Is anyone going to the card show in White Plains this weekend?

A dealer friend of mine had something come up within the last week, and asked if I would set up in his place at the show so he doesn't lose his front table position. I told him I would, so this will be the second time I ever set up at a card show. The first time was just a rinky dink 1 day show here on Staten Island that doesn't exist anymore, but this is a 3 day show. As you walk through the show doors I should be the first sideways table right in front of the entrance, so feel free to stop by and say hello. Here is a link to the shows website in case anyone would like to attend.

    If you're wearing your star trek uniform, is it okay if I don't stop and say hello?

    Wow, $89.00 for Goose Gossage on a baseball at that show? What was he getting before the HOF?

    The Barry Manilow reference puzzles me. Perhaps you're confusing me with someone else? I think the guy with the Manilow avatar thought the ladies dug Manilow, but found it had no impact at all on the moderator chick, I believe her name is Carly. image
  • Nick good luck! I hope you have fun at the show and make a mint image
  • What in the World is White Plains? I know it must be in NY since your from Staten Island Nick, but I keep hearing of these wierd places like White Plains. All I know is Brooklyn, Staten Island, Manhattan, Bronx and Queens, thats it, that the New York I know image

    I'll wait till they have a show in either Brooklyn, SI or Manhattan image

    i've always thought being up front at a big show might be a bad place to be because even if I see something I want, I'd think to myself 'better not blow my money here, better see what else there is!"

    But you get first chance to make an offer to someone walking through the door with a collection to sell.

    I wish I could attend.

    Front tables are GREAT.

    BUT, you can make money at almost ANY table.

  • I wish I could go, but have other plans this weekend. Boy am I glad I got Goose TTM before he got in the hall. Only in America can Kevin Elster and Doug Sisk get 20 bucks a sig, that is steep.

    I'm hoping to go, unless I'm stuck in the office all weekend.

    For those that have never been to the show, it'sa relatively easy walk from the train station, depending on the weather.
  • Gio you should show up and do a video with Nick!

    I'm sure i'd be in handcuffs before the director yelled action.
  • Nick, it's not that kind of movie, so leave your pink fuzzy cuffs at home this time.
  • I haven't been to that show in over 2 years. I'll be in the Bronx Saturday afternoon and will try to make a detour north. Now I need an excuse to disappear for a few hoursimage

    good luck man!!

  • It seems they have made $20 the standard for your average / marginal player. What happened to the $5 / $10 autograph ... the MLB baseball is worth more unsigned by these guys than signed.
