Boston Show
Any reports from the Lucky's Boston show? I know it is smaller than the November show but looked like a decent dealer lineup.

I'd give it a C+. I went Friday, was suprised at the lack of a crowd compared to the November show. A lot of vintage dealers who attend in November were missing. Way too much Pokeman and recent shiny stuff; at least for my taste.
Some pre-wat, not a ton other than a few dealers. I was looking for E121/E220/E120s and only saw a few.

I was there this morning. The vintage inventory was a huge step down from the GBSCC Shriners show. I went in when it opened at 9:00a and was back on the road empty-handed by 10:30a.

Very short turnaround time after Strongsville, maybe had something to do with it.

I had a blast on Friday afternoon. Crowd was light and I was there for over 3 hours. Plenty of good vintage out there, albeit it is a step below the November show. Generally speaking, the prices were absolutely putrid. More so on raw than slabbed but slabs are high too. It wasn’t easy to find cards even worth making an offer on. You really gotta pick your spots. I would love to call out a few of the worst offenders but that’s no way to make friends.
I did manage to fill a few holes and not get ripped off too badly. It took patience, negotiating and a willingness to walk away. Overall definitely worth the visit just for the selection and all the stupid sports arguments you can get into with fellow collectors as you peruse the merch. |

Every post needs a card…from the fall show. What’s there from spring?
