My barber said comic fans are the only customers who argue about haircut prices
I was getting a trim last week and my barber, Mike, told me he's noticed that people who talk about comics while in his chair are way more likely to question his $30 rate compared to other clients. He said it's like they're used to debating the value of a $4.99 book versus a $5.99 variant cover, so they bring that energy to everything. Does anyone else get told they over-analyze prices on normal stuff because of comics?

My uncle runs a comic shop and he says the same thing about trade paperbacks. People will spend twenty minutes comparing the page count of two $25 books but then drop $8 on a fancy coffee without blinking. Maybe it's that collector mindset where every detail has to be justified.
