    One of the main problems I have is that I have a huge list of books that I want, but I have to try and figure out which ones I will end up having to pay XXX for if I don't get them fairly soon haha

    I have a huge backlog of omnibus' to read cause of that. Buying the whole series of books in case later books are OOP by the time I get to read the first book in a series.

    I am learning as I go along since fully changing to collected editions.
    Like that it is better to focus on just building a diverse library of books I want to read
    and not just when I have finished reading a book. Unlike a floppy that if not read after a
    few weeks, will not be read, a book on a shelf will always be picked up and continued (even if it takes years).
    That I have to pick my poison (as it were) and decide what volumes do I did to build on (even if I end up having five or six untouched books)
    before those fall into second or third sellers for a higher price and what books I am more interested in just reading some stories and not
    all too worried if I just end up with vol.1 and 4 of that series.
    It is looking more and more like I am just going to end up with a scattered collection of stories published originally over the past 80 years
    and if I manage to bring a few up to completion than cool............. The Golden Age Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman are probably
    the most likely along with some recent books.

    the most important thing I've learned during the years is patience. I still fuss about getting books that might go oop although I think it's easier to find rare books in the US (still I had some great luck in the UK) but most series get reprinted eventually one way or another.
    The backlog problem can be frustrating but it only bothered me until I got so much books that it's not just an unread pile anymore but half my library which is actually quite comforting because no matter what I fancy at the moment I can always find something unread on the shelf that will satisfy me.

    Having a backlog is not a bad problem to have. I can only imagine what some people have as a backlog here. I look forward to reading everything I have when I eventually get around to it.(2 young kids really slows thing down)
