LudaToke Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Looks like a good show with lots of cool stuff to look through. I am patiently waiting for FanExpo in Toronto at the end of the summer. It has been 3 years since I have been at a show. ADAMANTIUM and thirdgreenham 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kimik Posted April 23, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 23, 2022 Day two was a fun one. Lots of books being snapped up by other dealers as well as collectors. Two things we are really seeing this year: 1) there are a lot of new and younger collectors that have entered the hobby the past two years who are buying older run books as well as keys, and 2) there are a lot of new young female collectors. Sellers with other products said they noticed a huge uptick in young female customers at the show as well. Maybe the Alberta market will be an outlier, but the collector-base is larger and younger than I can remember selling since the late 90s when I was in university. Back then, it was almost all male and middle aged for the most part. This is a great sign for the health of the local market. We noticed this trend at the one-day shows that were held last fall and this spring, and it has carried over to the Expo now. The next two days should be busy as the crowds are back to pre-Covid levels for the show. Larryw7, Beige, gyro-1 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted April 23, 2022 Author Share Posted April 23, 2022 In addition, some lucky fellow boardies made some nice scores on OA from the artists at the show today. $50 apiece for the pages you lucky few landed was a steal........... piper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
