Expo Bargain Bin Hunting

[ovechkincrosby0887]

With the Expo right around the corner, looking to see if there are any members setting up at the expo that will have bargain bins - so I can come looking as opposed to wondering around.

Looking to fill my own bargain bins for local shows. Need to be under $1 or $2 for most. But most looking for inserts/parallels of ovie/crosby/matthews/mackinnon/mcdavid/gretzky/roy etc. I know vendors will have prices higher earlier and probably get those - but if anyone wants to pre-arrange something, I'm happy to discuss.

Thanks
Mike

You won't find as many bargain bins as used to exist at the Expo a decade ago, and most certainly not at those prices as it would no longer be worth it for the dealers. You should check out your small local shows if you still have any.

I do the same thing at the expo but as noted above - it's become much more scarce the last few shows - real estate is just too expensive for people to put out that type of stuff. I was buying cheap inserts on COMC and using those, but with tariffs... nope.

Good luck to both of us in trying to find what we want there!

Yea the "bargain bins" at the expo were a joke as expected. bunch of dollar cards in a $10 value box lol

There were a few vendors who were very helpful in giving bulk discounts. Got about 50-75 cards from value bins for between 0.50 and 0.75. Gotta ask and when people have many of these bins or small amounts that don't fit what else they have, they are more motivated to move them.
