Derek always runs a fun show the Dude will be there

[ion comics]

Jking, I'll be wearing either a Walking Dead or Deadpool shirt.

 

The majority of my show inventory is Copper/Modern keys, semi-keys and variants. I almost never bring CGC books to shows but might throw a few in this time.

 

Will have approximately 10 long boxes of cool stuff for Derek's upcoming show. If you are looking for anything in particular, feel free to PM me!

 

Regards!

I'll be there too! Always a great buying show.

Is there a dealer list? Wondering if Gary Platt and Marc Nathan will be there?

Well I spent spent spwnt, but I'm very happy with my pickups

 

[stroszek]

It's a nice admission price and a well-run show. I just wish there weren't so many VG books with NM sticker prices in the bins. When someone is asking between 5 and 10x FMV for a low-grade, non-key book, there's really not much motivation to negotiate. Or to keep looking at the rest of their inventory. Over $50 for a beat copy of Millie the Model in the 200s (worse than one I bought for $5 last year) was enough to send me moving to another table.

 

Fortunately there are always a few dealers with good deals in their $2 or $1 bins, so it's still worth it. I'd like to score something bigger than fill-in copies of Kull and Groo, but there are enough viable options to keep you looking for an hour or two.

 

Today was the lightest attended one I've seen in a while. Maybe everyone has convention hangover. Or they got their Eagles tailgating started early.

Good stuff.

 

Philly is a good show for buying, not so much for selling...that's why I haven't set up there in over a year.

 

I recognize the price stickers on the ASM 361,362 as Bob Fox's.....he's a good guy to deal with.

 

And based on the Mylite2 bag, I'm guessing that you got the Dark Knight Returns #1 from a friend of mine, who I frequently set up at shows with, Joe Walsh... (thumbs u

 

[Jking3437]

100 percent correct on both dealers

 

It was a good buying show !! Happy I went
