General admission to the Richardson shows was $10. When he raised it to $15 for one show in April a few years back, it screwed me as a dealer. I lost money on the show. I haven't done another show since.
Tables/booths are wayy too expensive for the amount of sales you get. Plus sales have been down for dealers since folks always want a deal and Ben always adds wayyy too many media guests where attendees spend all of their cash on autographs and have nothing left for the dealers. I'd rather help boost the JMV/Awesome shows and get more folks to attend those with no media guests so I have a much better chance at making money. I want to attend this weekend, but I just don't see my schedule allowing it.

Snagged both new 3-packs and a Micro Force set finally. Woo! I may get some more of the Micros, they're not too bad at 5 for $4.99 on a card.
Still only unwanted Wave 1 singles and those ugly Alpha motorcycles sitting around in back. Who wants to buy a 1000 Rockblocks?

Snagged the Discount Store wave 2 Cobra Trooper today at the Frisco TJ*Maxx. Skipped the wave 2 Snake Eyes.
RE: the Comic Con/Sci Fi Expo this weekend, I went to the show in October last year and snagged a WHALE for $80 with the box! Since I already had Cutter (and the one that came with the WHALE was yellowed) I was allowed to swap for another figure (a MLC Slice). Then he threw in a MLC Dice as part of the deal. Oh, and 80% of my purchases were made via PayPal as most vendors could check their account on their smartphone and I used my iPhone app to send the money. Here is the WHALE with a few of my existing figs displayed with it. So, YES, there are deals that can be found at those shows.

Sounds like I saw the exact same reset. Micro Force, 3 packs, more vehicles and they just moved the Wave 1 figures. After seeing the new 5 POA IM3 and Spidey figures though I'm not going to complain about anything Joe. Good grief those are some BAD figures. Just horrible.
