    PA is such a deadzone for collectibles. Anyway, I know the organizer so I think this is going to be a good show. Entry is less than $10 so if you're in the area and not frozen solid there are worse ways to spend the day.

    I had a good time, just sold a few bots and hang out with some good friends. Wish I had more cash to spend though.

    You and me both. It kills me to pass up so much cool stuff. Sales have just been in such a slump though.

    I'll have to check this out next year, too short notice this year, as I had no idea this event took place until my post during the week of.

    The show that killed me the most was last year's RetroCon. There was a guy across from me that was selling a lot of DCUC stuff at good prices. I think I walked away from that show with a Black Canary and Japanese TFA Ratchet

    At Zolocon I got a couple more of those postcard-sized character drawings from Geekboy Press. I usually hit art places first, especially if it's slow. Takes alot of guts to put your work out there for the market to judge.

    There was also a guy walking around trying to sell his loose Combiner Wars sets for quite a bit over retail. I wonder if he found any takers but my guess would be no.
