It's even worse if your shop also sells sports cards, lemme tell ya. <BR/><BR/>The comic book shop I worked at sold sports cards and it was routine to be bombarded with people calling or coming in with their complete set of 1991 NBA Hoops cards ("But it has MIchael Jordan in it, dude!") that ain't worth dick now nor will it ever be. <BR/><BR/>There was nothing I dreaded more than arriving to open up the store only to find one of these crap peddlers waiting for me to look at their crap.Albert Lopezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08598423463431134402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9149241896322652215.post-1696360260426496062008-02-08T23:06:00.000-06:002008-02-08T23:06:00.000-06:00All this lively blogging and no comments!?!?!?

As I sit her watching the just released Roxy Music: The Thrill of It All DVD (and contemplating why being an Anglophile is a bad thing), I'm wondering if the topic of creepy middle aged men playing "popular" card games with the kids will rear its ugly head. Sometimes a comic shop can feel like a pedophile meat market (well, maybe comic shops AND altar boy try-outs).<BR/><BR/>Keep up the quality blogging!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
