I have a question for those of you that like to purchase comic books issue per issue and/or like to collect them. Does redeeming/peeling the digital code from your issues lessen the quality of your comic book or do you not really care? I know that for selling and extreme collecting purposes it would, but I'd like to know from the general mass if you feel like peeling/redeeming your digital code makes the comic worth less for you or if you just really don't care.

Do you redeem the digital code to then bag, board and store your comic to keep it as nice as possible?
Do you read it AND redeem the digital code but then try to keep it as nice as possible?
Do you read it but don't peel/redeem your code to keep it as nice as possible?
Do you just not care for the overall quality of them?

I'm really interested in hearing what others think on this!

I read, then bag. I have no interest in the digital copy so I never peel off the label.

I used to always redeem the digital copy code, but now I never do.

Is it because you're just no longer interested in getting a digital copy or is it due to the quality/condition of the comic?

I am the first option, I usually redeem the code so It can be on my computer and then I store them away in a nice place.

I am definitely glad to see some varying opinions here! Though I feel like no one's really addressing their thoughts on if it affects the overall condition of your comic. To those that care about that stuff, of course!

I don't care about digital comics so I never peel off the sticker. I an not even sure if peeling off the sticker would lessen the value, I would ask someone who appraises comics about that.

And my comics are just in a few stacks on the floor. They are very nice and neat stacks, and they are all in good condition, but it's just a stack on the floor nonetheless.

I am waaay too picky with my comics, I don't think I could ever have them on a stack on the floor. @.@

... Did you just answer the title of the topic without actually reading the topic itself? 'Cause that doesn't really answer anything I was addressing in here. xD

I read it and redeem the code to. It gives me a digital library to share with friends if they are interested.
