Had to choose between a Silver Age Spectre run and a full set of '90s Valiant keys at a con last month

Ngl, I stood at that booth in Pittsburgh for like 20 minutes going back and forth. I ended up grabbing the Spectre books because the guy had a solid run from 50 to 70 for $150, but now I keep wondering if I should've snagged those Bloodshot #1s instead. Anyone else ever walk away from a deal and feel that nagging regret?

Ngl I stood at a booth in Pittsburgh for like 20 minutes going back and forth too, except I was just trying to decide if I could afford a hot dog after I already spent too much on comics. I feel your pain though, that Spectre run sounds legit, but those Bloodshot #1s are gonna haunt me too now.

Man that Spectre deal was way too good to pass up though.

Wait hold on, you're telling me those Bloodshot #1s were still sitting there after you walked away? @ellis.faith no offense but you might've made a mistake there. I've seen those things go for stupid money even in rough shape. Still kicking myself for passing on a full run of Shadowman that was sitting at a con back in 2019. Those Valiant first prints from the 90s are getting harder to find in the wild every year.
