Nothing of interest in the $1-3 boxes? (I understand, maybe you don't want to waste time/space?)

Nothing against the $1-$3 boxes, but I'm more interested in these types of boxes.   Especially from a dealer I've never seen before.   I looked through all of his boxes.

So another show with nothing worth buying?

I usually do not buy books at this show.  Sometimes I buy lost cost OA when a certain dealer is there. 

Years ago, I bought a JIM 84 with an undisclosed married centerfold from the bald dealer.  After CGC graded it, he wouldn't do anything about it.  I don't buy from him.

I don't buy from the dude who forces his dog to balance on his shoulders for hours a day. 

I don't buy from the dealer who doesn't have prices on his books and turns to Overstreet when you hand him some potential purchases.

This time around there was a new dealer I hadn't seen setup before.  I only bought from this box of his:

Are there some books where the dealer turning to OPG would not be so great? Karma-ish?

@BlowUpTheMoon I'm not sure which bald dealer you are referring to, but the first guy I bought from at the show had glasses and a nametag that said "Dave." Something to note about Dave's prices is that for the most part, you can ignore the sticker price because what you actually pay is written on the back of the bag and I believe this book is no exception:

That being said, he did want $10 for a Ghost Rider #91! :boo:

I bought these eight books from him, the last of which he did not charge me for:

I also got these three books from that Canadian dealer in the neon green vest who was there with his father:
