Mitch; You've got to stop day dreaming all the time and get back to the real world with the rest of us here. Either that, or can you pick up another copy of Action 1 for us for $1,801?

No way because that's where all the fun is. Driving along the Coast Highway enjoying the view with the wind blowing through your hair and a stack of pre-Robin 'Tec's in the back seat of the car. Ahhh.....it would be so nice to be back in 1991 again. Edited July 28, 2017 by lou_fine thehumantorch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The booth costs less than one month's rent in one of my stores. The extra expenses (housing, food, staff) are similar or less than one month's fixed costs (electricity, phones, payroll) in one of my stores. The sales totals are usually the same or more that one month's sales in one of my stores. As long as that holds true I will continue setting up. Very practical method of looking at it.

For me, THIS is San Diego! The day you don't see Terry's blanket anymore, is the day San Diego is officially OVER!! Terry's got to be grandfathered in at 1970 SDCC dealer table fees or he is like that rich, eccentric uncle of yours or probably BOTH!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe me, he isn't rich. Very eccentric though. He seems satisfied with his take at SDCC. I don't know how. He long ago sold all his good books and his booth is only open about 1/2 the whole show. I think him and Bud Plant are the only dealers who have done every one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how you guys can work with those Signature settings back on. I just retied them again and the posts are completely overwhelmed by the signatures which can take up almost the entire area of the post. Way too hard to filter through everything just to see the actual posted comments themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopKulture Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 I toggle the signatures on and off just to see what cool new stuff people are showing off, but it's an easier browsing experience with them turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
