Unpopular opinion: I dropped $120 on a comic spinner rack for my apartment and it actually got me out of a collecting rut
I know this sounds like a waste of cash, and my wife sure thought so when I carried it up the stairs back in March. I'd been stuck buying slabs off eBay and stuffing them straight into a long box without ever actually reading anything, which is a pretty sad way to be a comic fan if you ask me. So I grabbed a used four tier wire rack off a guy in Jersey City for $120 and set it up next to my couch. Now I rotate six or seven floppies on it at a time, stuff I actually want to grab, and I've read more books in two months than I did all of last year. The dumb part is I used to think display racks were just for shops or guys with a whole room to show off, but having them out in the open changed how I pick what to read next. Last night my kid pulled a random issue of Saga off the bottom tier and asked me what it was about, which never would've happened if it was buried in a box. Curious if anyone else keeps a small rack or shelf going at home, and what you put on it?

Man, my "display system" is a stack of comics on the floor I keep tripping over, so you're already winning.
