I think I snagged the last table  for the swap meet.

I am looking for FOUR COLORS via trade.

I will post the list of the 100+ that I still need  as well as the 200+ that I am looking for upgrades to say F or above

Will be bringing mid grade Marvel and DC's primarily Silver age.  Also random slabs and excess Four Color inventory

Was it like 6 short boxes on a table?  and will I have space behind to bring a small display board?

Looking forward to a great Comic Swap! If you have table space, I just sent out setup details.

If you're attending, there will be a check-in table outside the room and you can just pay the $10 admission fee at the door. 

The room is the "Mesa Verde" room on the first floor of the hotel.

This is a chance to have every dealer at the show shop your inventory, all for only $30. Amazing concept!

Update: all tables sold! You're still welcome to add your name to the waitlist in case of any last-minute cancellations. Remember, you can still bring books to sell/trade as a regular paid attendee for $10, you just won't have table space.

Just finished packing up two short-boxes of raw books: one Marvel and one DC (all Silver/Bronze books). Still sorting through mags to bring, with previously-mentioned slabs.
Not to be THAT guy, but are the "refreshments" still happening? :tink:

Short answer: yes! 

Longer answer: Since the event is being hosted in one of the conference rooms, they aren't able to setup a bar inside the room. However, I will be opening up a tab at the hotel bar during the event ;)

Boardies- if you want to grab a drink from the hotel bar (on us), please grab a drink ticket from us at the check-in desk. This helps us ensure we're not buying drinks for the whole hotel :bigsmile:

BJ and I (Gene) are checking everyone in and we're wearing Shortboxed t-shirts.

Can’t make the comic swap, I’m knee deep in sorting out stuff to bring to the real show. Got stuff I forgot I had. Come by and say Hi on Sunday at the real show. I will be on the back wall towards the end. See you Sunday! 

And, as is my policy, I won’t be open until they open the doors. Just like to give the poor folks like me an even chance...
