I have done very well selling at mini-cons in BC, Canada  during this Covid summer. Folks are hungry for back issue comics, pop culture, and chatting with a live person. The $ale$ churn per hour is higher than I expected. Good luck.

[Cobbledclam]

Yes. Shop while you can! Cuts out a lot of tire kicking and I'll check to see if you still have it later. If you shop by lists then prioritize and be ready to rumble!

How many booths will Period Panties have?   If you want a real Rosemont Show they have to be at least 10% of the show floor.

And beer is your confidant 

[AndyFish]

I think it's a great idea and I hope it does very well.

[Cobbledclam]

Bump de bump de bump!

For customers flying in or driving a long distance what is the discounted room rate and how do they get it?

[Cobbledclam]

It's true🙈I almost made that mistake once. Derrick will be on view for a feeding on Saturday and Sunday. In the meantime buy his books and supplies. That keeps him happy.
