Do you have some kind of .pdf file or jpg we can use to print out, photo copy then put out there. I have so much reach in the toy/comic conventions and collectors here I can get it out in no time.

Alrighty, I already sent an email a while back but wasn't sure I'd be available for the 'Con, but now I'm sure I will be attending so feel free to put me to work. Also I'm pretty much available to do promotional stuff around Montreal and the South Shore.

I can gladly be of use for stocking downtown Toronto stores with fliers. I am a grad student at U of T, spend a lot of time in the core and can cover stores like Silver Snail, Grey Region, that TF/hobby shoppe on Spadina, etc, and even a couple of key flyering areas of the U of T campus if desired (i.e. the Syd Smith lobby). Emailing my mailing address now.

I'll be too busy searching first for great G1 deals then for parts and junkers I need to volunteer on Con day though, and next year I think I'm going to rent out a table myself.

is it too late to volunteer for the con?
