Journey Into Mystery 83 CGC 5.0 Switched label??
aardvark88 replied to James J Johnson's topic in Comics General
Could be a simple clerical mistake: typing up label as a 5.0 after misreading 3.0 on overtime. CGC has made mistakes in the past due to volume. -
Seems that way, as once you include the taxes, FEV 8' x 8' non-corner booth is about $950. Oh well, Fan Expo Edmonton next for AB. Sell lots.
-
If anything, CGC should abandon Fan Expo Vancouver and support growing Fan Expos like Calgary and Edmonton that have stronger vendor, customer and fan support.
-
Will any of this new collection be available for sale at Red and White or will the royal debut be at Edmonton Expo?

Sunday's retail sales were as flaccid as greggy. Hotels a bit spendy averaging $175/night during peak summer weekend in Kelowna. Fine variety of wineries to visit in West Kelowna for your spouse who will surely spend more $$ on vino than you do restocking comics. Watch out for smoke from wild fires plus the hwy near Sicamous was closed for over 3 hours so some vendors arrived very late for Friday dealer set up. About 8 hr drive from Calgary so farther from Edmonton. Kelowna expo had a very nice Walking Dead and Stargate display plus co-sponsorship from Kelowna library.

Shenanigans. You quoted me $300 US on the GA Subby recreation cover but friendlier Albertans with the secret handshake get art at $300 loonies? I can do basic math thanks to Smart phone app.

"Only" 5 days of driving each way to /from Toronto. Just park your van overnight at Wal-marts across Canada and sleep on top of your long boxes. Use 5 Cgc slabs as your pillow of dreams.

Dearest Andy: Please show Harley some hospitality by lending him a strip of very strong Canadian duct tape to repair the bottom rail of his wombat that bent in half.

How much for the GA Sub-mariner Comics #10(?) cover recreation? You have such nice taste Andy.
-
Does Fan Expo charge extra for the black skirting that is usually on the 8' or 6' long vendor's tables? Recommend you recycle your old Popeye bed sheets as a table cloth.
-
I recommend you feed your sons more than Buddhist vegetables to build up their upper body muscles to help you lift long boxes and heavy Cgc boxes, as you become aged. Say hello to Evan C from CanadianComics.net visiting Toronto for the first time to attempt to restock. Andy: have a great show!

A Blue Bolt #105 Discussion deserving of it's own Thread
aardvark88 replied to bounty_coder's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
Cover is better designed from a comic book perspective than Suspense Comics #3, as collectors usually prefer space/rocket themes compared to KKK, and is about $130,000 less in top slabbed shape. Low Cgc census #s on both classic cover issues.- 147 replies

ComicConnect and ComicLink August auctions
aardvark88 replied to Gotham Kid's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
Sheesh. Is Blue Bolt #105 the next Terrific #5? L.B. Cole vs Schombourg. cLink has Blue Bolt #105 Cgc 9.8 at close to $38k and Cgc 9.2 missing a page at $3,111 closing later today. -
Any Atlas or SA DC in that new collection you bought?

Kelowna Expo show will grow next year so I recommend you and your buddy join in the fun in summer, 2019 (dates to be announced). Highlight was my booth 'Comic Adventures:' No food trucks until summer, 2019 Expo. 45 min line up for nachos for lunch. ATM ran out of funds after Sat. Free parking. New customers, friendly folk from Kelowna, Penticton, Sicamous, Abbotsford, and tourist from England who bought a SA DC. No shoplifters, and Sunday attendance flat-lined compared to Sat. per usual trend for a 1st time 2 day Expo in a relatively small city.

Comic Book Dealer Dies - What Typically Happens to the Books?
aardvark88 replied to 1Cool's topic in Comics General
I think you meant "executor" of your friend's will. Typo. -
Recommend you watch out for the fires and smoke around Kamloops, BC. Suggest Golden Age Collectables in downtown Vancouver, BC but greggy already grabbed all the good stuff. Still you may be able to fill part of your want-list. Calgary has smoke too from the BC forest fires raging. Forest City Coins in Ontario. fyi, gas costs much more in Canada compared to USA.

Ask Redbeard Tales of a veteran comic book dealer
aardvark88 replied to Robot Man's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
Was McLaughlin the SDCC dealer that if you dared make a counter-offer to, he would pull the vintage comic back so 'No comic for you?' -
fyi, Mysterio has been announced as Tom Holland's ASM's next movie villian.
