true; going to cons can cost a lot of money. If I was going for myself
mainly and nearby where I didn't need to spend money on airline
tickets, hotels and rental car, I'd help everyone free and probably
not buy extras to sell. But sometimes, you go knowing you're spending
a couple grand and that's just nuts by yourself. Unless you're rich.
So I can see people going and buying stuff to sell. I have and still
would as I am not rich. Funny though, my family seems to think so
lately! LOL

Anyway, there's nothing wrong with selling something you bought. It's
yours to do with as you will.

I certainly don't go to cons or events with the intent to get
signatures to sell.

But that doesn't mean it's a bad thing that others do it. Sometimes
there is no other way to get an autograph, and I have to buy it from a
dealer.
