though the market is hot on suicide squad #1..... I STILL cannot say how solid of an investment i feel it is !!!!!
movie by all signs is gonna do well and more than likely launch a solo harley quinn....and even though its not a true harley quinn #1, i think it will surpass it. Due to the fact that it portrays the harley quinn people are going to see!!! i bought a copy last night and i'm debating on buying more.

Personally i think master race is a trap...... shows all signs and pedigree of a sure fire investment. But they are saturating the market.

Anything cable is cheap right now and will surely go up as he is featured in the next movie.

Issues selling too cheap online.

I've noticed as of late a lot of key issues are just being sold for flat out way under market value....for instance,I have a new 52 batman #1 graded at 9.6. Value shows about $600. Now I'm not unrealistic in thinking I'm getting that but myself and people posting these books for 2-300 are not out of line I.m.o.

But you have people taking $120 for a 9.6 on eBay ?????

C'mon man!!! I.m.o. You have people who bought it and need the money quick. But that's a very nice issue!!! Why would you sell it under those terms??? That book will go nowhere but up!! This is not a hobby where you're gonna get rich quickly...and shouldn't be approached that way,if you're buying a book as an investment... Be prepared to sit on it.
