Killer haul Bill. Some really fantastic pieces here. The Ebas Velma really stands out, never would have thought of this. Really love the EVS and Uminga Catwoman pieces.

Cool. I got there at 9:20 Saturday and zoomed in at opening time 10am. From what I heard and saw the line to get in later in the day was a pain! My brother won a shirt and I was well on my way to getting one too but the friggin computer decided to end the quiz prematurely. lol No biggie. I actually enjoyed the con quite frankly.
Anyways, if you're interested, I uploaded pics of the con here:

Great stuff!! Were any of these pre-arranged, or did you set them all up there?

Sounds to me like he set them up on Saturday and went back on Sunday to pick them up.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

#1 lots of great pick ups BUT WHAT??? you have to prove something to pay someone for art now.. thats a total crock or $hit you as an attorney I would have thought would have said WTF??? Sorry but what is with artists now... I am not a flipper nor do I belive in it BUT if your paid for a service its over your out of it what the person who paid you for is theirs to do with as they please.

4½ hours? Plus all that evidence to boot? I agree with Batfan in not understanding this. Once you pay for it, it's your property to do with as you wish. Oh well...as long as you got the piece you wanted.

the test had to be finished in 60 seconds. I wrote down the answers so we won on the second try.
Friday morning, non-VIPs did not get in for quite a while. I am sure some where still in line at 1 pm
