    Bennett had an amazing time in your booth. Finding the Hornet comic was BY FAR the highlight of his day. He’s been waiting all week for this video to drop because, as he said, “I’m going to be a CZcams star!” 😂

    • @TheComicsDen
      @TheComicsDen  Před rokem +6

      😂🥰 it was great getting his reaction! So happy we had what he was looking for.

      Free Comic! Sweet!!

  • @josephbarbera9220
    @josephbarbera9220 Před rokem +41

    Nice job! The highlight of the video was the little kid finding Red Hornet and to see the thrill in his eyes and in addition you gave the comic to him for free. That’s what it’s all about. Also nice to see you have developed a fan base as well and it paid off for both of you!! 👍

    pick up some crystal clear resealable slab bags for the slabs you put up for sale. They are much easier to look at and can be seen from a distance.

    I shopped your booth and thought it was a great booth. Lots a selections, something for every price range.
    Can't wait to do it again.

  • @timdanner2596
    @timdanner2596 Před rokem +4

    Can't go wrong with pre-code horror Haunt of Fear. Easier to acquire when doing a trade too, especially if you're parting with duplicates or slabs that you've had a hard time moving.

    Who's that handsome fella at 10:02? 🤣Fantastic guys! Hope the show was above board with your expectations. Tom is such a great guy and puts on quality shows for COMICS. I think you nailed it with the setup design. Using the dollar bins as bait is key IMO. It works on me often. Then I look at the wall. Then I hit the individually priced books. Love what you did for the young collector as well. Sowing the seeds of future fans of the hobby. Nice work. We'll be at Mega-Con the whole show. Hope to see you there. Be well.

    • @TheComicsDen
      @TheComicsDen  Před rokem +1

      See you at Mega-con Byron! Thanks you❗

    @fstgeorge Před rokem +6

    So happy for you both! Awesome of you to hook up that kid with that cool comic and make his day! Can't leave without giving you major props for picking up that beautiful pre-code horror book! (My personal favorite category of comics!) Super cool!!! I'm up on the north east coast, but I'm making it a priority to get down to Florida for one of the shows you'll be attending this year. Thanks so much as always for the great content and for being such awesome people!

  • @onarewzangan5366

    I love the vibe on this video so much! Just a bunch of comic book collectors digging around and buying! I can't wait for our Comic Con here in Manila! Super HYPED!
    I also love the guy at 9:55 the disappointed "MAN" I feel that so much!

  • @goldenageguru
    @goldenageguru Před rokem +3

    Oh man, this brings back so many memories. The first one or two shows are always an eye opening experience. You learn so much so quickly about setup. Great job guys.

  • @charliedogg7683
    @charliedogg7683 Před rokem +8

    Frenetic activity, sales all over the place, trades, Angelo scores a slabbed EC and that's one happy kid: a great video that really captured the event. Congratulations Angelo and Sarah, your first show as vendors sure looked like a success. There were too many comics for me to comment on but the EC is definitely a highlight. Did Sarah find any Vampirella issues she needed? Did she even have time to look? Great work guys.

    • @TheComicsDen
      @TheComicsDen  Před rokem +2

      Thank you so much! No vampirella unfortunately but the Haunt of Fear was an awesome addition. Have a great weekend! 😊

    You guys are the best!! 🌈⭐️❤️ I love how transparent you are with how much you made too!! It really helps us get an idea what to expect if we were to enter into the comic reselling game…if all the hard work involved is worth it.
    You guys deserve all the success for being honest and good-hearted sellers! There ain’t many around! You are the rare few I have seen!
    Keep up the great work!! :)

    • @wylier
      @wylier Před rokem +1

      Keep in mind that it costs money up front to sell stuff at your average con. That eats up into potential profits. The only way to avoid that overhead is to sell stuff at a self created garage sale.

  • @tylercheung4295

  • @sovereignruler
    @sovereignruler Před rokem +4

    I'm glad that the show was a huge success for the both of you. It couldn't happen to nicer people. Great to see you make that trade for the Haunt of Fear. What impressed me most about it is how quickly you decided to do the deal. When a good deal comes along, you're supposed to pounce on it and you did. Also, who knew the Hornet could make a young man so happy? He'll never forget it. It's wonderful to see. By the way Angelo, be cautious about revealing your take at the end of a show. That's very personal stuff. We're living in troubled times. Be careful my friend. All the best!

  • @anthonyg-7934

    Great video. It is my opinion that every comic collector needs to do at least one show like this. That way they learn what is involved and have a whole new appreciation for sellers that participate.

    This is by far my favorite video. The little kid did it for me and you made his day bro, to me that just shows the person you are and your character. Don’t lose that in this CZcams hype and stuff. Also you work hard as I’m seeing you setting up and the time lapse taking it down you work hard and it shows I hope at the end it all pays off for you and your wife you guy deserve it!
