Setting Up as a Vendor for the First Time at a Comic Book Convention!

[@gobucs009]

Bennett had an amazing time in your booth. Finding the Hornet comic was BY FAR the highlight of his day. He’s been waiting all week for this video to drop because, as he said, “I’m going to be a KZbin star!” 😂

[@TheComicsDen]

😂🥰 it was great getting his reaction! So happy we had what he was looking for.

[@chunter3882]

Free Comic! Sweet!!

[@Doc_Dooom]

Its nice to know there are still some kids who collect comics.

[@josephbarbera9220]

Nice job! The highlight of the video was the little kid finding Red Hornet and to see the thrill in his eyes and in addition you gave the comic to him for free. That’s what it’s all about. Also nice to see you have developed a fan base as well and it paid off for both of you!! 👍

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you!

[@jameskm03]

Special moment. You just created a comic fan for life!

[@Luke-xb9nf]

Awesome wish I lived near you guys!!

[@dansxmencomics]

Some of those fellow vendors seemed so supportive and kind. Fun to watch, thanks for sharing

[@chadfiebelkorn3799]

Very cool of u giving that kid that comic for free.

[@vernonhunker4921]

Congrats you guys. Pretty cool you giving that kid the book he was looking for at no cost.

[@harrymesner4077]

I shopped your booth and thought it was a great booth. Lots a selections, something for every price range. Can't wait to do it again.

[@ILikeCollectibles]

Good trade IMO. I would rather have the Haunt of Fear too. Great job on the video guys.

[@macorourke2222]

Congratulations on Your 1st comic book convention! Great video Brother and Sister. Thanks for sharing Your passion and adventures. From Toronto Ontario Canada 😀 👍 ❤️ 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 ♥️ 🎉🎉👏👏👏👏🎉🎉💯💯💯💯

[@lwyatt82]

Those were some nice dollar books

[@DAN_SPL]

Very cool when you gave that kid his book for free! I doubt he will ever forget that.

[@wilverdornell8]

Great video seeing the kid's reaction. Classy move. Thank you.

[@TheWolverine2099]

Very awesome watch !! Great job at the booth ! Awesome setup 👏

[@toddsimmons4679]

Congats on your first show.looked like a good time

[@MarkieDstudios]

This is by far my favorite video. The little kid did it for me and you made his day bro, to me that just shows the person you are and your character. Don’t lose that in this KZbin hype and stuff. Also you work hard as I’m seeing you setting up and the time lapse taking it down you work hard and it shows I hope at the end it all pays off for you and your wife you guy deserve it!

[@goldenageguru]

Oh man, this brings back so many memories. The first one or two shows are always an eye opening experience. You learn so much so quickly about setup. Great job guys.

[@TheComicsDen]

Thanks Guru!🙏

[@joshneff2367]

The haunt of fear is a sick cover!

[@willmorgan5692]

Nice to see the behind the comic show stuff hope you both have many successful finds and steals

[@Thynqikan]

pick up some crystal clear resealable slab bags for the slabs you put up for sale. They are much easier to look at and can be seen from a distance.

[@howardweinstein1324]

When you have other dealers buying your books in stacks, you know their going to resell them for more money. Like sharks smelling blood.

[@chunter3882]

Nice Big Crowd! Glad to see all of your hard work is paying off.

[@fstgeorge]

So happy for you both! Awesome of you to hook up that kid with that cool comic and make his day! Can't leave without giving you major props for picking up that beautiful pre-code horror book! (My personal favorite category of comics!) Super cool!!! I'm up on the north east coast, but I'm making it a priority to get down to Florida for one of the shows you'll be attending this year. Thanks so much as always for the great content and for being such awesome people!

[@michaelrosas6503]

So happy for you guys nothing but UP!!!!

[@iceman2796]

Probably your best video, really enjoyed it. I would love to go to Mega Con (sounds like your going to be there) but C2E2 here in Chicago is the same weekend. Keep up the great work!

