To be honest, some of my reasons are selfish. It just makes searching for back issues on eBay hard. If I want an old issue of "Muscle & Fitness" (I don't think they have numbers), I'll just type the name of the publication and the year - i.e. March 1984 - into the search bar; if I want 2000 AD #995, I'll just type that in; and if I want any number of UK titles, I do the same.
What if I want Wolverine #1? Which one will the eBay search bar bring up?
It's not the most important issue, but I wonder how much of a nightmare it creates for some shops. As I have said previously, one guy (his shop probably not there now) did online mail order and he'd send a catalogue of every issue in stock, simply the title and number, i.e. Batman #544. No pictures, just the issue/number. How would he be able to do that now?
