25
I chose to collect single issues over trades and my friends think I'm nuts
My local shop had a full run of a 90s X-Men arc, about 40 books for $80, but the collected trade was only $25. I bought the singles because I love the ads and letter columns, things you lose in the trade. Has anyone else made a similar choice for the 'floppy' experience over convenience?

That 90s X-Men run is a great find, but I'm pretty sure that $80 for 40 books works out to two bucks each, not a dollar.

Get why you like the old ads and stuff, but paying over three times the price for the same story seems wild to me.
