So I'm interested in hearing what you others have as bargains bins from around the country(or even not US). Im continuously just seeing people say $1 bins. Are your stores not having less then dollar bins? In and around my area I know of stores that have 10 for a dollar,5 for a dollar 3&2 for a dollar.I've pulled some pretty amazing stuff from some of these bins.my last pull at my 5 for $1 store was harbinger 1,x-o 1,magnus 0,1 solar 3 even pulled a caliber presents 1 a few months ago.all nm copies.sure I got lucky and persistence pays off.just seems I see no mention off anything else but $1 bins. Also I haven't been to a con since the 90 atlanta dragon con.what are typical con bargain bins these days?

 $1 bins.  Nothing less.   Occasionally a store has a sale- 1/2 off on back issues, so the $1 bin becomes .50 cent bin.

The Half Price Books in my area has a 25¢/50¢ a book bin.

Never pulled anything fun from it.

A few vendors at the local con will advertise fill a long box with dollar books for $X.xx 

Normally none of this stuff is bagged, and it has a price sticker on the cover.

Your 5 for $1 folks must be brain damaged. Those weren't quarter box books at the height of the valiant crash.  I see 50 cents, 15 for $10, fill a short box for $50, etc. One place did 4 for $1 once a week near me, but they closed.

The LCS here has  a couple of boxes of remaindered newer comics a few months old at 50p each.

Few UK shops stock older back issues any more.

Only place I've seen bargain bins here in the UK, is at comic marts and they consist of 90s comics

Several of our LCS have 25cent bins... usually image dreg

Some of the stores near me have dollar boxes.  Most of them all have silver and bronze boxes priced out also.

Usually $2 or $1 overstocked nm comics from last 7 years, some 50c bent slow sellers from last 5 years that get dumped for 10c on sale days.

There's a 10 cent bin at my store... maybe 500 comics? But they've been there for at least 10 years... still, if Valiant needs some more foil or chromium for future Quantum & Woody covers, I can hook them up.
