But the iPad cost you how much...... ? :)

TradeMe and local car boot sales probably best bet for cheap comics.

Gotham Comics in Onehunga, AKL have various deals for surplus comics.

http://www.comics.co.nz/

Not quite as cheap as $2 for 6, but they wouldn't be the rubbish ones either.

FWIW, still reading and collecting 2000AD - 34 years worth stuffed up in the attic :-)

Many years ago I sold my (substantial) comics collection for something like $150+Postage. I don't recall how many there were, but they equated to over 60Kg in weight as shipping was astronomical.

Moving out of home certainly had its downsides. Now I limit myself to a couple of dead-tree issues and a few via the DC Comics app on my TouchPad.

dvb1 - what's your tablet? It can almost certainly be revived.
