What he didn’t realise is because of yourself and joe and gavin and others so many more people are now coming to toy fairs. You are actually helping them in the long run. The whole channel and your approach to it all are awesome don’t let one misery guts make you question any of it. 👍👍👍

SlimeHouse I’ve watched you and been subbed for a year now and I’ve learnt a lot about toys (because of you). You’ve got an insane amount of knowledge!! I saw you at the NEC toy fair but didn’t want to interrupt you and get in your way. Keep up the great content. Ignore the haters, they’re just jealous that they’re not achieving anything like yourself!

Hey mate, cataloguing toys and collectibles is just as important as collecting them! Not everyone can afford or even got hold of some things so sharing and yourself reviewing collectibles is great way to get insight into something. What you do is great and the passion you do it with is same drive as all us collectors! Keep it going bother! 🤘

The irony of his paying customer at that very moment turning to say he was a fan of yours😂 All channels like this do is encourage the hobby and create more sales for vendors of all types. Kudos on you for blurring the guy though man, who knows maybe he's having a bad time of it personally or just has the wrong idea of what you do, maybe he even feels a bit daft about it now. Another great video regardless, I know I'm eager to finally get to a fair after watching your content👍

Sucks you got disrespected out of the blue. These things happen sometimes and you did the right thing disengaging/deescalating. Best not to let them get under your skin because there are so many out there waiting in line to share their negativity and there are so much cooler things to spend your brain power on. Toys will always be more interesting than drama. Another great video as always Theo.

The only issue I ever had at a toy fair was once there was a bin of one dollar figures that I had found a micronaut in, and when I showed the seller I was gonna buy it and a few other $1 figures, he snatched it out of my hand and looked at me and said “not that one!” He gave me a dirty look as if I was trying to steal from him. It really aggravated me because he should know what’s in his bins and honour the price he puts on them. It almost seemed like he had big bins of random toys that he had been buying off of other tables towards the end of prior shows, because there was things within that bin that had separate price tags on them and it was the most random lot ever. Seemed like his way of knowing what was in them was buy denying stuff to be bought when people presented figures to him, because he had a box full of stuff behind him that he put the micronaut into. I didn’t get into it with him but as I was walking away thinking about it more it really rubbed me the wrong way. Seemed like he was selling stuff disingenuously.

Aside from two stray knobs the Doncaster Toy Fair looks like a wicked show! I love the Body Wars line, I'm also trying to complete a loose set, just need Skull Scanner and Laser Lung, but they look so sick on card! Props to you for blurring that dude out and not totally exposing him, but man... no place for that type of attitude at the toy fair. For all we know he's had a shit day and looking for someone to unload on. I film videos at our toy fairs here in Australia and most vendors love chatting toys and welcome the extra exposure they bring to the fairs but unfortunately not everyone sees it that way. Keep up the top shelf videos bro!👊

I'm subscribed to your channel, and I recently discovered this video in my recommendations, so I'm a bit behind. Your videos are genuinely inspiring, entertaining, and exude positivity. Your video had me laughing! As a fellow collector in New York, I share your passion for action figures, sports cards, and comic books. Dealing with vendors specializing in vintage toys, cards, and books can be an adventure. - if you don't appear ready to make a substantial purchase or showcase extensive knowledge, they'll straightforwardly tell you to "beat it!" These vintage vendors seem to have a specific clientele, and they don't shy away from making it clear. I can totally relate to the situation you depicted with the old-timer in your video. Encountering such stern gatekeepers in New York is commonplace. It's as if they've been eagerly anticipating the moment to dismiss someone with a firm "get lost." as soon as you approach their tables. Filming these events is almost impossible because people are concerned that displaying their valuables might attract unwanted attention, as if signaling, "Here's the value of my collection - come steal it." I want to emphasize that I don't believe video creators aim to encourage theft, but the unease of these old-timers is noticeable. Safety concerns are paramount, and they're not enthusiastic about anyone filming their setups. If you were to approach a vintage toy, sports card, or comic book table at a New York convention with a camera, you might find yourself dodging a swing of a baseball bat. Nothing but love for Ya, keep up the good work!

I'm 46 (I don't usually reveal tht information - because I'm a lady and I know I'm old!) and I collect mostly 80s - same as anything else - 80s toys, 80s movies, 80s books, 80s metal - and some 90s and a little modern. Same as anything else. I love your channel and, as you may realise, I'm one of your Patreons. I'm more interested in some of your videos then others, but that's in the way of things. I'm an old-school alternative nerd. I always have been. I always will be. I like your content, and I like you (though I've never met you, going by what I have seen). I'm not your generation and as much as I'm into black folx speaking up for themselves, musically, I'm not that into hip-hop. I wish I was, in many ways, but at the end of the day, I'm not. I'm still happy to support you. I don't care what you spend my sub on - spend it on beer or weed if you want. All good. As a metalhead, just in that subculture generally, there is often a suspicion that anyone successful is a "poser", and I wonder if something similar is going on here. They assume you are fake because you are a KZbinr. I'd guess most of your subs are in their 30s and male? That's fine. I dunno what I'm aiming at here. He may not like you personally for all sorts of reasons. He may have heard not-flattering things about you on the grapevine. He may just be a knob. He may just have been in a bad mood. He may be taking out on you the fact he can't pay his phone bill or his cat died or his girlfriend/boyfriend/theyfriend left him. He may not like your face, or your clothes, or your accent, or the fact you rarely show his favourite toyline or.... I dunno. In the end, don't take it it to heart ,mate. He may just have misunderstood something - like I misunderstood one of your collabs. You put me right on that on that and I accept I jumped to conclusions and I hope we're all good. I've been around the block enough times to have had a few weird reactions that I didn't quite understand. I think you'll be happier if you don't dwell on it. Maybe next time you see him at a show, walk past his stall. Other than that? Water off a duck's back, mate. Chin up

