Toronto Sports Card Expo

[dxco00]

I want to attend the expo in Nov. It would be my first time attending if I can make it. Can I buy tickets at the gate or do i need to book them? Thanks!

Just buy them at the gate.

$12, or $25 for a weekend pass.

Thanks!

Get there a bit early because there is always a very long line. Although, once it starts moving, it's not too bad.

thanks for the info. Also can we bring cards in there if we want to trade? Sorry just new at how the show works! Thanks!

Yes you can.

You're allowed to bring cards in, to trade or even sell to dealers. You are not allowed to deal with other attendees though. (I've never heard of anyone being removed for it - but there is a sign near the entrace telling you that if you're caught making deals with other people (i.e. NOT dealers) you'll be kicked out).

Even for the redemptions... i.e. Priority Signings from Upper Deck. You don't have to buy yourbox at the show. If you bring in a sealed box of UD Series 1 or Artifacts.... you can go open it at their booth for the redemption (though the line will be LONG).

for buying the boxes I find you always get the best deals at the show for the products as all of the dealers are trying to compete with each other if you are considering doing the redemption. Just what I've found from past experiences.

Enjoy the show bud! Its pretty amazing to see all the booths along with the corporate section and the auto guests! Bring your own water! :)

I am gonna show this year for my first time! Should be exciting from what everyone says. Can you get better deals on singles at the expo opposed to ebay?
