If You Can't Say Anything Nice...

I remember being 13 or 14, sitting in Bruce Thomson's basement, when he ran his comic shop out of there, not yet in a proper store. Don Jessop and I were sitting there when Bob Klassen came downstairs with a box in his arms, saying, "Got it." Inside was Amazing Fantasy #15, and Spiderman #s 1-100, all in fabulous shape. I asked how much for the set and was told $1000, which was ridiculously far out of reach for me.

I say that because of a recent sale of that first appearance of Spidey.
