You really showed them anon. They're totally going to stop just because you asked them to.

We might also drop our Mega table and head to Animazement as well. I have no confidence left in Megacon as a vendor anymore. Animazement is just so much better.

>>9298091
You should prob return that asap if you can.

>>9298037
Is it possible you may have the wrong size selected for printout?

>>9298016
Try to print a test label using the software anon, use a full black and white image to test with.

Loving this thermal label printer, I should have got one ages ago. Going to make shipping shit out from etsy so much easier. Def recommend Dymo 4XL

>>9195705
Nah I ship with first class parcel within the states, they do a better job of checking requirements here than they do overseas.

>>9195693
Yea, but it's worth the risk for like, $3 shipping as opposed to $12 and many lost international sales. Sorry that happened anon.

I've been sending my charms in bubble mailers via the first class large envelope route in paypal for ages and not once have any of my 100+ parcels gone missing or returned to me.

AFO-- the confirmed dates for 2017 are June 9th - June 11th 2017. A few vendors have been notified early, but the site was updated without permission so now everyone knows a bit earlier than intended.

Hanari, grats on your award, your costume looked great. I hope you found my friend with the other junkrat keychains.

There will be no more current Broder run cons in Miami. They are staying in Ft.Lauder. And as much as I feel icky about broder-run events, Animate wasn't that bad. I'm sure the attendance will get better when attendees from miami give in and attend next year.

Yes, they did overbook the space they needed and gave artists another entire table for free. And animate only felt smaller because a bit of vendors skipped Animate in order to display at Space Coast CC and FanFest Orlando. Both of which flopped.

Giving these out at our table in the AFO AA. Look for the giant Illidan and Sylvanas prints on our corner booth. Have a great saturday anons!

Lmao yea we know. They're really old and need to be replaced. Hoping to be able to have him quit his parttime job so he can focus on replacing those with new stuff by the end of the year.

Also, he says thanks for the crit! He wants to work on much more.

>>9116611
If they put the AA in the hallways I would gladly pay more for a table. I just dont think they are interested in changing a single thing for 2017.

On a side note.

>One person came to my table this weekend
>She had this large paper bag obviously purchased from said bag lady
>She tells me "I bought this bag but I didn't like the stuff in it.... Could I trade it for some your stuff?"
>I am stunned speechless
>Words are not coming out of my mouth
>Look at partner
>Tells her gently no

The blind bag was bought in the AA a few booths away from me. A literal bag of unidentifiable garbage, not even guaranteed to be artwork.

>>9115564
We certainly did thanks to everyone who loved our stuff enough to purchase from us! I just feel bad for a lot of artists who didn't... There were so many this year.

I really hope we can go back to the hallways next year, and instead of charging attendees more, charge the artists more for their tables.

>>9115522
>The attendance count we announce (just under 12k this year) is unique attendance

>Each person who buys a pass of any form is counted once

>The only glitch to that system is if a person buys a single day pass, and then comes back and buys another one the next day.

I mean, i'm pretty bad at math, but he's explaining this pretty well for us. This does make sense as to why the 12k 'attendance' felt more like 6-8k with a lot buying single day passes for multiple days.

>>9115506
Welp..

>>9115481
Sorry, we're trying to do more out of state cons when they don't overlap our own FL ones though.

>>9115431
Thanks!! The one they have in their ebay store seems to be an opened copy though, damn.

>>9113573
ilu anon, enjoy your charm and buttons

>>9113867
It wasn't so bad, but a lot of the artists did not make much, or any profit (which was sounding like it could have been more than 50% of the AA).

I do think Metro needs to undergo some pricing changes, but I don't think they're open to suggestions for improvement. And the badge fakes here certainly didn't help sway their opinion on those who wanted to attend for free... Now they're just going to double down on badge security for next year. I have no idea what to expect for 2017, but the dates for 2017 are released: Aug 3-6. Right before school goes back into session. W H Y

SON OF A BITCH on the top row of your display is that a Xenosaga Ep1 collector's edition? How did I fucking miss that. Any chance you remember the price offhand?

Hey guys, i'm back for a short bit. I have some preorders for these charms open if you wont be in the Florida convention area to see us in person. I'm also going to be taking on the daunting task of trying to find enough Soldier 76/Mercy stuff to fill an itabag.

I hate to say it anon, but blizzard is not very well known for making cute abundant merch of their products in a timely manner. They're too busy shilling out merch with shitty vector designs of faces, or the logo of the game on clothing (their main seller is apparel). And that's likely the only shit we'll see for a long while.

In other news, FANART Overwatch charms i've finished are: D.VA, Mercy, Hanzo, Mei, Tracer, Reaper. Still have about 7 more to get finished by the 10th.

>>9063183
Thank youuuu

Hopefully I can help out by filling some gaps in itabag merch for hard to find characters.. I also linked another friend here who does polymer character charms. Hopefully she can be helpful for anyone still looking for custom merch of their character at low cost.

>>9063162
He's next on the list with tracer, widow and the rest I can fit in before the next convention

For the anons in the last itabag thread asking about Xenosaga stuff, the charms are in and still waiting on the star accessories. But preorders are up if you are interested.

And they're discriminating based on religious preference on top of it.
