I missed the announcements on this event - was there any ask or expectation that the pieces would be discounted in any way? Or was it just another way to get art in front of people for sale? This was just another way to get eyeballs on stock. A lot of it old stock. No discounts necessarily unless the seller intentionally did so to move old inventory. In fact, I spotted 3x-5x markup on pages I’ve seen sold here on the boards or at L.A. Comic Art Con 😒 I didn’t buy anything but I did tune it. Overall, I thought I was a fun idea and wish it was longer than 24 hours. Maybe it’s something that should run Friday through Sunday? I’ve let my CAF premium membership lapse so I wasn’t able to participate. I wish there was a longer notice to get my 🤬 together. I swear this hobby is in dire need of low to mid 3-figure selections if it wants to stay healthy. timguerrero, aokartman, BCarter27 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was happy to find a piece and it fell squarely into your selection category description. There is art at all price points but you do have to be consistently on the lookout and keep grinding for those opportunities. John E. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
