So I took about 70% of my single issues and 8 trades of mine I didn't really like to Half Price and sold them. I coupled the money they gave me with a $15 off coupon to buy some new comics without spending a dime.

Batman and Robin v1 Batman Reborn Deluxe HC
Gotham Central Book 1 HC

Captain America: No Escape HC

Honestly, I wish I could keep my collections uniform like some of y'all, but I've bought most of my collections used/second hand so I didn't usually get much of a choice between HCs and softcovers. For example, my Cap collection is comprised of an Ultimate Collection, regular softcovers and premiere HCs. Similar deal with some of my other collections. It's only bad if I get an oversized HC or an Omnibus. There's no way I can place my Invincible Iron Man omni next to my regular Extremis trade. It just looks *absurd*/nerdproblems
In order to make sure I don't double dip on trades, I started making a spreadsheet of the ones I have and ones I need. This is gonna take me forever. This was a bad/good idea. Anybody else do this?
