AndyFish Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Superworld Comics has been doing an Instagram Live event on Tuesdays at 5:30 which runs usually until 6:30 or sometimes even a second session due to Instagram's limit to one hour broadcasts. I've picked up some deals during the show but most of all it's a fun time because anyone who knows Ted knows he's an interesting guy to talk to. He unveils a wide variety of stuff for sale at discounted prices and then pulls some other items out of a "treasure box". It's fun and fast paced and it reminds me a lot of some of the more entertaining HSN Comic Events they had in the 90s only this one is actually good stuff. Last week I grabbed a Bound Volume of Marvel's King Kull and the week before I got some great horror stuff. Speaking of which, I'm hearing this week's show on Oct 27th is Halloween themed. Tune in it's worth it. Disclosure: I'm not officially connected to Superworld but Ted is my friend and 50% of his employees are my sons, and some years I help out at the Chicago and Rhode Island shows. I've been buying from Ted for 20 years and he is a standup guy. jimjum12 and Primetime 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCOComics Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I don't have Instagram so can't attend, but will back that Ted is a great guy. I've bought a few books from him over the years and enjoy driving up to check out his stock. I'm sure I've met your sons as well.

AndyFish Posted October 27, 2020 Author Share Posted October 27, 2020 Tonight's "show" is Halloween themed, I think a lot of monster comics, and it starts at 6pm Eastern Time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piper Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I assume it works similar to one of those Facebook Live Auctions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevemmg Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 That looks fun, just as you would expect from Ted. I don’t do instagram, so sorry to miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyFish Posted October 28, 2020 Author Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) Not an auction -- he talks about an item and then gives a discounted price on it-- you can claim it or make a counter offer. You can do it publicly via the feed or you can text them with a number they provide at the beginning of the show. It's fun every week, it's like being at a show and chatting with Ted and his team.
