And all that was to give the illusion that you were buying something that might be valuable one day. The days of holding onto things and them becoming worth large sums are long gone. The reason old comics are worth so much is because there were less of them around and few people thought to keep them, much less take care of them. It's kinda like figure collecting now and why I go loose. When so many people are stashing stuff away in mint condition and things are being promoted for their collectable value they never really gain any. Gimmicks like variant covers are just companies trying to justify the price of their products.