[@peterbagshaw5863]

Whoot Whoot over 3K for the First Show. Awesome job you two. Keep on Hunting they Say. Be Well & Safe ALL.

[@theretrosavage]

Always great to see the behind the scenes for shows or events like this

[@alienboytoys]

You guys are the best!! 🌈⭐️❤️ I love how transparent you are with how much you made too!! It really helps us get an idea what to expect if we were to enter into the comic reselling game…if all the hard work involved is worth it. You guys deserve all the success for being honest and good-hearted sellers! There ain’t many around! You are the rare few I have seen! Keep up the great work!! :)

[@wylier]

Keep in mind that it costs money up front to sell stuff at your average con. That eats up into potential profits. The only way to avoid that overhead is to sell stuff at a self created garage sale.

[@fedenciogonzalezjr9051]

Omg the batman fan old guy looking for that run lol 😆 😂 🤣 was priceless 🤣 Mannnnn Im just going to give that up lol 😆 😂 😄

[@matts3137]

Dudes! Booth looked awesome! Wish I was there. Congrats guys!

[@TheComicsDen]

Thanks! 🙏

[@anthonyg-7934]

Great video. I love going to conventions and seeing how the process goes from start to finish is helpful and inspiring! Keep up the good work and it was great to see that kid find that book he loved so much 😀

[@Thynqikan]

Great video. It is my opinion that every comic collector needs to do at least one show like this. That way they learn what is involved and have a whole new appreciation for sellers that participate.

[@petergallman1279]

What a great video! Dollar bin digging is always fun.

[@timdanner2596]

Can't go wrong with pre-code horror Haunt of Fear. Easier to acquire when doing a trade too, especially if you're parting with duplicates or slabs that you've had a hard time moving.

[@comicsthejway]

It was so nice to finally meet you guy’s after watching your videos for so long. I grabbed a few books from you so thank you so much for that. I wish much more success for you in the future and can’t wait until next year!

[@robdienzo3388]

Great video of having a booth at a show! Congratulations on your successful time at selling! 👏 Kudos on giving the kid that comic for free! That was awesome!

[@mathchemboss7487]

Great show guys, nice representation of a day in at a small convention. And 3000 dollar with 900 attendants is pretty good! Keep it on!

[@TheComicsDen]

🤜🤛

[@charliedogg7683]

Frenetic activity, sales all over the place, trades, Angelo scores a slabbed EC and that's one happy kid: a great video that really captured the event. Congratulations Angelo and Sarah, your first show as vendors sure looked like a success. There were too many comics for me to comment on but the EC is definitely a highlight. Did Sarah find any Vampirella issues she needed? Did she even have time to look? Great work guys.

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you so much! No vampirella unfortunately but the Haunt of Fear was an awesome addition. Have a great weekend! 😊

[@BronzeAgeBryon]

Who's that handsome fella at 10:02? 🤣Fantastic guys! Hope the show was above board with your expectations. Tom is such a great guy and puts on quality shows for COMICS. I think you nailed it with the setup design. Using the dollar bins as bait is key IMO. It works on me often. Then I look at the wall. Then I hit the individually priced books. Love what you did for the young collector as well. Sowing the seeds of future fans of the hobby. Nice work. We'll be at Mega-Con the whole show. Hope to see you there. Be well.

[@TheComicsDen]

See you at Mega-con Byron! Thanks you❗

[@justinvickclt]

Yall's booth was bumping! Congrats on a great show.

[@philcamacho127]

Wonderful first seller con! You met some nice collectors too. I'm sure you both can't wait until the next one. Great vid 👊👍

[@midwest_comic_fan]

Congratulations on a successful first show!!!!

[@jeromehernandez9360]

Great video, cool to see the sellers perspective. Thank you Angelo and Sarah!

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you‼️

[@ccculture9681]

Good job. Fun video to watch.

