Comic books. I'm not the type that collects comic books for their value, I just enjoy reading them... but today's cover prices are unbelievable! When I started as a kid, the price was $.12 per issue. Now the average price is approximately $2.99.   Kids can't afford them today, they are the hobby of middle age guys like myself.

I also enjoy HO trains, but they have not run in a few years. My project for the spring is to clean out the basement and get the layour running again.
