just wondering if this happens to anyone else. I collect Marvel Value Stamps. I learned some time ago that there is color variants of the stamps so I have been collecting them. I am down to needing 2, one of which just happens to be in Giant Sized Fantastic Four #4. I dont care at all about some multiple man character i want the book for the stamp, but because the book is considered a key and i want to complete my collection i will have to shell out hundreds of dollars. 

Happen to anyone else? Collecting something but not for the reason everyone else is?

For me it's FOOM #2.  As a Steranko cover collector it's been on my list.  But not that it's the 'first appearance of Wolverine' it's out of my range.

:p

That's just as stupidly bad as the example I provided.

That's similar to what I go through as a run collector. One day, a complete drek book that I haven’t picked up yet zooms into the stratosphere due to movie hype. 

I didn't know GSFF #4 was still a thing; I thought it already blew over.

 

It's hard being a run collector these days.
