[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 631301, member: 13650"]Good advice from TheNoost. If there's something he's really looking for, it's good to have your list and look up and write down going prices next to each item before you go. You're going to find that it's kind of like an organized chaos once you get there. The ones I've been too recently were packed. Shoulder to shoulder and not easy getting through between the tables.
