And I think those prices were a bit higher than in the store, but just slightly. When I started going there in 77 T206s were 1.50 each and most HOFers were 10. Some pretty good growth of prices there too, even if it was only 2.50 in the store, nearly double in 3 years is pretty good.
Of course, my entire budget was about $10/week at the time.
My first two George C Millers were $3 each, and I had to call home and convince mom to bring me some cash.
I hung out there a lot after school (graduated in 81 too) Like almost every day. When I went to my first show they shooed me away from their table since I had seen or could see their stuff at the shop.
