Don’t know the price. Like they say, “If you have to ask...” Same guy shows up at the Chicagoland Advertising show with one killer piece like this year after year... jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were looking for classic Monster, Star Wars, Robots & Space and Vehicle toys. Had a box of vinyl and a few Rock Posters that sold briskly to them as well. Nice kids and I made sure I gave them real good deals. Several were repeat customers. Oddest sale was a kid about 17 who wanted Davy Crocket stuff. Sold him a couple of pinbacks and a cap gun. About all I had. Glad to see it gone. KirbyJack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 Well another week, another show... Got 25 boxes (short and long) of GA/SA books ready to haul out to Terry’s annual show tomorrow. A box diver’s paradise. I will be the old guy against the wall with the funky rack. Come by and say Hi or introduce yourself. Should be fun. As always, I plan to try and do a little report on Monday with lots of photos. jimjum12 and STORMSHADOW_80 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Robot Man Posted January 28, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2019 Wow! What a day! Like Christmas for me. That one special, epic day. I realized something today. It’s not the money or the books. It’s all the great people that make it great. That one day where you leave your “real life” at the door and just emerse yourself in this wonderful hobby. Got a fun report coming up tomorrow with a bunch of photos. Just one today. This is what my single table looked like literally ALL DAY.

Robot Man Posted January 28, 2019 Author Share Posted January 28, 2019 Still reeling from Terry’s show yesterday. Still gotta unpack the truck, count my loot and check out a few very cool books I picked up. This one just keeps getting better every year. Probably the best one day show on the planet. Was just stuffing money in my pocket all day long from happy collectors. Had very little time to shop or walk around. The joint was elbow to elbow until the last hour. Sooo much killer stuff in the room. And a decent bit of stuff for mere mortals as well. I saw loads of old friends and met a bunch of new ones. Tons of boardies from all over the country and Canada. I apologize it I don’t get all your names right but it was such a blur. The set up. I got there very early. Probably part of my flea market training.
