I did get a ton of great deals this year. As of now they will all go into my PC though haha but I am selling about 10K worth of Funko Pops from my collection to help pay for it all. And hopefully I can do it again a bunch of times.

I hate Cons because I spend to much and when I finally get home , I realize I didn't get such a good deal. You on the other hand, go through each bin methodically and get the deals Just discovered your channel and enjoyed binge watching your uploads

@pop-comics

Жыл бұрын

Its really easy to over spend on bad deals at cons, many thing are way too over priced. My best advice is to become an expert in a couple of series, really get to know their prices and values. Once you have that you can check any booth and you check for those comics. If they have them priced higher then they should be I assume the whole booth is over priced and I move on. If they are priced at market price then I might dig a little to see if they have a few things I am actually looking for. And if they have priced things at a steal I dig in and grab anything I might want. If you can learn when to walk away from a booth you can become more efficient at finding the deals. Its not 100% accurate but I assume the whole booth has similar pricing based on the comics I check and already know values well. Happy you found the channel enjoy.

Having collector mentality on anything is a dual sword... go all in in the beginning and search n spend like crazy, but sooner or later get bored or uninterested.. then when go to sell you are like "why did I spend all that money?"

I went through almost all of them and was pretty disappointed with the stack I ended up with, but don't remember seeing any of the 12 centers you pulled on Friday. I either overlooked them somehow (very possible), or they had reloads ready. If thats teh case I regret not going through them again after Thursday! You pulled some nice stuff.

Its definitely worth a quick spot check at cons though, I rechecked their booth a few times just to see if anything caught my eye that I missed.

So I would plan on two or three breaks during each day to offload short boxes to these nearby storage places. Then after the con you can recover them all at your convenience.
