I’m planning for one day as well. Are single day tickets only available on the day of convention? I didn’t see a pre-sale option for one day. Any tips on how early to get there? Just moved to Charlotte and looking forward to a new convention after going to C2E2 for years in Chicago. 

For those only going one day -  I still see no advance one day ticket, what do you suggest for smoothest entry? Get there an hour early, get in line & there will be tickets to purchase with cash at the door?

Yeah just get there a little before the con. They usually have several boothes set up for single day tickets. Its a smooth ordeal. Saturdays are busier though.

I'll take whatever the odds are that you leave with zero hefty books, 

I’ll leave with at least one.

Here are some examples, and also a couple pics of a wall, and the New Forces display... just as an idea.

For anyone who is still wondering.

This is the best con of the year.

I'm currently in my hotel room getting ready to take my GF for her first time...the excitement is building!

The pandemic really stole a lot from us...two years of community...the Heroescon volunteer manager passed away due to COVID, as well as so many other loved ones. Let's all have a great weekend together and remind each other why we're still here.

Now that things are starting...Reports from the floor?

[Treco]

About to walk over, also. Can’t wait to see all the goodies!

[ygogolak]

An hour after the con started the line to get a braclet was still out of the building and wrapped around. Not sure how long the wait was but I wouldn’t have been happy waiting in that line.

Scored some great deals today. Several booths had 20% or 25% off all books including one with slabs.

No on the Vengeance 2. Sorry. But to be fair, I’ve spent the bulk of my day looking at Golden age books and a lot of the independent stuff.

Got there at 6:30pm today.  Just in time to see everyone taking down their walls & packing up their stuff.  I did see multiple copies of the one book on my want list, but didn’t get to really look at any.  Talked briefly to Richard (bedrock) and helped Arex take his wall down.  
I’ll be there all day tomorrow.  Hope to see some old friends and meet some new ones.

Unfortunately I was only able to the convention on Friday and not the rest of the weekend. BUT, I did find the book I’ve been searching for!

If I create a sales thread liquidating the rest of my collection, you know why.

Just to clarify, I don’t own this book… yet. It’s just part of their Event Auction #51 preview.