[@tylercheung4295]

The Warhammer book is sitting comfy above my desk right now! Hope you guys try that Indian place out eventually!

[@TheComicsDen]

😂👍 Thank you so much for stopping by the booth! We haven't had time yet but its definitely on the list! Have a great weekend!

[@sovereignruler]

I'm glad that the show was a huge success for the both of you. It couldn't happen to nicer people. Great to see you make that trade for the Haunt of Fear. What impressed me most about it is how quickly you decided to do the deal. When a good deal comes along, you're supposed to pounce on it and you did. Also, who knew the Hornet could make a young man so happy? He'll never forget it. It's wonderful to see. By the way Angelo, be cautious about revealing your take at the end of a show. That's very personal stuff. We're living in troubled times. Be careful my friend. All the best!

[@dsecas1]

Great job guys! Keep hustling!

[@DannyD_GoF]

Congrats both and good luck at future cons. Keep up the great content.

[@TravisLaurenceNaught]

Outstanding first day! Y'all were super prepared! Made me even more excited about my next show (April 1/2nd, Boise Idaho)

[@cardandcomiccollective]

Absolutely awesome guys...congrats for your first show, hopefully this is a step to big things to come for you.

[@jimwojton7369]

Nice job on your first show. Congratulations!

[@randallbarnhard6592]

Great Job!! Hope all ends well. Wish i was in that part of the country.

[@theClubberLang]

Glad yall did good at your first show. Keep doing awesome videos.

[@yiusanglaw9825]

Awesome Good show 👏👏👏👏👏

[@zheik2866]

Hiii, i eecently discover your channel, i am a manga guy, but i love your content! Keep up with the good work guys! Greeting from Chile ✌️🇨🇱

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you!

[@deckerrobert7025]

Keep up the great videos!!! Congrats on your 1st convention!!!

[@bonafidecomics5497]

Tom is one of the best dealers and even better person! Sounds like you guys great time and hopefully I see you at a show in the near future! Keep making great content and being a great representation of the community.

[@cp3allday28]

Great job guys! Fun video to watch!!

[@larrysmith7301]

Great video, IMO, you have the funniest comic videos. Always enjoy watching.

[@pabs3411]

LOL! 68k comics! Her- "my house", they have no furniture! This was awesome guys. I am so happy for both of you. I will definitely have to check you guys out next time you set up.

[@TheHideAway237]

You guys were fantastic to deal with and look forward to your next con...and don't forget I still need that Alex Ross Wonder Woman CGC...LOL

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you so much for coming by our booth! We are on the hunt for it so if we find one we will definitely let you know! 🤣👍 have a great weekend

[@DutronComics]

Looks like you guys had an AMAZING first show!!! I remember being a vendor at my first show 30is years ago. Watching this show is giving me the itch to do it again soon!

[@onarewzangan5366]

I love the vibe on this video so much! Just a bunch of comic book collectors digging around and buying! I can't wait for our Comic Con here in Manila! Super HYPED! I also love the guy at 9:55 the disappointed "MAN" I feel that so much!

[@AegisComicsAlaska]

Awesome! Amie and I enjoyed watching the entire video! Thank you for sharing your experience with us! Subscribed👍🏽

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you so much! Have a wonderful week😊❗

[@leeniren3706]

Good job guys. Hope you had fun.

[@TheComicsDen]

Thanks so much Lee! 🥰🙏

[@rafe496]

Great vid, fun time!!! Congrats on the $ too, gotta eat and pay the mortgage.

[@markalbert8135]

Awesome video as usual! I always look forward to these. It looks like Florida has a strong comics scene going on. I totally agree with that Haunt Of Fear trade. I think you made a good decision on that in the long run. And you really made that kid's day giving him that Red Hornet comic. He'll never forget that.

[@pingadol1555]

That was fun. Great job/video.

[@maxmilian7447]

Respect. ✌️

[@fomoscomicsandpopculture]

Great video! Thanks 👍🏽

[@robphoenix1182]

You guys did great!

