But even then it can be pretty pointless unless you are really lucky and get there at the right time. Marvel legends disappear as well as star wars almost instantly. Those are the big ones.
And to add to the frustration, Hastings is going out of business so there really are not any other places to shop other than big retail or comic shops that have to scalp to keep the lights on.

I'm in Houston gentleman and I stand by my statements
Nothing Star Wars is being scalped nor is anything difficult to find with even a modicum of effort
