Just Counted My Old Pre-Unity Valiants... Ouch

I spent nearly $300 on a full set of early Valiant comics back in 2019 thinking they'd be my retirement fund, but now I can barely get $40 for the whole box. Has anyone else taken a bath on spec buys they swore would be gold?

Spec buying rarely works out how anyone expects.

Do you think the people who win big on specs just got lucky, or did they see something others missed?

Yeah, "rarely works out how anyone expects" - I bought into a hot tip once and ended up with a box of vintage Beanie Babies in my closet.
