Should I sell my comic books at a convention?

One way to sell your comic books is at a convention. Now, the difficulty in doing so is in bringing your comic book to the convention. How many comic books can you bring, obviously, to the conventions, and whether or not you're going to sell to a dealer. There's two facets: Are you bringing your comic books to the show to sell to a dealer, who will pay you less than you would if you sold it yourself to another collector, or another way is you can get your own table. The costs of whatever that might be, several hundred dollars, a couple thousand dollars for the show, and then you set up a table and you sell your comic books as the dealer to those that are interested. That obviously is one way to maximize the sales.
