@Thomas
1. True story
2. Nice! I'm sometimes able to find them at $12 but I think those days are past, at least for the time being. They were moving steadily at $15-17 and $18 may become my new out price for them.
3. Sunday might have been good overall, but I spent of the day just hanging out and exploring the venue (aka retracing Kelly's every step) rather than trading, so I might have just missed out.
4. I think the format was part of it, and the turnout wasn't terrible (just not fantastic). I think what hurt us most was that Nashville was in the realm of drivable distances for nearly every good trade grinder on this half of the country, so there were just too many people, not to mention bulk rare guy scaring everyone off.

1. Image is insane in Modern Merfolk
2. I cashed in over 25 images at the event, I may have started waves.. I got them for $12 until about half way through Saturday. Lesson learned.. I will stop verbally asking for any hot cards I am targeting.
3. Saturday was pretty miserable for me, too. Oddly, Sunday was my best day.
4. Do you think the venue or format hurt us? Or was it strictly the low turn out?

Over all, Nashville was a blast! I had a great time hanging out with the QS crew. See you guys next time.

I never thought about going on Friday to avoid running into dozens of other profit traders, I'll have to try that from now on when I go to major events. A profit of $600 for the weekend seems pretty sweet, I only came away around $200 ahead myself, but I also found myself trading with grinders every other trade, so deals were difficult to make sometimes.
