I had a gentleman come to my table and grab a zeenut with a coupon. I think I had $550 on it cause I paid $400. I always leave room to haggle on most items.

He said this is worth about $100 why is the price so high

I said you may be correct but I paid too much for it.

Back in the 80s and 90s, zeenuts with coupons were super tough on the East Coast and commanded good money.

I think a few recent finds with the coupons have saturated a few of the zeenut years.

Yes I will probably lose money on this one but I lose sometimes. The idea is to try to win more than you lose in the sales game, that way I can save up a little to buy something neat I like for myself.

I try to carry oddball rare stuff that you won't see on several other tables in the same show. And I enjoy talking to the customers usually.

Oh well, like I said, looks like the Philly area is in trouble for shows.
