Silver age is slow, but GA, CA and MA keys/hot books are moving. Title wise, ASM and Bronze X-Men have been moving well for me. Trailer Park Boys #1 is likely the highest volume book of the show thanks to Kevin Boyd in getting the cast to the show. Overall, it has been a good show sales-wise as a lot of small stuff is moving instead of bigger books. Just to continue the age discussion from yesterday, I sold one SA slab today - an X-Men #14 CGC 4.0 - to a collector that was 19-22 years old based on his and his friends looks. He thanked me for it as it completed his X-Men run. Smart kid. I hope he nabbed is #1 in 2018 or a bit earlier.

The next gen is already here, and buying good books. joeypost, Artboy99, jimjum12 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone walked off with an expensive large statue near corner of his booth near an exit for getaway. This was reported to Calgary Expo vendor help staff. My buddy had some relatively minor Space 1999 comics lifted. Auto bank teller machines needed to be reloaded, as they ran out of cash Saturday morning.

Sad sign of the times although always been a problem. They caught a guy at WonderCon red handed with some expensive books. Got his name and a couple of pictures were posted on the internet and in the WonderCon thread. He went to jail. Can you imagine explaining your charge to guys in the joint?… Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
