    Hi,

    Are these the same kind of events that were helf in Wynns Hotel over the past few years? Also €10 deals like the one mentioned above, would they be recent stuff of mostly back issues?

    I cant honestly say as I've never been to the Wynns Hotel one...all i know is this is primarily hosted by Sub city and then who ever buys a table to sell.

    Hi sorry I wont be able to make it, but if you could let me know how you got on it would be great. I only have about 1500 - 2000 comics I want to sell and fear something that far away might not be worth my while especially because I will be relatively small compared to other dealers and shops.
    Do you sell comics all the time or just like me letting go of your collection?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,470 ✭✭✭brianregan09


    Its not on till on sunday lol


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 booladen


    Its not on till on sunday lol

    I just realized and tried to edit before anyone seen but I failed :P . kind of thinking it might be easier to sell my collection to a dealer or something anyway.

    If you happen to be around Derry for the June Bank Holiday weekend the 2D Festival is on
    http://www.cityofculture2013.com/event/2d-festival/

    Not too sure of the venue though. It says the Verbal Arts Centre, but I heard from my comic shop it's in the Millennium Forum, which would be a better venue

    It's in both venues! The 2D festival is usually on in the Verbal Arts Centre, but because Derry is this year's City of Culture the festival, they are also holding events in the Millenium Forum (The 2D Comics Fair and the Heroes & Legends Show). They are also holding some events in Sandino's bar.

    Ah ok. I know I called into the Arts Centre for the first time last year. Didn't stay long because thought was too small a venue since could barely move around it with all the signing tables.
    Though maybe they'll still be in the Arts Centre
