Nice, did you get the price marked on the box or did you hand them 6 books from the $3-5 dollar boxes and then have them ask you for 50 bucks?

 

:censored:

 

lol

 

I was talking to Emil near the $3 - $5 boxes and absentmindedly flitting through the first couple of comics in a long box. Found a double cover just by touching it. Didn't even look at the book. Pulled it up and told Emil "I'll take it".

 

He glances at it and says, "That's $7".

I believe I witnessed that craziness. There was a real mix of books at that end of the table, and the prices weren't clear at all.

 

If you were the guy who bought 5-6 Spideys and was surprised the price was $50 instead of $15, then I was looking through the boxes right next to you.

Might have been, I only had two Spideys, a dealer with a booth was loaded up on ASM's and that seemed to be going sideways when he was trying to purchase it, I saw him putting stuff back...that may have been after I was told $50 (shrug)

I know I circled around the buying dealer & paid $11 bucks for two Spideys & left the Conans from the 20's sitting on top of the boxes....I had to go to Home Depot in West Seneca for blinds meh

 

It was a mixed bag of dealers today, if you had the time there was good stuff to be found but half the stuff there wasn't in order..

Yes, there was a show in the Buffalo Convention Center four weeks ago, run by Dave & Adams Card World.

 

This show was run by Queen City Books.
