    And, oh yeah, while I was there, I figured I may as well pick up some comics.

    Great report Tony, Thanks for posting it. That Sensation #13 is  :luhv:  I've been after that one for years. And that Fantastic... well the title of the book says it all. I can't recall ever seeing one for sale. Hey, even the "girly man" "love books" aren't too bad either. Looks like you had fun!

  2. And oh yes, I've kicked people out of my booth more than once. Usually, very rude or whiney folks that try to explain to me why my "price is too high". Usually waving a cell phone with an ebay auction on it. I can deal with that but if you are rude, abusive or whiney, I want you gone. I've never had to get physical but I have called security a couple of times for the real stubborn ones. 

    I often have to explain that the item in question is junk and that they are right. It isn't worth anything especially my "lofty" price. It is stuff people threw away. If they don't believe me, take it to 7-11 and see if they will give you a carton of milk for it. It is only worth money to crazy people like us...

  3. A guy that I work with recently scored in one of those "box lots" at a con. $10. for a "mystery box". He got a very high grade Black Cat Mystery #50. He was actually disappointed that he didn't get an autographed/slabbed Stan Lee book until I told him what he got. He is a SA guy that knows nothing about GA. Sucks to be honest sometimes. I could have probably traded him some X-Men and a Stan autographed book for it. Now he has dollar signs and "stars" in his eyes...

    Bob,I've looked and looked for my other complete copy until my heart breaks.If I ever find it again,you can just have it.I think someone 'lost' it on me.

    Thanks so much Jimmers. I know you mean it and I really appreciate it. To be honest, I've pretty much given up hope on that one. And, you know, I'm OK with it. It really isn't one of my favorite covers anyway. I've always got my fingers in a lot of pots and who knows. I know I won't pay Misfits money for one.

    Hello everyone, first time posting here and this is the place for me because I am a pre-code fanatic!
    I love Tales of Horror #5 and a few of the stories inside.
    I have a few original art pages from the story "Hand of Fate" drawn by Moe Marcus.  I really like his work.
