Awesome pick-ups! I’d say that was a successful con!

Thank you kindly! Hopefully I'll still be able to grab some of the other big books later this year!

X-Cellent scores! The X-Men are my main series and I put in a lot of effort to pick up some Silver and Bronze Age issues I was missing within the last few years. Besides the reprint issues, which I haven't started on, I have a complete run from 94-544 and from the first 66 issues, I'm only missing 6. I love Sentinel covers too. Issue 98 was one of the first older issues I ever picked up. Issues 57 & 59 have dope covers too. Happy comic hunting for the rest of your run!

That's awesome, Geno! You're definitely further ahead than I am with the collection. Best of luck to you with finishing the run! And yeah, those reprints are definitely the last thing for me to complete. I still can't get over the prices of some of them. They're just reprints!

the Toronto con comic prices are always over priced. but...if you have the time, patience and a list you can find some great prices in their discount sections.

Absolutely. It's where I found my Uncanny X-Men #266 for $2! Someone done goofed up! CBA, which I mentioned in the video, definitely had the most normal prices at the convention.

Angel's suspenders went from red to blue from 57 to 58. I hope someone got fired for that blunder.

Y'know, unfortunately colourists were never credited in these early issues. If anyone was actually fired, we'll never know!

crazy pricing by vendors, yikes. btw, who was the vendor where you took that screen shot? They actually have a book im looking for. thx