[@boredinibiza]

[@TheComicsDen]

[@SeanHogan.]

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you!

[@TheMarketplaceofideas1979]

This looked like an awesome show.

[@michaelvalentine9377]

Nice job on your first comic book show. Keep up the great work.

[@paulpurvis2926]

very cool I have seen a video like this before !!!! so well done!!!

[@dr.mckillu3799]

Just got into collecting myself and you guys are definitely one of my favorite channels on the subject! Going to my 1st show in March!

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you! Have a great time and hopefully you find everything your looking for!😊👍

[@enriquemaldonado2142]

Nice job for your first show. Congratulations

[@TheComicsDen]

Thanks!😊

[@Journeyintothunder]

Love video. Much more engaging content than just watching the top 10 key comics. Also loved you making that kids day with the free red hornet comic. He will be a collector for life after that.

[@anthonyshealy]

Georgia is so close to Florida, I have to meet you guys soon!

[@georgetucker9780]

Awesome job guys 👏👏👏

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you!

[@cuttykev1]

Great show!

[@Matt_Likes_Comics]

A fire performer at a comic book convention. A very expensive accident waiting to happen.

[@wylier]

Someday an attendee is gonna say "I went to the con and got 'burned' - literally!". Lol

[@comicsbythebay]

The Sensational Hornet for free is what made this video! Great show, great vendors, bummed I didn't get to meet up with you guys there cause the crowd was great, but thanks for sharing this video!!!

[@TheComicsDen]

Thanks for watching! Have a great weekend 😊

[@mattkenna5419]

So nice to see people getting the hookup you two are most dope! Really nice setup glad to see you get the golden age book you wanted; I hit subscribe.

[@TheComicsDen]

🤜🤛

[@CC021186]

Awesome job!

[@stefanagnone1793]

Hope you had a successful day👍

[@willemdafreind4994]

Nice one guys! So cool you have $1 books, me personally I'd spend $100 on dollar books rather than a slab, my LCS only has pre-priced long boxes so I'd kill to look through those haha

[@user-jb6if007gr]

Time to move to Florida.

[@TheComicsDen]

🤣👍

[@spideyshiz]

Love you guys so much! Congrats on the success ❤️🤘

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you!🥰🙏

[@mikem3543]

Man, what a great video. Thanks!

[@matthewskillo8577]

Wish they had cons like this near me in upstate NY. Awesome vid guys!

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you!

[@Godovgrind]

Congratulations

[@CBs_Bill_from_Montana]

I love watching you guys. Thanks! Instant subscribe. Can’t go wrong with EC either! Not a great deal but I woulda done it in a heartbeat too.

[@TheComicsDen]

😊🙏

[@zaymer9000]

It was nice meeting you guys. Stumbled upon this video because my bro raul is on here. :)

[@heavycrown005]

Your videos are FUN just PURE COMIC BOOK FUN! :D

[@TheComicsDen]

Thank you!

[@davidallen2133wolfy]

Great vid you guys are great you made that kid’s day may God bless your endeavors

[@dragonball3166]

First comic convention I went to was like this one my cousins went along they where bored and unimpressed , but they impressed by comic con with celebrities I meet at comic con and they watch comic book live action movies tv shows

[@eddieriordan3351]

I wish I knew..I mightve made the trip up..but honestly shirt boxes are soo much better fir shows

[@BTY11]

Your CBCS 9.8 Peach cover for the CGC 5.0 Haunt of Fear was a fair trade. You made out better by not giving up the Peach 9.8

[@TheComicsDen]

🤜🤛

[@grendel0013]

That was so awesome that you had that book that kid was looking for! And then to let him have it for free must have made his day. 🙂 Now if you guys can just locate a CGC 9.8 Grendel (1983) #1 and #2 for me, I would be stoked!!! I've been searching for those for 20 years now. 😝
