I haven't made a thread in a while, so here's one :goal:

I ventured off to Expo this spring. I actually went all three days, which I haven't done in years, but was fun.

Friday and Saturday didn't land too much, but I met up with a bunch of great people including Eli, No no no...the other Steve, Frankiefives, Danny from the GTA Saturday show, Ameet, Dan aka tmlfan67, Wayne from Hit the Icebox, Rod aka crankshaft, Dr. B. Price, that crazy owner of the site Jeremy and others, including Beckett notable Stephen LaRoche.

I was able to get about 50 small snap-tight cases for smaller multi-card shipments and 10 25ct boxes for larger ones, alongside some of those delightful pepperoni sticks.

Sunday was a lot more productive in terms of purchases. After selling a NES game (Kung Fu) to No no no...the other Steve for a hefty sum of money (fin), I wandered around and found a bunch of sweet cards for Shanny, Bourque and a few others. Here's the loot!

12-13 SP Authentic Retro 1994-95 SP Inserts Die-Cut Auto Grant Fuhr
13-14 Upper Deck Lord Stanley Heroes Ray Bourque
2012 ITG Superlative 3 Auto/Jersey /30 Bourque
1997-98 Zenith Dare to Tear Z-Gold Brett Hull /100

Jeremy gave me a nice deal on the Fuhr, and as always I thank him for his continued kindness and generosity.

The other three goodies are also pretty sweet.

2003 Pacific McDonalds Atomic Patches Shanahan /100
2011 Dominion Hockey Tape to Tape Shanahan Rangers /19
2013-14 National Treasures Jersey/Auto Lafontaine

The Rangers Shanny was from No no no...the other Steve for an amazing price, and as always, thank you noble Steve :D

The LaFontaine was from Danny and he cut me a nice price for the card. His show is amazing and if you're in the GTA, you should check it out sometime :)

It was hard on my feet, but fun to see so many familiar faces and reminding me about getting back into the hobby more.

Cheers gang, until next time

Some dealer had quite a bit of those McDonalds patches and was selling them for 50% of book! Is that where you got the Shanny one from?
 
Viet-Naim - It's definitely worth a go, just to see how big it is. :) Thanks

Goaliefan - might have been him. He only had a couple when I looked. Maybe there was another guy with more?
