5FINITY comes through with the support yet again. They ran with my "Double the Promos" idea and did 2 for us!

Danielle Gransaull's Succubus Sweethearts: Fire 'n' Brimstone Beach
and
The Female Persuasion 6: Notorious Wild West Women



I think that wraps it up, at 14 promos we're living the Double the Promos theme.
Everyone gets 1 pack free at the door, 1 per person per day.

Dealers get 1 set per table per day as well, so if you can't make it out check out our friendly dealers list and strike a deal for a set while you can!

Great looking promos, thanks for putting those together Ed! Burger Theory was open from 5 to 9 with a limited menu this past weekend, so we might be able to have our dinner as well!

The promos look great.

I will be at the show on Friday. This will be a special show after a long wait. I have about 50 extra promo cards that I have accumulated the last few years. I will bring them with, so find me and I'll give one to people that ask for one.

My extra SW Mando and a few Star Trek cards will be packed up next week if anyone wants to trade.

While supplies last, 1 per person per day in the promo pack at the door!

Thank you Jacob and Chad!

OK, promoter hat off, dealer hat on...

Trying to figure out what people want to see dealers bring...

Pokemon is hot, and not available at retail right now. Worth the space to bring?

Supplies. Are collectors having trouble finding supplies in Chicago? Or is it a Phoenix local problem?

Wax is a no-brainer, I always bring lots, and higher end singles.

As all dealers are probably loading, or starting to this weekend, what do you want them to bring?

Really looking forward to seeing all of the usual suspects as well as welcoming in what should be a hungry crowd considering the buying habits of folks recently.


But Portillo's doesn't have pizza Iggy!!! LOL
