I could order them off ebay or amazon or some such but I enjoy coming across such finds in physical locations .
I feel the same way. I’m only about 10 or so issues away from owning all of the Goodwin/Infantino issues, so I could order them online for a decent-ish price, but if I did that I wouldn’t find interesting places like the one I found today. The store was literally just in some guys house, but he had the largest selections of old comics I’ve seen in any comic store, period (and that’s including big city stores). The owner was a really nice guy and we ended up discussing various things about Marvel SW (like pre-ROTJ Jabba, etc). He even gave me a discount because I bought so much at once.
eBay is something I’ll only resort to when I’m missing like one or two issues (maybe, we’ll see).