This also happened to me recently at the NJ Woodbridge toy Con. I had one of the TMNT Storage shells and needed the other three. A dude had them for $25 a pop, multiple sets mind you. I went to ask if he would do a deal for $20 each if I bought 3, and he proceeded to cut me off and borderline yell out him rejecting my offer. So loud that people had to double take, loud enough that the nice lady working with him at HIS stand went of of her way to apologize to me later. Funny thing is I offered that deal to multiple sellers that day and even though they all said either no, or needed all 4 to be bought they were all super pleasant. Not a month later I found the 3 that I needed at Target for $12 a pop retail. This is such a niche hobby and small community compared to other interests out there, don’t be a dick for no reason.

Bizarre, to say the least. You were absolutely not arrogant; you did not interrupt the guy; you were polite; you even told him 'when you got a minute' ... incredible attitude. In my 40+ years of collecting, doing shows, doing conventions, I have never seen such an attitude. I mean, I can understand a dealer telling someone 'No, please do not touch the statues, I'll assist you' , or 'please do not touch this, I will bring it out, its fragile'. But we are talking about a toy thats not delicate. He should have given you a chance to check it, or should have handed it to you. Cheers!

Out of curiousity, slime house, do you know anyone that's big into film posters. Watched one of your vids recently from a couple years ago where you went to a movie lot. Was digging through my garage and found 40 film posters, I'd either bought or was allowed to have from years working at a cinema. I have quad posters for The first Avatar, Resident Evil: After Life in 3D, as it says, Hard Candy, rare one of Rorschach for Watchman, Star Wars Clone Wars the movie, Inglorious Basterds and Jennifer's Body. Then one sheets for Iron Man 2, Mallrats, From Dusk Til Dawn, Pirates 1 and 2, Terminator Salvation, Dogma, Death Proof, Matrix Revolutions with Neo and Trinity on it and the Crazies to name but a few. Just lookin to sell to a good home.

Another question: selling Disney feels like a hard market. Do you know anyone that's big on disney collecting. my family and I have decided to sell, just about our entire WDCC Disney classics figurines. They retired the entire collection in 2012 after nearly 20 years. Out the collection, I will be selling my entire Nightmare before Christmas set of 16 figurines. It is very heavy-hearted that I do so but sometimes you just got to do these things in order to pursue other goals.

I've had a few less than friendly encounters with vendors at a con before. Nothing too major, but just an overall attitude of a vender either A) thinking everyone is out to fuck them over or B) just seeming like they'd rather be anywhere than a convention trying to sell their wares. I get that sometimes you're having a bad day and you can't help it, but don't bring that shit to the floor. Attendees are here exclusively to look at a sea of toys, have fun, and buy some stuff. Be chill about it.

There’s just people like that. I went to a SDCC and asked to see a Spiderman comic, the first appearance of the Rhino. I was looking for a nice copy and I saw one at a booth and asked to see it and the guy rolled his eyes and said “Are you a serious buyer?” I said “Not from you” and walked away. He wasn’t helping anyone just sitting there. But anyone with an attitude like that I wouldn’t trust buying key issues from.

Good discussion Theo. I can appreciate it must be frustrating to be a seller, to have lots of people look at your goods but not buy something, however that’s the nature of the beast. Most buyers I would imagine are on a budget so people are going to shop around. It’s very odd from someone who I would have guessed has attended many toy fairs to be rude to potential customers - that attitude won’t get him anywhere. You definitely are not in the wrong. Well done yourself though for not naming and shaming or showing his face, just goes to show you’re the better person. Some great items again at this toy fair. Loved seeing the Godzilla merch.

Nah you have every right to talk about it. I always find it so strange when people are rude and dismissive for no real reason, especially if you're a seller and trying to make money. That guy literally lost a good sale in seconds because of his disrespectful attitude. He could've handled that a hundred different ways better but chose to be a prick about it. As for the viewer comment that's just silly. I personally love watching these toy fair videos because it's nice to see all the stuff out there and maybe discover some cool new stuff I've never seen before. What you choose to buy is your own business and anyone who doesn't understand that probably lacks common sense and the concept of budgeting. Collecting toys can get crazy expensive so it's ridiculous for someone to expect you to buy tons of stuff just for the hell of it.
