Mississauga Collectors Expo Roundup
It's the first time I attended one of these expos and I bought early access for my son and I, not really looking to buy but to avoid having my son trampled by people during general access. My observations...
Good...
- $5 extra for early access is worth its weight in gold. It was so crowded during general access that I found it difficult to look at anything.
- Having a cute kid helps. Dealers gave him discounts.
- Some rare pieces around. I saw loose POTP Novastar for $25, MISB CW Sky Lynx for $35, loose Siege Jetfire for $75.
Bad...
- Most dealers are asking for the moon. I saw one dealer asking $130 for Siege Refraktor Reconnaissance set... and someone bought it.
Overall...
- My son and I had an awesome time. I didn't pick anything up for myself, but my son picked up a something for him and his younger brother from the loose boxes.
- We'll definitely head to TFCon next year.
