Sure, sometimes.
try to know what you may want ahead of time and what a decent price is though.

Depends on what type of Convention you hit. There is small local comic shows in NJ that only have guys show up with personal comics and comic stores that go to clear out older comics.
I find more of the bigger shows to have much more options then comics. You should look into going to shows like wizard world and NYcomic con, lots to choose from and sunday is deal day. Get to walk away with tons of cheap stuff.
But good luck with your show, might find some good stuff and dont be afraid to haggel. I always ask how much a item is, then ask them to drop it down some!

Make sure you take the time to look over everything you buy and then look it over again to be sure.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Hey Vince, out of curiosity, were you refering to the Clifton and Wayne shows in North Jersey. Because, I've found some great deals on statues there

Ya i went to like 6 of them in the past 3 years and everytime i went there was not one toy or statue. Got some great deals on books, but no statues. I think its called Pug Promotions?
Maybe its my luck that when i go the guys dont bring any statues.

I love these shows, I go every chance I get.
They sometimes (but not always) have great statues deals there (ex: Hard Hero Hawkeye for $50). Most of the good stuff is sold during their auctions.
The Clifton show is actually tommorow
