I maybe buy 1 collection a month so that could range from £20-£80 depending if it’s a TPB or omnibus.
I also pay for a Marvel Unlimited subscription.
Too much. Probably around $200, depending on how trades come out. Not including omnis
As more things have become available, and I have mostly bought what I covet, the cost has gone down per-month.
When you start buying books, the material looks endless. I’m glad I hit a point where I usually wait for something to come out that I want. This stuff can get expensive at the outset.
Since I've started collecting Omni's in late May/early June, waaaaaay too damn much. I'm honestly kinda scared to go and count up just how much I've spent on IST since then lmao
Way too much. July was an especially big month. 7 omnibus' plus a mix of trades/epics/deluxes/mmw. I now have most available stuff I want so hopefully it goes down. August only has 1 book I want and only a few in Sept so there are peaks and valleys in spending.
We have a weird policy in my family, you pick your own Birthday / Christmas gifts ahead of time. So I can buy hundreds of euro worth of books throughout the year and put them up as my own gift. So I probably spend ~€80 a month on collected editions. However I know I'll get ~€60 of it back.
When I was buying single issue floppies I was getting between 5-13 books or $20- $55 dollars a week or roughly $100- $150 a month.
Since changing to just collected books, my total for each month is probably slightly higher, but it could easily have been even more so,
but because I like to finish a book before getting the next volume or it has really got to be a must own, I have been able to keep it under
control.
Lately I have been trying to get a few books 2-3 times a month and usually will have one omnibus ($40-$75) and a few soft/hc books ($7- $17)
so roughly I probably spend $200 a month now.
