my sos it started out very slow no sales wednesday night or all day thursday. every one was looking and comparing prices and condition but on friday everything changed.

i had a so so friday saturday was the best day i ever had at the sos in ten years. i went form the worst show to my very best you just never know.

but on the other hand i look very hard for things to buy 90% of what i was looking for was just junk. the other 10% the prices were just to high for the quality.

i pay top dollar for things when i buy for my collection but i expect top condition and it was not there this year.

i did pick up one japanese sword for my collection but i had it brought there for me .

That's not good news, 90% junk and 10% overpriced, not exactly a winning scenario for success, now I'm wondering if I should even bother going to the Max or not ?
I'll go anyway, just for the sake to see my friends from GDC. grin wink
