Ec...I'm a huge fan of trade-waiting, frankly. <br /><br />Economically, it can be a bit of a hassle though, as in order to make the weekly (or bi-weekly) shop worthwhile, you need to be following a shitload of titles.<br /><br />Then again, it also forces you to experiment.<br /><br />Can I also recommend the Soho Book & Comic Exchange? Lots of cheap trades - and generally pretty new ones, too.Jaredhttp://www.pornokitsch.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8916213262630361276.post-72944205774827885632009-07-01T10:37:24.182+01:002009-07-01T10:37:24.182+01:00To be honest longbox has zero appeal to me because...To be honest longbox has zero appeal to me because I don't like reading comics on a computer screen. <br /><br />After I wrote about giving up single issues, I sat down and read a few and quite enjoyed them. Still I think I'm going to cut back. Didn't buy the new Rucka Detective and won't be getting Captain America Reborn. Both can wait until the trade. When I'm finished with the current mini series I'm reading, I'm making a rule not to buy any more in single issue form. I'm also not going to pick up any new ongoing series.Dom Suttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10941146437888338277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8916213262630361276.post-22257557558802268272009-06-30T15:49:42.337+01:002009-06-30T15:49:42.337+01:00I thought you'd be the last person to trade wa...I thought you'd be the last person to trade wait to be honest. I'd miss the weekly trip to the shop most I think, but I've been getting stuff out of the library lately and it's been great, especially as we have quite a small flat and not much shelf space. I'm also interested in this 'Longbox' $.99 digital thing I have been hearing about. Not sure I'll ever totally give up singles though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
