Con Quest

Sometimes when you go a comic book convention and they're selling trades for half off, you talk the vendor down to two $15 Marvel Essentials for $5 each. You feel like you are so awesome for getting the price down to a third of the MSRP.

Other times at the same comic book convention when a different vendor is selling Marvel Essentials for $5 dollars apiece and you want to haggle him down to $8 dollars for a pair and he won't budge because he "has a store," you are angry and feel like you are a failure.

Comic book conventions are weird.
